"Paul and other libertarians are not merely advocates of limited government; they are anti-government. Their objective is not the correction of error but the cultivation of contempt for government itself." -- Michael Gerson, quoted in "Congress' Ayn Rand Caucus" by Robert Stein (and also paraphrased in "Why Do the Tea Partiers Want Chaos?" by Booman: "Their ideology is informed by Ayn Rand, and her dogma that government can only harm the elite individuals whose intelligence, creativity and ambition make society possible. This makes them not small government Republicans but anti-government Republicans.") [thanks to twistedchick for linking to the Alternet article.]
