Paul Ryan loves Ayn Rand

[bripat9643]

When a person states he is going to reduce the debt by raising military spending and tax cuts to the wealthy and slashing medical care for the elderly, and quotes a materialistic brown nosing ex-Russian sycophant like Ayn Rand as his heroine, he is hardly someone I would vote for or support. He needs to have his little pin head examined.

Yes, we understand that someone who worships at the feet of Karl Marx is never going to like anyone who approves of Ayn Rand.

Tell us something we don't know.

Ryan has all the compassion of someone who has never dealt with illness and disability, cared for an elderly parent or grandparent, or watched an older person struggle to make ends meet. He's smug in his little Washington bubble, knowing he has healthcare and won't ever have to worry about choosing between buying groceries or taking a child to the doctor.

Good luck winning over the middle class and older Americans!

One could say the same thing of Obama. Hence his callousness about imposing his healthcare monstrosity on the entire nation.

But the thread isn’t about Obama, it’s about Ryan.

Do you have the courage to address the thread topic as to what a major political blunder this VP pick is, or continue to engage in pointless deflection.

In other words, "pay no attention to that man standing behind the curtain!"

Since when is pointing out hypocrisy "not relevant" to any discussion?

No matter who Romney picked, all the Obamarhoids were certain to claim it was a blunder. That's standard operating procedure for them.

Surely you Mensa members do not need reminding but I will anyway.

Ryan stabbed your granny. Obama said so.

Ryan is Ready... ready to dismantle Medicare and THEN do the same to Social Security.

This has been the Republican wet dream since the LAST republican caused Great Depression.

Ironically Paul Ryan lived off of and went to school on his deceased dad's social security survivor benefits.

Everyone "ends up" on Social Security and Medicare, numbnuts. That's the law.

The left-wing theory seems to be that only those who support liberal boondoggle programs are entitled to collect the benefits. That's the ultimate conception of political patronage.

You seem to know a lot about him. Shame that most of it is fiction.

The level of 'political debate' on this board is fucking laughable. Seriously.

IDIOT

Thanks for showing the 'depth' on the left. No surprise here, but the 'independents' see you for what you are.

There's not much depth to Ryan. In terms of his appearance you'd think he'd be getting out of a stutz-bearcat..while sipping a martini in a full length fur coat at the country club.

But policy wise..he's basically the social darwinist that the Republican party has come to love lately. Kill grandma and the poor..while enriching defense contractors.

We've heard that tune before.

You're making me cry...I think of all the families Obama/Democrats have thrown out on the streets, not personally but by their failed policies.

Rand was very popular in my high school.

Interesting for providing points of departure, not very useful for living with real human beings. Sort of like Nietzsche without the heavy thinking.

Who's Ayn Rand?
