From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
GOP will take money from anyone - anywhere. Breaking Obama / keeping economy weak is their ONLY goal
This can't be a serious question Would Bonnie and Clyde take money from Al Capone?
This is a "joke" poll question, right?
The Republicans have been increasingly =blatant= about their scorn for this country and its people. They have made no bones whatsoever about not giving so much as a tinker's damn for this country or anything it stands (stood??) for. They want what they want and to hell with anyone or anything that stands in the way of their getting it. And what they want, of course, is every single bit of money available =and= total subjugation of everyone to their 'superiority' and 'Power'. Bribing =anyone=, foreign or domestic, doesn't mean squat, or the 'product' of squat, to these people. Will it help them get what they want, no matter how illegal or even heinous it is? Go for it -- no one else matters, anyway.
The corporate party installed Democrat Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, happily accepted $102,000 in Koch family bribes.
"Contributions" to the Andrew Cuomo (D) 2010 Gubernatorial Campaign:
$25,000 + $18,100 + $6,900 = $50,000 from David Koch, of Wichita, KS
$15,000 + $12,000 + $10,000 = $37,000 from David Koch's wife, Julia
$5,000 from David Koch's brother, William I, of Palm Beach, FL
$5,000 + $5,000 = $10,000 from a Koch Group & Company, LLC
However, that was small change compared to the lifetime payoff we can expect the Democrat, Cuomo, to be receiving from the extraction industry.
In New York's 2010 gubernatorial election, the biggest issue was whether or not New York voters should allow Halliburton's fracking technology to invade and occupy New York — to Iraqify it. The Green Party's candidate, Howie Hawkins, firmly advocated for a statewide ban on fracking, which, if accomplished, would have empowered other states and other nations to also act to protect themselves and all the world's people from the bringing on the end of times insanity of fracking. Both of the corporate party's candidates, Paladino (R) and Cuomo (D), supported fracking. Democrat Cuomo's campaign released "energy plan" was/is near wholly dependent upon "efficiencies" sacrificing water to rip the last remnants of fossil-fuel from stone (shale gas). All the corporate party needed to do was have Paladino drag his hairy knuckles upon the ground and the "progressive" sheeple feverishly flocked together with actually conservative Republicans to provide Cuomo a massive 63% popular vote mandate to frack New York.
Promptly after being installed, Cuomo used a separate and unequal protection unconstitutional measure to provide special protection for the water that the City of Thieves takes from the Catskill Mountains, while opening the door wide for the extraction industry to Iraqify New York's vast farmland, from the western edges of the Catskills westerly across the state to Lake Erie.
Nothing does depravity like the "progressive's" Democrats do.

These treacherous old farts will do anything for a buck. Can we just send them to the moon?
If we follow the Citizens United decision and conclude that corporations are people and money is speech, can we then consider the Kochs or their corporations to be "domestic terrorists" for doing business or having contact with countries that the U.S. considers as "enemies"?
