A couple friends of mine have been listening to a history of Rome by a man named Dan Carlin. (I think it's a podcast.) They have both been rather disturbed by the parallels in how Rome went from a republic to an empire.

Herman Cain's accuser #5 said she had on a skirt and a blouse. What did Herman have on? I'm pretty sure it was a hard-on.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
Occupy Seattle has a demand. That the Seattle City Council vote to remove the city's money from Well's Fargo to a local Washington State bank or credit union. One of the council members has introduce this idea to the agenda for next Monday at 2:00 PM. If it passes, it could be the start of something big. I would love to see local and state municipalities remove their funds from Big Banks. And of course, no mention in the local newspaper.
