I’m taking the same amphetamines that Ms. Rosenbaum did they make me paranoid, but an awesome writer...
***********************************************
I think the amphetamine smear is a bit weak ,, during the 1950's and 1960's speed was just about the most prescribed thing in existance... if you really want to slam Alisa Rosenbaum why don't you go after the 14 year affair she had with a man 25 years her junior (as covered in excruciating detail in the current issue of Inc. magazine) ,, of course you would have to acknowledge that her husband knew about it and allowed it to continue.
I don't worship Ayn Rand, she sounds like an absolute nightmare as a wife with her bloated ego , her speed usage, and her well documented contempt for her groupies but her novels Fountainhead and Atlas are fantastic and give the commies amongst us fits. To me it looks like God making lemonade from lemons ,, of course if my family was crushed by the Communist revolution and I had to flee to freedom I might be a bit screwed up too.
