For military action more than once, he only can brag on the IWR but he had already voted on AUMF which was still in force at the time IWR came up.

Being involved in the Punk Rock scene a lot of my friends and acquaintances are anti-establishment types who don't vote but spout out about politics on social media. I always just hide those kind of threads. I have no desire to get into more dead-end online arguments.

That official Soviet Union newspaper that spouted constant propaganda to the masses; only I think Hartmann's circulation falls way short of "the masses".

All you need to know about him is that he wrote a book theorizing that JFK was killed by the mob.

Idiot.

For years, I enjoyed listening to Hartmann and Mike Malloy. I contributed to Mike's fundraisers and was a podcast subscriber. I never really liked the weird anger he had toward the Clintons after the midpoint of the 2008 campaign - he was fine enough with Hillary getting the nomination up until then-Sen. Obama started closing the gap. Now I can't listen to him at all, though I hope he, Kathy (and Molly) are able to continue their show in this climate, and I hope they, too, rally around Hillary soon. I always thought Hartmann was a little less radical than Malloy. It's surprising and not cool that he's allowing a platform for this sort of divisiveness.

I used to have a 45 minute drive each way to go to work; I used to listen to his podcasts going to work and back. One day on the way home he screamed and yelled the whole way. He sounded like he was off his meds or something. I stopped listening after that. I get passionate about issues, but passion and rage are two different things. I think he has problems.

I never listened to Mike Mallory, but Tom our family did he is from our home town we think Tom will come down after Hillary is the Nominee,I think he is caught in the middle because of Bernie being on his show and they are friends he will not take bad calls on the phone about Hillary he will support her if she is the nominee he said but you are right allowing this on his site is sad..guess time will tell ........

I probably should go outside and argue with a stump, because I think I'd get farther. And the stump wouldn't call me a sHill, so I'd actually be a little bit ahead.

The author says "I've been arguing and debating politics for a dozen years on the internet." Obviously they were able to enact the change they wanted to see in the world.
