Note to Eric, if pushing O’Reilly books and films is considered to be an example of being manly ? I would rather spend a lifetime as a child.Besides I don’t look good wearing knee pads all day

How did a little-known college professor unseat a powerful House Majority leader??

He’s a right wing demagogue who told the tea people what they wanted to hear?
“Brat has taught classes for a program sponsored by BB&T bank that aims to spread Ayn Rand’s principles to college students. Brat got a $500,000 grant from the bank to bring the program to Randolph-Macon College and co-authored a paper titled ‘An Analysis of the Moral Foundations in Ayn Rand.
But looking over Professor Brat’s faculty page, you get the sense of his, um, intellectual perspective. A sample: “God and Advanced Mammon—Can Theological Types Handle Usury and Capitalism?”
No, we did not make that up. Brat actually attended Princeton Theological Seminary at one time, which is known to be a right-wing hotbed. The moral gymnastics required to defend usury from a Christian point of view are not too much for Professor Brat.
As the Wall Street Journal reports, Brat has also mused on the need for a church model that fully supports capitalism, warning that if we don’t get on that, a new Hitler will surely rise.”
