Rosie, what's happening in congress typically happens in socialist states... go read Atlas Shrugged.

Why are they bringing up this book so much? Is it Oprah's book of the month pick or something?
No I haven't read it, I tend not to read books that I've only heard bad about.
@ausador
John Galt is an asshole.
I have a terrible confession. I actually like 'Atlas Shrugged' and 'The Fountainhead'.
That being said, I totally disagree with the philosphy espoused within the stories and anyone who uses Ayn Rand as some authority to win an argument instantly loses all credibility with me.
What this has to do with Congress escapes me. These dolts wouldn't know a socialist if one bit them on the arse.
Anything that seems to imply some kind of social justice and compassion gets called socialist. It's insane.
Pity they don't really read their Bibles, instead of just spouting some propaganda spewed from the pulpit or right-wing talk radio, because everything Jesus supposedly stood for fits what these morons consider socialist.
Hey, making people spit coffee is what I'm all about.
... a movie? Great Galt's Gulch, what a prospect. Maybe they can spice it up with Dagny Taggart getting porked by industrialists a lot. A thing Ayn Rand would have loved to have happen to her, if you ask me.
These knuckle-draggers have a new word to misrepresent.
To them Atheist = Satanist = Muslim = Socialist = Evolutionist = Fascist = Communist = Anarchist = Harry Potter.
Check your motha fuckin head.
Confused?
