    Default If You Ever Listened To Rush Limbaugh; You Should Listen To Thom Hartmann

    The difference could hardly be more stark.

    Here we have the popular conservative pundit, who constantly talks about liberals and leftists, obsessed with disparaging THE PEOPLE on the other side, distorting the issues with shaky or nonexistent sources.

    And then you look at the popular progressive pundit, and he is constantly talking about THE ISSUES, and IDEAS for how things could be better, and his sources are rock solid.

    Ever heard this wisdom? "Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people."

    Limbaugh's programming is geared toward an audience of small minds discussing people.

    Hartmann's programming is geared toward an audience of average minds and great minds discussing events and ideas.

    Standard anti-troll thread thief disclaimer:
    If this thread is stolen, plagiarized, will the thief have the nerve to use the entire OP, word for word? Including this disclaimer?

    If you want my take on it, you'll have to post to this original thread. I refuse to be an enabler for online bullies, so I won't post to a stolen thread. I won't even read it.

    Thread thievery is the tool of trolls. You know, people talk about one another. You might as well admit it is true, and realize the people who know you, talk about you when you are not present. I can accept that. Many can't. Trolls can't. They have to try to conTROLL what people say about them. (Like Trump!) They can't stand the thought of people talking about them without trying to conTROLL the conversation. That's the insecurity talking......

    The people banned from this thread were banned because they refused to be polite, so I refuse to talk to them. I came to talk about Just Plain Politics.

    Thom Hartmann said today that there is something wrong with a society where the exit strategy for a small tech business is to get bought out by Amazon.

    A very astute point!

    Rush ranted about leftists and communists.

    Hartmann may not be your cup of tea, evince.

    He's critical of both parties, where appropriate.

    He contends that the 2000 American election and 2004 American election were stolen through electronic tampering, denial of the voting franchise by rigged voting lists, and limiting availability of voting machines in selected precincts. He also accuses the Bush administration of eroding democracy and individual freedoms.


    he in fact has been trying to protect the American voters for decades just like me

    Hartmann lost all credibility with me with all his Hillary-Hate speech in the last presidential election!

    Fuck him- and all you other Hillary Haters too!

    Yep! One of Bernie's most recognizable pundits with one of the loudest voices.

    He was encouraging other Bernie supporters to place protest votes instead of Hillary votes in the last election after Bernie didn't win the nomination.

    That went way beyond the pale!

    He should be shot! And he has no room to talk about Trump now!
