Fox News has sent a message it’s ready to play hardball with the White House Communications Director who says she’s going to treat Fox News “the way we treat an opponent”

Playing hardball with Democrats is reporting what they say.

We have two sources of actual news: England and Fox.

Canada has been fairly good also ...

"giving an inspirational address last June to an audience of high school students in which she quotes from one of her “favorite political philosophers”, one of the “two people she turns to most”, who turns out to be Mao Tse-tung."

Apparently, the White House has joined the Warsaw Pact.

white male” strategy for explaining her lunacy.


Obama aide fires back at Beck over Mao remarks
CNNPolitics.com ^ | October 16th, 2009 04:06 PM ET |
Suzanne Malveaux and Ed Hornick

White House communications director Anita Dunn fired back at criticism
from TV commentator Glenn Beck on Friday, saying that a Mao Tse-tung
quote Beck took issue with was picked up from legendary GOP strategist Lee Atwater. “

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2364219/posts

Basically, she says the Mao and Mother Teresa comment was a joke...
she says it was a quote she lifted from the late Lee Atwater.

Yeah, it was just a joke Anita.
One nobody else on the planet got.

PS: As far as I know, Anita hasn’t given us a citation for said
quote from Lee Atwater.

This really should come as no surprise to anyone that Anita Dunn is an unapologetic admirer of the Communist butcher Chairman Mao, who has the blood of millions on his hands.

We already know that this illegal 0bamunist regime is shot through with Communists, socialists, Islamofascist sympathizers, and terrorist sympathizers, it is already a Vichy-style regime, the real question is “where are they getting their orders from?”

In 1947, when Mao Tse Tung was being challenged within his own party on his plan to basically take China over, Chiang Kai‑shek and the Nationalist Chinese held the cities, they had the army, they had the air force, they had everything on their side. And people said, “How can you win? How can you do this? How can you do this against all of the odds against you?” And Mao Tse Tung said, you know, “You fight your war, and I’ll fight mine.”

Ironically this lesson is one more suited to conservatives since the liberals control the schools, the universities, the media, federal government and the state and local bureaucracies. We need to find a new way to fight.

Mao said a lot of things—some were wise—but the blood on his hands stains them all. We in the Conservative Movement—the Reform Movement need to work to get these hippie clowns out of positions of power. We need to clean house in Washington DC. Corruption is the foe. We need a movement with the Republican Party to purify the party with logic, honesty and reform. It must be like a religious revival in its fever. We need to clean out the RINOs or—if we can not—start a new second party to replace the GOP/DNC party we have now. Its that or buy Mao’s Little Red Book and start memorizing quotes.

And people said, “How can you win? How can you do this? How can you do this against all of the odds against you?” And Mao Tse Tung said, you know, “You fight your war, and I’ll fight mine.”

In 1934, Adolf Hitler was leading his National Revolution, which had been elected at the ballot box. He was challenged within his own party by Ernst Roehm, who headed the 400,000 man strong civilian security force, the SA, Sturmabteilung. Roehm wanted the SA turned into the military, replacing the legitimate defense force of the Wehrmacht, the German army.

Hitler met this challenge successfully and personally saw Roehm arrested and executed. Hitler also rounded up the other conspirators and saved the Army from takeover.

How is this explanation different in morality to what Anita Dunn has said about Mao? Having a mass murderer apologist in his inner circle is self-evidently acceptable to Obama. That's the bottom line. And it's not the only one. Obama's pal terrorist Bill Ayers talked about the need to kill 25 million Americans. Hey, Anita Dunn and Obama, by implication, are on board for that.

And the wonder why Americans are buying firearms like mad and buying up ammunition into shortage status.

Exactly what they are doing to and in Honduras in late 2009.

I agree with your strategy and the order of things we need to do. One thing we really do need to do is DROP the word (and I know you did not use it) "Third Party" (due to American traditional allergy to anything outside of the Two Party System, which is not estalished law but mere tradition more than anything else. It is burnished into our psyche for better or worse, but it is an unmovable truth). What needs to replace "Third Party" by conservatives is the far more tactical "Conservative Party", or "Alternative Conservative Party", but not "third party". "Third party" is too loaded of a concept, is a negative, minimalization, rinky-dink-like and conveys weakness and guaranteed defeat. Words have meaning and power, I have essentially dropped the use of "Third Party", although I am now entirey for that option these days if the GOP cannot be effectively de-RINOized all the way to the senior levels.

I would even suggest such a new party be called "National Conservive Party" (NCP) and its members in the Congress and Senate and in local offices would be called "the National Conservatives", right along there with "the Democrats", and "the Republicans". I know it sounds a bit Canadian or European, but we can get used to it and we as a nation may well need to go that direction if we are hopelessly and powerlessly harnessed to McCain-ism again.

You can’t make this stuff up. Conservatives accuse Obama of being a hard-core leftist, and he does his best to oblige. Is there a sign in the White House hiring department that says “only nutty leftists need apply”?

"Exactly what they are doing to and in Honduras in late 2009."

I agree, and I burn with shame at the conduct of this government.

Funny, earlier today someone posted a jubilant article about the 20th anniversary of "The Defeat of Communism." I expressed some skepticism about it and another FReeper called me a clown. I've always thought that our high-fiving, and popping corks when the USSR collapsed was wrongheaded. For an embarrassing number of decades I've watched the American left collaborate with every mortal enemy our country had, all while patiently taking over our press, educational system and entertainment industry. I've watched them systematically balkanize our society to the point where we're easily manipulated and controlled. Now with this recent election I've had an unshakeable sense that a trap had been sprung. Everyday I'm stunned by their arrogance and smug brazenness about their ideology and their objectives...and the way people have been seemingly so well conditioned to accept it. One can almost hear Norman Thomas and Nikita Khrushchev laughing together. Hopefully not at this clown.
