Yep, for that I will honor her. I can only wish that she had done it from a believer's perspective.
Do you like David Horowitz at all?
I know much less about him than I do Rand. But the talks I've seen him give (mostly on C-SPAN) have been rather good. He too understands the lefties, but that's because he was once among them. Rand's understanding was at a much deeper level. She's the theorist, he's a popularizer, or so it seems to me.
