Thom Hartmann debates Gretchen Hamel, Executive Director of Public Notice. They examine taxing imports and how it could improve U.S. goods.

You might be familiar with the advocacy TV commercials by Public Notice that discuss the national debt, such as "Stop Digging". (Here's a FactCheck.org criticism of the ad and .)

2. This woman is a joke, as Thom Hartmann accurately told her "Gretchen do your (fucking) homework"!

Man, this Gretchen Hamel is just another right-wing misinformed slimy corporate profits above people republican clown?

Just watched Hamel's incredible ignorance and stupidity on the Thom Hartmann Show - Wow....This is one promoting woman for even more greed for the rich and their corporations shill, whoring for the wealthy and republicans.

This woman is a complete joke, as Thom Hartmann accurately told her.... "Gretchen do your (fucking) homework"!!

What a gullible disgusting liar this woman is!

3. THAT'S how you talk to corporate whores!
I enjoyed that. Thom knows his shit and any corporate spokesperson/whore that goes up against him is going to come across as an ill-informed, bought-off dimwit, ala Ms. Hamel. I sometimes wonder why righties allow themselves to be humiliated like that on the airwaves, though I'm glad they do since it's so much fun to watch. Well done, Thom!
