We were skimming the FoxNews.com website looking for some of those "free Medicare scooter" ads, but got distracted by the important news of terrible writer/awful person Ayn Rand's 107th birthday. She doesn't look a day over 106 ... objectively. Objectively-ist. Anyway, we hope she's enjoying being tortured for Eternity in Hell, for not believing in Jesus and denying His one command for all humanity: "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must Love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." Anyway, how are Ayn Rand's terrible followers celebrating the day a kind woman selflessly gave birth to a child and then cared for it, instead of feeding Baby Ayn to the cat?
Some proud-to-be-a-jerk guy on the FoxNews.com website writes this birthday card to amorality:
Rand is usually thought of as a political philosopher, but that is not how she viewed herself. “I am primarily the creator of a new code of morality,” she once said .... This is the philosophy embodied by fictional characters such as Hank Rearden, the industrialist in "Atlas Shrugged."
“I work for nothing but my own profit,” he says .... It is this moral outlook that underlies Rand’s advocacy of free markets, and it suggests where those looking for Rand’s influence on today’s politics can see it. Above all, you can see it in the moral outrage of the Tea Party activists, many of whom carry signs championing Rand’s works and ideas.
Recall the Rick Santelli rant that started it all: “This is America. How many of you people want to pay for your neighbor’s mortgage that has an extra bathroom and can’t pay their bills, raise their hand? . . . . I’m an Ayn Rander.”
Happy birthday, you evil worm! And happy birthday to you, too, Ayn Rand! [ Fox News ]
I stopped giving hugs to pastors after I found out that mine had slept with about 10 women in our church. That's also about the same time I stopped going to church altogether.
I know, right...plus the fucker kept them all to himself.
