Third Party Scare: You would have us vote for the party whose president is killing little kids in drone strikes or and selling munitions to Saudi Arabia which does the same. I think that if the middle class would have had the common sense to vote only for third parties to tell both the republicans and democrats that "the people" have had enough we might actually get something done. It's not voting for a third party that continues the killing and destruction of the planet spawned by our two party system.

The US Army even celebrates the death and destruction by placing campaign ribbons on its official battle flag which still carries the 14 ribbons which stand for the 100 years of war against Native Americans from 1790 to 1890. They celebrate the killing of men, woman, and children of different races who might get in the way of profit for the few and the populace lets them get away with it. How sick is that?

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

Hello All

Thom's blog in this space and moving to a new home.

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

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
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."
Michael Toms, Founding President, New Dimensions World Broadcasting Network and author of A Time For Choices: Deep Dialogues for Deep Democracy
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."
Bill McKibben, author of Eaarth
