Objectivist Round Up #103 is up at Rational Jenn. On this Independence Day, it might be particularly relevant to read and ponder Adama Reed's piece, "Sunk With the Tea." Food for thought there. I do wish the Tea Partiers well -- or most of them, anyway. But I think the whole movement, such as it is, is going to be easily co-opted by kooks and cranks and the various types of Republicans who have already helped trash this country's heritage -- and Adam's right, there's no need to participate in that, and every reason to avoid it.
Wow, somebody sounded really negative there, didn't he? Hmm, well I didn't really mean to. Today's a good day and will remain so, likely as not. And good reading at the Round Up!
