Wales is a self-admitted admirer of Ayn Rand and her Godless philosophical system called Objectivism.

Anyone who considers Ayn Rand or Objectivism "Leftist" is a moron.

I'm so glad to see someone posting that Ayn Rand's thinking wasn't leftism... Because, for a moment, I'd thought I'd been totally misled for years...

The morals she espouses are definately leftist--do whatever you want with whomever you want. Her economics are clearly not.

objectivism is a godless and man-exalting ideology.

However, it is more libertarian.

Godless?

Ayn Rand went goo-goo, gah gah over what the Founding Fathers put together. She pined that they "almost got it right" - but, by leaving the door ever so slightly open that the left wing, altruists could drive a truck through, we're in a mess getting messier.

Her writings of experiences with communism and later celebration of free-market capitalism hardly mentions her atheism.
