No! As we’ve learned from previous experiments in “government by gang” – things never go well.

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.
At Mondragon - both the mountain and the cooperative city - in Spain (written about in "Threshold" book)
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."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
I heard a comment today that is the Supercommittee's plan is approved, he doubted whether it would ever be put in place. I don't know if that's true, if it could be true. I don't know what happens then.
I just emailed my 2 Senators to tell them I will not vote for anyone who agrees to cut Medicare and Medicaid. Amy Klobuchar (MN) is up for re-election and probably will win, but she has cast votes for bad legislation in the past and she needs to be reminded who she serves.
Let's flood our congresspeople with emails vowing not to vote for anyone who tries to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.
OOPS! Doesn't look promising. The Repubs won't budge on tax increases and I doube the Dems will budge on social services cuts. Even if they get a bill to the floor, I doubt it will pass. Grover Norquist is more important than the R's duty to the Constitution.
I voted no, but I like to try and remain optimistic.
It's all talk until someone has them by the nads.
They don't fear us because the vote is impotent.
I think they should go outside and take a look at the world. They seem to have no idea what's going on.
I think if they get these cuts, most of them will be out o office (I'm an optimist).
People power is working bit by bit In Wis Gov Walker - Fla Kasich- Ohio Gov Kasich - OWS OUR Vote is more urgent than ever . now . Must get rid of GOP Bagger Congress who lie, stall block - filibuster 100's s of times on bills they once supported. GOP= more corp cuts- more deregulation - more of same GOP wealth favoring policies as Reagan Bush 1-2 Cheney & Goldman run Fed boys. GOP has a 30 yr love affair with big Corps / Goldman Sachs / Lobbyists / Wall St banks . Obama is only one who tried to reform Wall ST but GOP watered it down - same with Obamacare / Romnneycare GOP vowed to break Obama Make him fail . I refuse to cooperate with these devious corp loving suck ups Former FED Up GOP voter
www.whitehouse.gov www.congress.gov www.senate.gov Speak out right now or stop griping Thanks
Super Committee .is an exercise in futility . A joke GOP has only one purpose # 1 Break Obama 2. More corp cuts 3. More deregulation 4. More deep cuts in education 5. Privatize SS / Medicare so Wall St can gamble it away while making huge fees . GOP fat cat policies ,cuts, loopholes have worked so well for American jobs / wages last 30 years !! NOT
I wrote to Senator Patty Murray and asked her to propose (actually demand) an end to ALL big oil subsidies. We'll see...
