1. Didn't have to read the post. I was LOL at the thread title.

[Live and Learn]

3. Me too, I figured they would kill each other off shortly. nt

[Plucketeer]

18. But really

One has to wonder how long these three could sit at a table without raising their voices or storming out - or turning into a torrid threesome!

[merrily]

19. Rand Paul was actually named after Ayn Rand. I didn't know that.

Paul Ryan probably wasn't named after Rand Paul or Ron Paul, though.

[Plucketeer]

20. Oh my!

INbreeding! THAT would explain a LOT!!!

[merrily]

22. LOL!

[gregcrawford]

27. Actually, no, he wasn't named after Ayn Rand.

I had read that somewhere, too, and believed it until recently. Apparently, his given name is Randal. But "Rand" is just TOO convenient a nickname, given the Paul family's slavish devotion to the bitch-goddess of pathological selfishness.

[merrily]

31. Thanks. I like facts.

The myth is a better story, though!

[FlatStanley]

53. I just call him Rancid Paul.

[merrily]

55. LOL! That makes up for losing the myth.

[ashling]

32. HA! " the bitch-goddess of pathological selfishness. "

I will use that!

[glinda]

48. me too

[Manifestor_of_Light]

44. She named herself after a typewriter.

A Remington Rand. Yes, the people who make Remington rifles.

So what happens if Rand Paul discovers he was named after a typewriter???

[Art_from_Ark]

49. The usual nickname for "Randal" is "Randy"

so I have the sneaking suspicion that the Ayn Rand connection is stronger than what is let on, especially considering the political disposition of the Paul family.

[calimary]

29. Barrump-bump!

LOVE it!!! GREAT joke!

[Laelth]

2. k&r for the truth. Libertarianism is dumb. n/t

4. Just like our

bastardized capitalistic system; dumb and deadly (that is being very kind). Any economic system based on "survival of the fittest"
is evil and unsustainable.
I am elated that Bernie Sanders will probably run for POTUS. IF we can get Americans to vote then Bernie stands a good chance of winning. It will be the first time in my life that I will be able to vote without holding my nose. Well Carter was an exception but I knew then that he was too honest and not convinced of our need for reform (before Reagan the need was not as obvious).
Bernie will lead us in the non-violent fight against the status quo.

[Laelth]

16. I gotta say ...

I would love for Bernie Sanders to run and win, but I am particularly excited about his running in 2016 because he will give cover to other candidates (specifically the Elizabeth Warren and Martin O'Malley types) who may challenge Hillary from the left. If Bernie runs and sets the left margin of the debate, either O'Malley or Warren could run between him and Hillary and potentially win the nomination.

I'd like to see that happen.

5. Kicked and recommended a whole bunch!

Thank you, Earth_First.

[socialist_n_TN]

6. But...but...but... the "Invisible Hand" will take care of that bar......

It'll lose business because and close down because it's patrons die, so no need to worry!

Of course when it does go out of business, it'll just reopen under a new name and kill more. But that a small price to pay for our libertarian paradise! And once again for the irony challenged, this is .

[rpannier]

50. The invisible hand needs to backhand Rand Paul and Paul Ryan

Though I'd be happy if it'd stop pleasuring itself and go away

[alterfurz]

7. Bush era version

A fundamentalist, a war criminal, and a moron walk into a bar. The bartender says, "What'll it be, Mr. President?"

[hifiguy]

14. That actually deserved

a Pinkie Pie rimshot. That meme is saved for only the best zingers.

[calimary]

30. Love this, too!

A fundamentalist, a war criminal, and a moron. Or "moran". Whichever works.

I'd change the punchline to "Mr. Resident." But that's just me. And it's likely nobody'd get it.

[Paladin]

8. Just what I needed: a happy story to start my day! (nt)

[samsingh]

9. so true

[AlbertCat]

10. They are buried in a common grave with one head stone:

Ayn Rand Rand Paul Paul Ryan
Ting Tang Walla Walla Bing Bang

[KansDem]

12. Or...

Ayn Rand Paul Ryan

[louis-t]

17. Becky Becky Stan Stan...

[catbyte]

52. Ha ha ha, AlbertCat! "Ooo eee ooo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang...

oooo eee ooo aah aah ting tang walla walla bing bang...I LOVED that song when I was a little kid. I was about 3 when "Witch Doctor" came out & I would stomp around the house singing it & playing that 45 rpm record on my little record player until I drove my mom so crazy that she resorted to hiding it, LOL. I STILL remember all the words to it. Thanks for the boogie down Memory Lane!

walk into a bar together. After a few drinks Ayn says to Rand, "Use me like the whore I am, take me, take me violently, and give to me your wanton masculine prowess."

Rand Paul looks Ayn up and down and says, "So, whats in it for me?"

[Raster]

13. DING!

[BlancheSplanchnik]

24. !

[PCIntern]

33. That is a first-class joke! Thanks! nt

[Manifestor_of_Light]

45. Where's Dagny Taggart?

Didn't Howard Roark rape her and get away with it?
Does this unreadable piece of fiction call for slut-shaming?
Or is this the "free market" at work?

[rhett o rick]

46. Good one! nm

[Gothmog]

15. Thanks for posting

[BlindTiresias]

21. Wow

I guess the free market does provide!

[BlancheSplanchnik]

23. HAAAAA! heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Good! Very good!

[Uncle Joe]

25. Two chemists walk into a bar, the first one orders H2O

the second one says I will have H2O too.

The second one dies.

Thanks for the thread, Earth_First.

[nxylas]

26. We need a Ryan Ayn

You know, to complete the circle.

[hifiguy]

28. And there was much rejoicing!

[Vattel]

34. If you can do a good whale song imitation, here is a funny joke:

"A whale walks into a bar and says:" Now do a long series of whale song noises, the longer and goofier the better to build tension and impatience. Then say, "Then the bartender says, 'Shut the fuck up Frank!'"

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

35. Hmmmmmmm

I'd write it like this;
Ayn Rand, Rand Paul and Paul Ryan walk into a bar. The bartender says "I've hit the trifecta. A hack, a hick and a prick'

[Historic NY]

36. Wonderful, 3 holes with one cup.

[llmart]

37. I love DU humor.....

Reading this thread has made me laugh today and that's a good thing!

DU'ers have the best humor. I don't know any Repukes with any humor.

Just saying.

[DirkGently]

38. And because there is Tort Reform ...

their estates' only remedy is to sue for the market value of their remains!

[malaise]

39. That is one cold fugging

DUzy! Love it

[niyad]

40. I am soooooo glad I put my drink down before I read this!!

[Half-Century Man]

41. Ayn Rand, Rand Paul, and Paul Ryan walk into a bar.....

1: Drink the rounds bought for them and by the house nothing.
2: A Browning's Automatic Rifle.
3: Stuffed $67.00 in the juke box and selected "My Way" over and over again.
4: Happy Hour Died.

[EEO]

42. And they all lived happily ever after with Republican Jesus.

[GETPLANING]

43. And we all lived happily ever after
