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."
From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
Unfortunately for us, the rapidly progressing corporate (e.g., ALEC) takeover of state governments as a path to controlling the U.S. government is not a conspiracy theory. That's probably why all the people who believe Bush bombed the Twin Towers and Obama was born in Kenya don't believe it, and have labeled it a "conspiracy theory." Unless they wake up, this will not end well.
