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.

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:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
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."
