Did Ayn Rand cause the GFC?

It’s a strange day when I excerpt a column by eccentric Leftist Matt Taibbi but I am running the excerpt below because he is nearly right. That Ayn Rand is responsible for trust in markets is of course just attention-getting nonsense. That trust goes back to Adam Smith, centuries ago, and even Left-leaning [...]

This is richly ironic in view of the fact that the same country is prosecuting Geert Wilders for telling the truth about the Koran. Dutch cowardice is obviously alive and well.

And by “warm and fuzzy,” I mean they threaten his life
Hamas released an animated film Sunday bearing a grisly message for Israel: If it doesn’t meet the Islamic militant group’s demands, an Israeli soldier it has held for nearly four years could return home in a coffin.

A general mish-mash of news, starting with CNN, which called the demonstration Sunday “largely peaceful.” Does that mean that there were acts that were not peaceful, too? They don’t say. They do say this
Chanting “Yes we can,” waving American flags and holding signs reading “We have rights” and “We are human,” demonstrators kept [...]

A middle-school teacher made her students join her in protesting budget cuts (video here). Unfortunately for her, it looks like her protest did nothing but prove that perhaps our teachers are, in fact, overpaid and underqualified. Check out the sign one of her students was found holding:
It’s a good thing this teacher, Terry [...]

It’s simply amazing that a piece of legislation that was unread by the people who voted for it, and is over 2,400 pages, should cause confusion. I mean, seriously, “What good is reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it [...]

Russians have been routinely navigating parts of the North Eastern passage through the Arctic for over a century so are acutely aware of what the year-to-year variations in it are
A Russian scientist says the Arctic may be getting colder, not warmer, which would hamper the international race to discover new mineral fields.

-By Warner Todd Huston
A few weeks ago several British civil service unions launched a two-day strike over cuts in severance pay that the government authorized for workers that were let go because of reductions in the government work force (called a “redundancy cut”).
The cap in “redundancy pay,” said British government unions, could see workers losing [...]

In a world run by moonbats, there’s a price to be paid for not helping to advance degradation, perversion and depravity. The Girl Scouts are on board with the progressive agenda, going so far as to encourage children to have sex and to keep the STDs they spread secret. But the Boy Scouts, not wanting [...]

Arizona is on the brink of passing a tough new immigration law that some are calling racial profiling. The bill would give police the right to arrest anyone they suspect to be an illegal immigrant if they are unable to produce a driver’s license or identity papers.
Naturally, this has the liberals and [...]
