Ayn Rand's Revenge

[Robert Mahnke]

Seems like the point of that insult in both cases is to deride the target
for being a woman in a role usually held by a man.  That's not the first (or
second, or third) thing I think of when I think of either Ayn Rand or
Margaret Thatcher, neither of whom I am much fond.  So were I to want to
insult them, I think I'd look for something less gender-specific.  Just my
two cents.
