Hard truths

Thom Hartman on Olberman with that Schuster guy:

"We've gone from the nation with the most exports of finished goods, the largest number of people owing us money to the nation that imports the most manufactured goods and the deepest in debt. That's the definition of a third world country. This is the end result of Reaganomics."


Ugh.

Wasn't Hartmann awesome?

I swear, that man just exudes health. Everything about him says "centered" and "I have my shit together."

He really is great. Brilliant. Healthy. Emotionally Mature and Balanced.

I really like him.

He tends to not be on the teevees that much. He will do Faux News every so often, because he is so good at telling them - respectfully - just how wrong that they are. But I rarely see him on MSNBC, so I got really excited.

You were damned quick getting that transcript up. Did you transcribe it yourself?

Thom Hartmann is the best show on radio.
I wish he would move to TV, he knows his shit and is always respectful, even when he dissects the opponent.
He had Lou Dobbs on once and he had him eating out of his hand by the end of the segment.

Here's the You-Tube of Hartmann.

Anjha, the tv was on, I heard the name, and started watching. He was awesome. I did forget the part about raw materials, though. Exporters of raw materials, that's what makes a third world country...Damn fine quote, I thought.

Can someone explain what the fuck paradox is talking about in his Afghanistan post? Seems a bit incoherent to me.

I haven't tried to read it yet. Too many words.
