The World According to Twitter: Crowd-Sourced Wit and Wisdom from David Pogue and His 500,000 Followers
1 recommendation
"If you haven't yet joined the tweeting community, this book will make you want to reconsider . . . and perhaps even pen a 140-word work of your very own genius. It is the new and improved town hall, inspiring, informing and made more interesting with an ever-widening array of opinions."
Hunger
1 recommendation
"Hands down the best film I've seen this year. A brilliant first feature film by video artist Steve McQueen about the story of IRA member Bobby Sands and the hunger strike he undertook while imprisoned in the early 1980s. Without posing moral judgement, the film highlights the subjectivity and power of conviction as well as its possible profundity and futility. This movie is scarce on dialogue but ..."

"It's a fairly common theme with awesome Americans, they carry a pocket constitution with them, and here I am, I don't even own a copy."
District 9

Food, Inc.
3 recommendations
""Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment. Food, Inc. reveals surprising — and often shocking truths — about what we eat, how it’s produced, who we have become as a nation and where we are going from here." I can't wait to see this doc..."
Soldier : Movie
1 recommendation
"This is an enjoyable sci fi romp starring Kurt Russell as a born and bred soldier out of touch with his humanity. He's thrown out as obsolete trash (on a desolate garbage planet) when a newer breed of soldier is introduced. TODD (Russell) is not alone on the planet. He encounters a pacifist community under the threat of invasion."
Jacob's Ladder
1 recommendation
"A frightening film about a Vietnam vet who starts to question his insanity as his horrific nightmares bleed into reality. It turns out that these visions aren't just post traumatic stress, but the side effects of a sinister agenda."
Steal This Movie
1 recommendation
"Oh Abbie Hoffman, radical 60's dissident. D'Onofrio (Law & Order: Criminal Intent) does an outstanding job in the lead role of this film. Although one may be sympatheitc to Hoffman's cause you can't help but cringe at how his personnal struggles (including drug addiction) at times overshadowed and diminished his activism. But hey, nobodys perfect. Abbie Hoffamn is definately a figure in Ameri..."

The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot
1 recommendation
"I really want to read this book by activist and social critic Naomi Wolf who explains in very simple language how are democracy is in jeopardy at this very moment. And not from an external threat, but from what the "forefathers" of the U.S. talked about in the Declaration of Independence. A truly patriotic book for those who want to make sure life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are not comp..."
Declaration of Independence Replica on Parchment
1 recommendation
"Do yourself a favor and read the declaration of independence. Its a short read. Know your rights as an individual and a nation. This historical declaration informs the people of how to keep your government in check and what the gov't should and SHOULD NOT do. Pay close attention to how many violations of the people's rights (as indicated in the declaration) have been in practice under the current ..."
Where Have All the Leaders Gone? by Lee Iacocca
1 recommendation
"More than a call to arms, this is a no-holds-barred condemnation of the state of the nation by one of the world's foremost turnaround artists. We may not like how he says what he says, but Iacocca makes some salient points and, in so doing, gives us a beacon at the end of this recessionary tunnel."

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
2 recommendations
"I distinctly remember watching this in junior high. It was without a doubt the very moment that i became interested in politics. For those of you that don't know, it's a about a bright eyed politician who make his way to Washington, only to realize what it's really all about. This is his story and I won't give too much away, except by saying that I became fascinated with filibusters after it wa..."

"Who isn't in this movie?! Lets see, off the top of my head there's Will Smith, Gene Hackman, Jon Voight, Jack Black, Lisa Bonet, Jason Lee Jamie Kennedy, Jake Busey, Scott Caan, Regina King and I'm sure your mom is in it too. This is as action as action gets! Chases! Explosions! Some government computer room with some guy yelling orders that he wants to know where somebody is at all times and to ..."

Death and Taxes Poster

"Do you wanna know where your tax dollars go? I think the guys who made this need a life, or a girl friend or... is this what art is? Maybe that's why the Endowment for the Arts is so small... Dear IRS, Please note I have not included that extra 17 cents that would go to the Endowment of the Arts. I do not wish for my hard earned dollars going to guys that bury themselves in their basem..."

Bas Bleu: The Intellectual Devotional: American History
1 recommendation
"It seems a simple matter to have a grasp of American history, when it is so short in comparison to that of the rest of the world. Yet, if you weren't a political science or history major, some of the major elements of our society and its place in the wider world may remain a mystery to you. Remedy that ignorance with small, juicy doses of information provided by this devotional. Or simply refer..."

"Loved this movie. So dark and compelling. Plus it has that yummy Clive Owen."
Equilibrium
4 recommendations
"I used to ask candidates what their favorite movie was and if they'd ever heard of Equilibrium. An answer in the positive gave them a slight favor in my book. An incredible movie that is like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and the Hong Kong martial arts all rolled into one. The fighting style, Gun Kata, stands apart from all the other movies of the time which were all obsessed with modeling themselves ..."
