Contrary to what the caller at 1:38 said, Greece was given money under the Marshall Plan, and in fact was with Turkey in receiving the first payouts.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
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 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."
I was in Madison last night and so impressed by everything Bernie and John Nichols said. I am especially excited that he considers this a movement and mentioned reaching out across party lines. He is honest about needing a good congress to be effective. A friend of mine has created a website focused on getting good people elected to Congress. He has laid out a detailed plan and listed the tasks that need to be done. Now all we need to do is attract volunteers. I gave information about this to Bernie's staffers and hope the get it to him. Please check out www.TakingBackOurHouse.org and if you like what you see tell Bernie about it.
