Thom has told the story about the "Caucus Room Conspiracy" as has many online publications. I have never seen anyone reference PBS Frontline to this event. As an FYI, PBS Frontline did cover this event in an episode called "Inside Obama's Presidency" which aired 1/15/2013 and can be viewed online. http://video.pbs.org/video/2325679851/

I am only putting this up here because I have not seen this material referenced anywhere. The first 10 minutes covers the "caucus room" event and interviews Frank Luntz and Newt Gingrich. The depth of depict on the part of the republicans in this meeting and the reality that this event would effect on the "Tanking" of the country as well as the borderline treasonous nature of this agreement was not developed in the piece. But the event was at least admitted to and it is now out there on the world web.

Falwell Jr. urged students at Liberty U. to get guns to protect themselves on campus.

Question:

How effective would this be in deterring suicidal jihadists who expect to die anyway?

Jesus would be proud!

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

Hello All

Please follow us across to hartmannreport.com - this will be the only place going forward to read Thom's blog posts and articles.

From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
Eric Utne, Founder, Utne magazine
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."
Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties and director, Peace and Justice Resource Center.
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
Paul Hawken, coauthor of Natural Capitalism and author of The Ecology of Commerce
