Great website for news on militarization within our schools: dignityinschools.org

Republican zero-tolerance philosophy got this idiocy started. The usual result for a wrong solution which has the advantage of appealing to simple minds with power.

Thom, you quoted I believe "Healthfacts. org" saying that two eggs are as bad for your heart as smoking. I was surprised you would do that. This is sensationalism based on an ASSOCIATION, which is not cause and effect. Far from it. You should look at a clinical study (clinical is the gold standard) that shows little relation to dietary cholesterol from eggs and serum cholesterol.
I am seriously disappointed. This is not something I expect from you; an educated and informed individual.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
