Reading the rants by the loony left in this forum reminds me of Ayn
Rand's
work "Atlas Shrugged". The loonies in that book were anti-capitalism,
pro
confiscatory taxes, anti-intellectual, pro welfare on a massive scale,
and
deniers of the work ethic. The people who built this country finally
went
on strike, refusing to go along with the government "czars" and
ridiculous
edicts.

She was amazingly prophetic. It's time for another shrug.

BTW, before bpuharic ) chimes in with another inane ad
hominem response about right-wingers, I disagreed with them also when
they
started acting like democrats while Bush was in office.




Blech... Ayn Rand was a former screenwriter who convinced a lot of people
who were foolish to take a badly written novels and try and make them into
an economic reality.


Like the Freak would ever tackle a book with the intellectual
complexity of Atlas Shrugged -- and have come away with an analysis.

Cliff Notes would be over his head.


I am confused. The plum states it is badly written, poor economics, and jps
says it is a brilliant novel beyond comprehension by mere mortals. Could
you 2 go off line , maybe include Harry and deside what it is.



Where did I say "brilliant"? And, I hate to break it to you Bill,
but we're all mortals. The Freak is an idiot. I know it's difficult
for you to distinguish between mortals and idiots but there you are.

Any more putting words in my mouth and you'll rival Snotty himself.

I won't lower myself to correct your spelling as other of you ilk are
so fond of doing.

Typical loony left reaction - try to destroy anything that doesn't fit
their world view. Will Rogers never met nom de plump or Harry.


And, your "world view" is limited to Beck's teary face.


OMG, is Bill a Beck follower? I didn't think he was that much of simp
but that does explain a lot.

Actually, she was a terrible writer. Only the drooling righties read her
turgid prose these days.


she was a mindless drone writer for mindless drone right wingers


Typical loony left tactic. Can't rebut points, kill the pointer. You are so
predictable - and pathetic.


what points? she ws a hack.


Think I'll join a forum with intelligent posters. I'm done with this one.


just as long as you never talk to yourself. wouldnt want you to be
disappointed
