"A woman as commander-in-chief of the Army, I think is unthinkable."

Well, Ayn of course never got to meet Sarah Palin. Anyway, Rand had a lot of nutty ideas all rapped around her Objectivist philosophy. She had some damned good ideas also. She of course for whatever reason was an atheist. Oh, that WAS the reason, reason she said. Too bad Ayn went to her grave with those thoughts.

Exactly-She was a woman of her time in many ways, so any quotes by her on the subject have to be taken with a LARGE grain of salt. Rand also received Social Security payments in later life, something she SAID she was against, though if she paid into the system, she was “entitled” to receive something out of it.
