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.
Took me time to read all the comments, but I really enjoyed the article. It proved to be Very helpful to me and I am sure to all the commenters here! It’s always nice when you can not only be informed, but also entertained! http://www.rebelmouse.com
Good Post, I am a big believer in posting comments on sites to let the blog writers know that they’ve added something advantageous to the world wide web! cellulite factor
KW -- I would like to add that the education is best accomplished, IMO, by public protest.
Listening to Mr. Korwin, I find myself leaning towards the jobs problem being greatly impacted be a shallow gene pool.
The only way to change the present condition the American people are now in, is through educating those who do not bother to vote or get involved in our political system. The politicians in Washington that represent the Wealthy and the Corporations that fund them only fear one thing, an American public that votes and can read through the lies that are being fed to us via our right wing Republican and left wing (progressive) Democrat info/entertainment programs and commercials that are paid to say what they are told too. Otherwise, things will never change. And, yes I am delusional enough to believe the American voters can make a change, otherwise it is time to just sit down and quit hoping. Violence will only destroy those who employ it against the Government. K.W.
ckrob -- Based on one of my previous comments above, it 90% of the people want a particular law what does the constitution have to do with it? The constitution says whatever the super-majority wants, I, the constitution cannot stand in their way (also called the amendent process).
KW -- That water is too damn cold. Besides that it is raining.

DAM - The Government staging the mass murder of Children! Paranoia must run rampant in your mind to think the Government killed children as a prelude to some type of martial law in order to take away our guns. I am not stating that as a put down on your state of mind, but you really need to think before you make comments of this nature. I know, I am one of those fools that have been duped by our Government because I do not think they killed innocent children to impose their agenda on the American people, nor do I believe they flew remote controlled aircraft into the Towers and used Terrorists as fall guys! What type of medicine was or is mother or father presently on? They have shown clinically that paranoia may be passed on from one generation to the next. It is not your fault; it is in your genes. Get help before you see them coming after you and act out because of your delusions and hurt yourself or a child. This is what happened in Conn. to those innocent children and adults. K.W.
I feel a lot more people need to read this, very good info! . . . . . . dr charles cellulite factor

You are allowed to post names, but not links, unless they are approved and on topic. belly dancing course
Actually I read it yesterday but I had some thoughts about it and today I wanted to read it again because it is very well written. http://www.rebelmouse.com
I figured that would be your reply....I will go down to Manhattan Beach and have a swim and then lunch and a beer, it is closer.
Mmm.. good to be here in your article or post, whatever, I think I should also work hard for my own website like I see some good and updated working in your site. belly dancing course
Hi there, I found your blog via Google while searching for such kinda informative post and your post looks very interesting for me. belly dancing course mariella monroe
DAnneMarc -- I assume you realize the gun manufacturers are using your paranoia to sell more guns. I believe currently the thing we should be the most paranoid about is the 1%, not the emotions of the 90%. Your statements seem to stand behind a ruling elite that says we know what is best for you emotional people.
I assume the defense department has so many contingency plans like Operation Northwood that your hair would stand on end. I remember back in the 60s reading one of the contingency plans for race wars.
Hey Thom .. is that short for Thomas or did your parents have a speech impediment? So try this little experiment and put some action behind your words. Hand draw a disgusting vile picture of Jesus Christ. Then hand draw the most loving and caring picture of Mohammed (did I spell the correct?), the Allah guy. If you truly believe that "Radical Islam" is not a big a threat as fast food or being able to drive to work, which one will you publish on your blog?
One can read the 2nd Amendment has requiring militia membership has a condition for gun ownership. How many U.S. gun owners are members in good standing of a state militia, subject to the rules and regulations thereof? What part of "A well regulated Militia" is difficult to understand?
chuckle8 ~ I see and agree with your point. I also am in favor of background checks. I'd love to see assault weapons banned as well. But this is my problem. These are the Government's solution for widespread violent mass murders that involve not only guns; but, the mentally ill. Have you ever heard of "Operation Northwood." If not, please google it. Before you finish typing "Operation" in your search engine "Northwood" will appear at the top of the search list. It was a clandestine black op proposed by the US Joint Chiefs of Staff and rejected by the Kennedy administration. It called for such acts to be committed on American streets, killing innocent American civilians in order to justify pursuing an illegal invasion of Cuba.
When I see my Government responding to the acts of these extremely mentally ill people by trying to ban guns I become very suspicious of ulterior motives. In this case the ends do not justify the means. Why are we not reinstating publicly funded mental hospitals? That is exactly what this situation demands? Gun control? Did prohibition stop drinking? Did the war on drugs stop drug abuse? No, they didn't. They simply made the problem worse. Ever since prohibition there have been machine guns available on the black market. No arbitrary mass murders have occurred in history until Reagan defunded mental hospitals. The argument for gun control as a solution to this problem holds no water.
On the other hand, the argument that the Government is behind these acts, or at least using these acts to pursue a hidden agenda of disarming the American People is blatantly sound. The 1%, or 0.01% if you will, are behind this hidden agenda. Of course they can arouse the emotions of 90% of the population by staging the mass murder of children. When our children are threatened we don't think clearly--we react--often times irrationally. I tell you I see the writing on the wall from a mile away; and, this is coming from an anti-gun pacifist. I have no love for the NRA, guns, or any of the red states. But I feel we are all being played like a violin. Don't think with you heart, think with your brain on this one.
Tara T -- Thom says the 1% influence on the Republican party started immediately after Lincoln's death with Andrew Johnson becoming president. The major shift was after LBJ pushed through the civil rights act.

"You need to see the movie "Lincoln" those functional idiots out voted and bought off the Democrats in order to free the slaves. And I bet that is a fact that PhilpHenderson does not like."
You do realize that's because the parties were flipped then yes? Those republicans are the democrats of today and vice versa. For all intensive purposes republicans used to be the progressives and Dems used to be the conservatives. Personally, i'm still trying to figure out exactly when the change took place -- how and why.
DAnneMarc -- 90% of the people want background checks. I do not see where any of the 1% are influencing this decision; especially, for any profit. Meanwhile the NRA (actually the gun manufacturers) through ALEC are telling the Red States to defy these laws. By supporting the red states you are helping the 1% fight back against the 90%. to help the profits of the gun manufacturers.
Yes, great US Military force. Also, in his post you have given a chance to listen about US Military. I really appreciate your work. Thanks for sharing it. michael fiore text your ex back
Great post full of useful tips! My site is fairly new and I am also having a hard time getting my readers to leave comments. Analytics shows they are coming to the site but I have a feeling “nobody wants to be first”. text your ex back review
