From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
Republican men don't seem to understand that rape doesn't consist of a woman saying no after the fact. It involves violence and usually betrayal of trust. It leaves psychological and physical damage. It's a crime and the rapist is responsible for it, not the victim. How someone like Richard Mourdock can blithely say it's god's will and god's gift if such a horrible thing results in pregnancy (which itself is not easy to deal with) is beyond my comprehension.
