Attack on all fronts
Hopefully Obama will see the insanity of approving the Keystone pipeline, but Joe Biden states that he is in the minority in opposing the pipeline. So, just as teh Republicans added a "poison pill" (75 years of prefunded retirement benefits) in their attempt to kill the Post Office, we need to be creative in case the Obama administration approves this short-sighted, planet-killing pipeline!

Images of Thom
Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From Screwed:
"Once again, Thom Hartmann hits the bull’s eye with a much needed exposé of the so-called ‘free market.’ Anyone concerned about the future of our nation needs to read Screwed now."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
Poison Pill for Keystone Pipeline?
Congress needs to pass a law that states any products derived from the tar-sands oil shipped through the keystone pipeline can only be sold in the United States. The refineries should not be allowed to export the gasoline refined from the tar sands. If we are going to put our aquafers in jepordy, and expose our citizens to the pollution, then that "bitumin" should be taxed as oil and, at the very least, the gasoline produced must be used to end our dependence on foreign oil!
