"Language FAILS."

The commentators threw out their opinion of Rand as shallow,and did not spend even ONE SECOND to justify their view.They didnt even TRY.I suspect these commentators have a fruitfly IQ and have never spoken to someone who isnt a stoned hippie.
Leftists should feel equally insulted by this vid. A lot of smart people are leftists and they realize that views must be backed up with reasons. I am not sure these commentators even understand the concept that views need to be backed up with reason.

Here's an interesting question.Which one of these shitheads is dumber?
1, the one who thinks Ayn Rand is "a convenient muse for the right"
2. the one who's hearing echos of Sara Palin........or
3. the one who thinks Aristotle said " I've said everything there is to be said about the world"
Discuss......
(note to Corey Robin; I know your plan and it's not going to work. THIS WILL NOT GET YOU LAID!)

Someone (Irish) finally stands up to Judge Judyby patrickc27067,364,525 views
Rands great observation is that reality isn't complicated...things ARE what they are and that's that. If things were otherwise then we would have a contradictory universe where things were in constant flux and life as we know it would be impossible.

"Shallow" would more accurately describe the three commentators in this ridiculous video.
