Paul Ryan, Ayn Rand and the Hypocrisy of the Media .....

Ayn Rand and Atlas Shrugged - should be required reading for every citizen in AMERICA! It's happening already.....

You can learn a lot about people from the company they keep, even if that company is in the form of ghosts on a bookshelf. And yes, when it comes to fiscal policy, Paul Ryan loves Ayn Rand.

The Washington Post published a long, belabored essay last week on what Rand‘s philosophies say about Mitt Ryan’s new running mate (funny, no one seemed quite this curious about Joe Biden’s library). And Dave Weigel at Slate published another, in which he admits that Ryan’s quoted Thomas Aquinas as a much bigger influence on his politics. But who wants to talk about some 13th century theologian — only known as the Church’s greatest philosopher — when Rand is so controversial?
