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:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
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."
once again, the simplistic choices are frustrating. yes, he's lame duck, but so what?; the point is to get his proposals out to the public, then profit from gop opposition. it's politics, not idealistic posturing.
The progressive community knows whats RIGHT, so OBAMA should simply say what NEEDS TO BE SAID. Sooner or later the public will ultimately realize and cave to the True Progressive Agenda geared around the middleclass, seniors and lastly all the unequality which the 99% are faced with.
As long as we have politicians who support corporate America over We the People not much will get done just look at the last few years, we have been held hostage for too long. It won't matter who becomes POTUS in the next election if we still have businessman disguised as politicians making decsions for us and our planet.
Obama's SOTU speech was pointless, but because of Republicans; he'd run into just as much opposition if the Democrats were in control. America is an oligrarcy. We lost our democratic republic while we were busy watching so-called "reality" TV or playing video games while the corporate powers-that-be sought to divide us into a many opposing camps as possible.
