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 The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
It's sad that the Republican Congress have their hearts set on killing the jobs of tens of thousands of Americans, playing politics with the lives of men women and children. On the other hand Sen. Inhof Applauds the Congress they have cleared the runways of work crews.
Another choice - I believe the current Continuing Resolution that the government is operating under instead of a budget expires in September. So we look forward to another government shut down.
We can all Thank Fox Rush Beck Palen Bachman loyal followers / ditto heads for giving Congress to Tea Baggers. Cons Worried about your jobs, SS or medicare yet ? .No one is immune to Tea Baggers massive greed , bullying and blackmailing. Th is is a whole different breed of animal and they run Congress & Speaker Boehner Baggers and Cantor have the Speaker by the cajones and will not let go
How can Congress be on vacation and still be ion session? Why are we as Americans putting up with all the tricks and cons from the Republicans and Teabaggers? They hold up appointments and do everything in their power to make President Obama look bad so he will lose the next election. Will Amerians get wise to this and say Enough is enough. Can't poeple see that Rich money and wealth will be controlling the US openly instead of behind the scenes. When are we going to starting putting a stop to this?
This is all so sad. Obama is not the man I thought he was , "Man" being the operative word.
We should take a page from the Tea Party's book. Thom spoke if this today. Let's all work to become district captains for the progressive movement. We can do just as the TPers have done!
Yes, I bet Inhof had a lot to do with the FAA, getting revenge for his landing problem.
ALSO ---Don't forget about ALEC
It's painfully obvious that all the phonecalls, emails, and internet clicks won't get anything done.
I strongly agree with Thom that we need to follow the example of the Tebaggers and either form or join local commitees
to get more liberal Democrats in office. It won't be as easy as the Tea Party had it though. They've had the backing of corporate sponsored entities like "FreedomWorks" and other types of media outlets such as FOX, but somehow it must get done!
