From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
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 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."
Factory Farming Must End.
"Factory Farming" is a key element to the dismantling of the old world colonial system of rob, rape, and pillage.
We are FINALLY Waking up to the Fact that colonialism and slavery still continue. The old model: that is OK to make a profit off the suffering and exploitation of others and the Earth -- is coming to and End. Thank Heaven.
Rather than issue-by-issue thinking, the entire "debate" must be seen thru a united lens, and seen clearly for WHAT IT IS: WRONG. It doesn't matter how much you spin, PR it, Lie about it, Hide it, Deny it, Dress it up in expensive suits and corner offices.
To profit thru theft, deceit, cruelty, and bullying is just flat out wrong and is no way to run a civilization.
It is immature.
We are growing up and seeing the connections between the suffering we endure thru food and toxin induced illness.
We see the advertizing lies, and the devastation done to our land, our water, our communities, our kids, and our grandparents
-- we are done. AS Randi says: We are done with it.
Out with Cruelty -- in with sanity, health, mercy, and fairness.
