Big Game Hunter

And People Eating Tasty Animals is in an outrage over the Obama killing a fly. Get a life.

And of course all the media in the tank making him out to be the "big game hunter"

Who is John Galt?

I don't know who John Galt is but, I am sick and tired of every news station playing back the fly slapping event like it was a great feat of skill. Now if he had slapped Nancy Pelosi down like that it would have been news worthy! LOL

John Galt is a fictional character in the novel "Atlas Shrugged" by cult-like movement leader, likely manic-depressive failed-writer-turned-self-made-philosopher Ayn Rand (a career path eerily similar to that of her contemporary, L Ron Hubbard, sans the more religious overtones).

For some reason, throngs of right-wingers who have never read the book nor could tell Objectivism if it bit them straight in the object itself have recently become enamored with the Galt meme.

Well this is one "right winger" who has read the book and is reading it again. Seems to be what is happening today.

Have you actually read the book? Or did you just google John Galt?

How's that Kool Aid SloMo?

I actually started this thread because of the absurdity of PETA. Not the Obama.

And here I was expecting your daily president bashing thread!

By the way for once I fully agree with you... PETA are beyond absurd!

Stop that!

Question about Canadian Health Care for you. How long of a wait if you just need a regular/follow up appointment?

(Why am I going to feel like I should have asked this in a PM? It's not to start another HC argument)

Yeah, PETA are ridiculous, and Obama swatting a fly is not newsworthy (though it was kinda cute, and the media are all about that).

Ayn Rand is an awful writer.

Let's not go there. There is a lot to criticize about your health system, too. At least, in Canada, everybody has a chance.

Like I said I kinda knew I should have PM'd the question. It's for information, to learn, to question, not to argue.

No the media are all about the Obama.

Have you actually read a book? And I'm not talking about Archie's Digest or Nancy Drew.

I do read and have read quite a bit in my life. She's actually a good writer. You don't like her because of your liberalism.
