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.
"The Mao quote is one I picked up from the late Republican strategist Lee Atwater from something I read in the late 1980s, so I hope I don't get my progressive friends mad at me," Dunn told CNN.

It's Lee Atwater's fault. How convenient that he is dead.

Why not? Dead Democrats can run for office and even vote after being deceased for centuries. Not a stretch to think of them quoting something someone said after they passed on.

I didn't see anything about any specific quote in the video I watched. She just said that Mao was one of her favorite political philosophers.
It used to be that liberals were allowed to rewrite history from a decade ago. Now they are allowed to rewrite it from yesterday.
