Yeah, parts of this are very hard to corroborate. The Ryan stuff seems true and Trump does credit the "Fountainhead" as inspiration. But I am starting to doubt the quote, it would have to have been made in July when she was there. Probably hearsay...

maybe her comment will work against her and inspire many more people to read it!

You all realize, of course, that this is a fake "news" article. Not a single one of the quotations is accurate.

"Boyish fantasy" sounds like a catchphrase given to her by one of her acolytes. It is generic enough to be used for a variety of reasons and I'll bet she has memorized pages full for every situation. One thing for sure, she never read the book.

Except he is no such hero. He is far from a Capitalist. He doesn't even know what he is.

Exactly; and exactly why she is absolutely the wrong woman to be the first for Pres.
She also has to take that stand because of what Rand says about the moochers.
Ironic is Trump's response: he is certainly not an AS hero!

While I put the article as just another political hack piece, I still like the comment about "tripping on her dick". Very apropos...

Hilldarmort (AKA "she who dare not be named") has the people she cheated out of their candidate so thoroughly bamboozled I wonder if some kind of satanic deal was reached. We KNOW that she cheated her way to the nomination...

You forget WHO she is? What she did when her hubby was CiC? I guess people prefer syrupy sweet pabulum covered "BS" to truth and honesty.

I just wonder... how many of her loyal minions, after they wake up from their orgasmatronic hypnosis, will realize that they are as much un-citizens with her at the controls as those unwashed scum who don't fall in line with der fuehrerina...

"Boyish," did she say? She could never have read it. If she had, she would have realized the "hero" was a "heroine."

A book with a strong female character that advocates personal responsibility. I can see why Hillary doesn't like it.

That's why I threw in the "perhaps," but you are correct, you stickler you. .
+1 for keeping lackadaisical old dinos on their toes.

If HRC has ever read AS or seen the movies she probably sees her self as one of the villains.

I've always thought of him as being like Henry Rearden. Messy life, but solid producer.

Rand stated that she created heroes that she would like to know, rather than trying to make 'real' people of today's world.

I take Hillary's comment about AS as her unwitting but solid endorsement of Trump.

"they “wish Hillary would just stop tripping on her own dick,” "
Yeah, not a real article.

Just finished watching the AS trilogy for the fourth time. Hillary is disturbingly similar to the collectivist villains portrayed in the movies. I can see her sitting with her fellow travelers sipping brandy and deciding to "sacrifice the sickly parts" of the nation for the greater good. HRC is a caricature of herself a roll for which she is well suited.

She never read it; probably didn't even watch the movies. Can anyone actually imagine her reading it? LOL

The interesting thing about this news item was that Trump declared himself an Ayn Rand comic book hero. Maybe there is hope for him?

That is not why she said there ordinarily should not be woman president. She explained that she didn't think a woman would want to be president because of feminine psychology, not that none would be capable. But none of that applies to Hillary.

Hildacon isn't worthy of speaking about Atlas Shrugged she is the poster child of a slimey Kakistocrat.
I will consider Ryan an objectivist when he sounds the alarm loud and clear. Warning the people of the attack and destructive actions weakening the constitution and the inner city. Show the negative effect of the collectivism and victimization. Work on eliminating the viscous regulations that put a stranglehold on small to midsize businesses. Prove that the republicans are interested in clean air and water.
Get a message , clean up the corruption and cronyism. Give the hard working Americans a chance to improve their lives. END OBAMACARE.

Once again shrilly Shillary makes old dino want to raise my tail over her head.
Perhaps Ayn Rand imagined such a power-hungry evil hag when saying she would not vote for a female president.
No, me dino did not say that.
She did. See?

Sure doesn't seem that Paul Ryan pays any attention to what he reads to his kids. At least we know Hillary doesn't believe a word of it. But I think it is disgusting to say we are living it out and then vote for things that further it.

They like to say, "It's a book of fiction, you know." To that I explain the tradition of how a Russian Jew could write something impactful without going to the gulag. Of course, she was here then. However, there are many, many great impactful works of fiction. They are impactful because they applicable.

Leftists absolutely hate this book...

Probably inspired it to be a looter.
