Remember the Cyndi Lauper song?

John Wilkes Booth was a hero. Abe Lincoln, not so much. Confederate flag mask: OK, even patriotic American (despite being in bloody rebellion to keep blacks as pets for whatever reason…and because they lost an election, no longer had control of Supreme Court, no longer could gerrymander and hold power way out of proportion to their population as America entered the Industrial Revolution and left yeoman farming and plantations behind).

I’m sold (not literally–sorry for the pun). I would love being a “Libertarian” if there weren’t garden variety wingnuts, racists, elitists/big biz/billionaire sociopath apologists and plutocrats masquerading as such. It was a nice try, but we see with various issues–foreign policy, military incursions, socio-cultural and scientific affairs, business-homes-jobs, etc. etc., something’s come out in the wash and collected in a ring…

I guess the items in the piece were just some dirty liberal’s meth pipe dream (oops sorry, meth is the drug of choice for rednecks), or a fluke. Funny how I can, at times, stomach the dad Ron, but not Rand. Even met him once at RT America’s studio, spoke. Nutty as a fruitcake at times, but compelling, others.  Rand’s nothing but a wingnut wearing one of his dad’s old coats…
