This is like shooting fish in a barrell. Who are these people? LINK quote:
At what point does America correlate Obama's friends and associates with him? Why is it that we can discern fakes, phonies and degenerates when choosing our friends but fail to use those principles when choosing the leader of the free world?

Here's what this is really about: Interim Media Strategist Leads Salvo Against Fox http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/10/14/AR2009101403850.html So Fox uses it's massive resources to scour every word she has ever uttered and this is the best they can come up with. I guarantee you this is going nowhere. As for who she is, she is one of the most highly regarded and sought after people in the business: Dunn, began her career in the Carter White House, first as an intern for White House Communications Director Gerald Rafshoon and then worked for chief of staff Hamilton Jordan. She worked on the campaign of Senator John Glenn (D-OH), and on Capitol Hill before joining the firm founded by Bob Squier and Bill Knapp in 1993. She has been the top adviser to Senator Bill Bradley (D-NJ), including serving as the chief strategist for his presidential campaign, Senator Evan Bayh (D-IN), and former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD). She was hired by then-Senator Barack Obama in 2006 to direct communications and strategy for his political action committee, The Hopefund. This move signaled to many that Obama was nearing a run for the presidency. While advising Hopefund and Obama in 2006, she was instrumental in the preparations for the launch of Obama for America, and brought many key staffers to the Obama campaign with whom she had worked in Bayh or Daschle's offices. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anita_Dunn

Actually, Glen Beck showed a video of her speaking to HIGH SCHOOL students LAST June. She said that she admired the political philosophies of Mao Tse Tung and Mother Theresa. Didn't Mao murder 70-100million of his people?

The philosophies Dunn is referring to are in his early writings which are admired by many.

Mao was an awful person and an awful leader of a country, but he was pretty smart with warring and revolutioning and had a lot of endurance. I think that, given the context and her explanation, that woman isn't advocating Maoism or anything like it.

"Oh, Great Leader wasn't such a bad guy! He wrote poetry and thought deep thoughts and his farts all smelled like roses!" And why do you do it? To keep your political messiah's halo from getting tarnished when it is found out that he surrounds himself with socialists, radicals, and morons. Gag me.

If I create a great work of art, then commit a heinous crime, does the heinousness of my crime make the work of art less great? Does the greatness of the work of art make the crime less heinous?

They are also able to have a conversation about such things without resorting to simpleminded hyperbole. People of reasonable intellect would never call GWB a war monger, war criminal, or murderer, because he wasn't. He simply was not competent enough to manage two wars, and the result of his incompetence was 5000 dead American solders, 25000 severely wounded American solders, and somewhere on the order of a half a million dead Iraqis with little to show for it. Dunn is eminently qualified for her position. If she would work for republicans, any republican would be happy to have her. She is one of the reasons Obama won, and one of the reason he will win again, easily, in 2012. People of reasonable intellect know for a absolute fact that this is nothing more than a Fox hatched job that will amount to nothing.

I'm pretty sure she was half-joking about Mao being a favorite philosopher anyways, given her quip about him and Mother Theresa not often being paired with each other. I don't really see the controversy here.

Maybe you and Huangshan should look at some pictures of Mao's military executing people. Millions of people.

She ought to be fired either way; seriously quoting Mao or joking about him being a philosopher to high school kids.

How much of a joke would it have been if she chose Hitler in place of Mao? Hitler was a total piker compared to Mao when it comes to sheer murder. It wasn't a joke. This is exactly what she meant to transmit to these kids because the people popping up in this administration see themselves as pulling off a revolution, guaranteed. This lady's husband is Obama's personal attorney, so I wonder how Obama will separate himself from this latest marxist eruption.

ORIGINAL: utilityfielder Perhaps they were agreeing with her. They're high schoolers and educators. They probably have no idea what Mao really did (students), or they've so justified their own ideology and white-wash of history that they're in denial (educators). I used to teach HS, so I know of what I speak.

For those of us in Western Civilization who are not ChiComm apologists, we find that a hilarious rationalization for a murderer. I mean it's not as though he didn't write down his intentions. Do Stalin's apologists use this too? And, bad news for the folks in denial, there's more on the way. Stay tuned.
