Ayn Rand Republican for California Assembly - When it comes to Tax increases doesn't "possess that degree of flexibility"

By Eric Dondero on  From libertarianrepublican.net
QUOTE OF THE DAY!! From the Bellingham Herald, "Centrist Republicans may offer flexibility": In a heavily Republican district just to the east, stretching from the Sierra foothills to the shores of Lake Tahoe, the six-candidate field is dominated by a battle between former GOP Assemblyman Rico Oller and Republican Madera County Supervisor Frank Bigelow, who has also refused to sign the [no tax increase] pledge. Oller is a conservative firebrand who quotes Ayn Rand, spits out the word...Read Full Story

DISSECTING RAND: PART II: William Edward Hickman & Ayn Rand

By SJ Reidhead on  From thepinkflamingoblog.com
Why on earth would anyone give credence to anything written by a woman like Ayn Rand? “...Her view of economics starkly divided the world into a contest between “moochers” and “producers,” with the small group making up the latter generally composed of the spectacularly wealthy, the successful, and the titans of industry. The “moochers” were more or less everyone else, leading TNR’s Jonathan Chait to describe Rand’s thinking as a kind of inverted Marxism. Marx considered wealth creation to...Read Full Story

DISSECTING RAND: PART III:The Cult of Rand Still Exists (Unfortunately)

By SJ Reidhead on  From thepinkflamingoblog.com
Ayn Rand created a cult around her very strange personality.  Like L. Ron Hubbard, she manipulated the use of her novels into a way of controlling the lives of those around her.  From the grave, like some demonic harpy out to destroy the United States, she still does.  If you were to ask The Pink Flamingo to name one author whose books should be given a Triple-X rating and hidden with the worst degrading pornography (of the intellect) it would be Ayn Rand. No one under the age of twenty- one...Read Full Story
