From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
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 Cracking the Code:
"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."
This is weird. The Wikipedia article on George Gurdjieff, cited in today's newsletter, mentions a "Thomas de Hartmann" (1885-1956), natively named Фома́ Алекса́ндрович Га́ртман (Foma Aleksandrovich Gartman). I know "Фома́" is the cognate of "Thomas", and "Га́ртман" is surely an attempt to transliterate "Hartmann", though usually they use "Х" instead of "Г" to approximate the /h/ sound.
