I cannot stand such drivel.

Hannity is a nice guy, but wears the "patriotism label" too extremely.

Sarah Palin is on the right track, but her life story is not that interesting to me.

Bill O'Reilly is a centrist with a lot of common sense, but again, I don't need to read him.

But have they read any works by Marx? So, how would they know what 'marxism' is?
How many know who he is? Or that he was an actual person?

You've obviously never read her.

And you once asked how poor people can vote against their own good.

Ayn Rand was in favor personal liberty and responsibility without someone forcing their moral beliefs upon you. (that includes gay marriage)

Here's the funny part about gays and socialism......"Views on LGBT rights and homosexuality in general throughout communist history have ranged from acceptance to apathy to condemnation. While homosexuality has sometimes been labeled by communists as "one of the effects of capitalist sociality"[1][2] and the product of the bourgeoisie,[3][4][5] most communists, especially in recent times, have argued that Gay Liberation is a key issue according to Marxism."
