HeiressofBickworth's JournalI have a mental vision of Putin
ridding in the parade in the first military vehicle, like the conquering hero he imagines himself to be.
He is a puzzle. His ego was probably not massaged enough during the Olympics so a month later, he in Crimea with plans for further conquests. Personally, I think he's delusional. But like any crazy person with weapons, he's dangerous.
Like so many others, I read a couple of Rand books
in my teens. But unlike right-wingers who developed a fantasy world-view based on Rand's works, I understood, even as a teenager, that the works were fiction -- not real -- no connection to the real world -- and, of no value in governing a town, city, county, state or federal government or even in personal relationships. In other words, I never saw the point of those works of fiction and, frankly, I didn't find the story lines very interesting. So, to me, Rand-worshipers are suffering from stunted development; a juvenile failure to understand that "fiction" means not real.
