Thom Hartmann takes a call from some one with conservative views. They debate what would happen if taxes on business were different.

1. I can't stand these right wing liars.
Yeah, sure he's always listened to Thom Hartmann and agrees with what he says; then he turns around and argues against what Thom Hartmann says and supports an extremist like Paul?

Either he's a typical right-wing liar pretending to be on Hartmann's side just so he can get his bullshit on the air, or he is as deluded as the typical voter is, and it's pointless to try and reach him.

2. Yea, He Had Several
Callers today that tried to cozy up to him, then set about making conservative talking points. I like Paul's positions on a few issues, but like close to 100 percent of the liberals who complained about him being ignored, and how it's just another example of the media filtering out anything negative about the MIC, I'd never vote for him.

3. I disagree with both of em
I like Ron Paul's foreign policy

With that said I didn't like what Tom said about government between a doctor and a patient
Not because I don't govt. in between but because of why he wants it in between

He said it's a person you elect and that represents you
Someone call Tom and let him know that ae are at war, wars that the majority of americans want out of
Not only are we maitaining these endless wars they are being expanded into the entire middle east

How many people protested against the bailouts?

We the people is a joke, the sooner people realize that the better and the sooner we'll adapt, if we will at all

That argument is a bunch of amateur BS

4. touche
he makes the assumption that this monsanto supporting, big pharma cuddling, MIC worshiping government of our would take care of "we the people". But if the caller is really in a union then am not sure he wants a Ron Paul in the white house, not even private unions would be spared under his rule.

Talk out Scott Walker on steroids :)

5. Like the caller you hear but you don't listen.
Elected officials can be voted out no matter how corrupt they are. If you would only vote a straight Democratic ticket all the time you would see quite a large improvement in all government. Stop being wooed by independents (tea party et. al.), it only gives more votes to the radical right Republicons. Give Obama a second term and a Democratic majority and we can fix this country.
