The way I see it, the GOP is currently in a suicide pact with the Tea Party.

IMHO, there's little (if any) difference between the Republicans and Democrats...they're BOTH wholly owned subsidaries of Corporate America, they'll BOTH do the bidding of the 1%, and they'll BOTH go down within 10 years....THAT'S why I'm voting straight Socialist in 2012!!

I'm afraid there's too much money in politics ... and it d o e s corrupt (on both sides, though I'll still take the Dems any day). Eventually, things will moderate .. I just wonder if I will live to see it.

Occupy Wall Street gives me some hope!!!

If Grover Norquist succeeds in having Obama impeached for a tiny 2% tax for the uber rich, then I would like to see him drowned in a bathtub.

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

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.

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 Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."

From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
