1. OW OW OW OW This is big. Now if we can jsut get Ayn Rand to recant...

Yes I know she is dead :p


About time Greenspan owned up but still big!

[Confusious]

2. She's not dead! Get a Randroid! Greenspan not included

Need advice about your latest megalomaniacal scheme? If only you could ask history's greatest megalomaniac, "novelist" and "philosopher" Ayn Rand. Too bad she's dead. But wait! In 1963, a secret cabal of Objectivists intent on taking over the Student Union at MIT built the first robotic Ayn Rand, and now you can own a Randroid® based on their original design. Comes with stock phrases such as "Morality ends where the gun begins," "Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent," and "Nathaniel! Bring me another gin and tonic!"
Price: US$50,000 includes software*
*software tends to be rather buggy. For instance, your Randroid may oppose immigration, yet be an immigrant herself. She may oppose infidelity, yet cheat on her husband. She may espouse individuality, yet believe that only those who follow her are individuals. She may oppose the control of individuals by organizations, yet laud corporate power. These bugs can not be repaired.

Gold or Silver only please! ( these days, you know )

P.S. I have been saving this FOR SOOOOOOO LONG

3. I love Henry Waxman

He is eternally vigilant and just a good egg.

As for Greenspan, gosh, you mean that an emotion-driven thing of logical mutation called ideology that one merely wants to believe in and that has no real, long-standing external validation that it will work, doesn't work? Whoa, now there is a surprise. God forbid we would just do what is proven to work.

6. MIca is a tool

His congressional district is in Central Florida and hopefully, his smack ass will be looking for other work after Nov 4.

8. Hehe Bill Moyers Friday Show talked Ayn Rand too. With some less than

With some less thankind words for here and Atlas Shrugs. I still kind of like the Movie the Fountain Head. Maybe it doesn't follow the book to closely.
