And the selling of his soul continues.....
ReplyDeleteWhat a damn shame. People called it early that he would not carry on his father's legacy, however. I don't know who will at this point in time.
ReplyDeleteAmash seems pretty good - although still falls short of Ron in many ways.
DeleteYes, what a shame. More proof that the entire system is corrupted and compromised beyond repair from within. The only repair will come from without them at the local state level...
DeleteIt is to laugh.
ReplyDeleteBut seriously. The next step is for Rand to change his last name. There's no way around it. It will be a quiet ceremony in the home of, say, Mitch McConnell. It will be a pleasant affair. The new Mr Rand Reagan will emerge from the ceremony cleansed of his hereditary sins.
Very disappointing, but not surprising. Looks to me like a damn good reading list. The way Rand keeps going, if he gets the nomination I will continue to sit out the election, or vote libertarian.
ReplyDeleteHe'll have to change his first name too.
ReplyDeleteWhile I would be mostly likely to believe this is simply to keep from having to discuss and defend these books rather then focus on his message when attacked, rather than he has changed his views, those of you that think otherwise will still be able to switch your support to Hillary Clinton.
ReplyDeletePlease provide a link to the book list. I can't seem to find any book list on any of his websites.
ReplyDeleteHe removed the entire Student page from his website. Your blog post above makes it sound like he censored the above list from other readings. Man, your bias is really showing through.
ReplyDeleteNo Milton Friedman?
ReplyDelete"Milton Friedman is the Establishment's Court Libertarian."
