Anita Dunn: "The third lesson and tip actually comes from two of my favorite political philosophers, Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa. Not often coupled with each other, but the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is: You're going to make choices. ... But here's the deal: These are your choices; they are no one else's.
"In 1947, when Mao Tse Tung was being challenged within his own party on his own plan to basically take China over, Chiang Kai-Shek and the nationalist Chinese held the cities, they had the army. ... They had everything on their side. And people said 'How can you win? How can you do this against all of the odds against you?'
"And Mao Tse Tung says, 'You fight your war and I'll fight mine.' You don't have to accept the definition of how to do things. ... You fight your war, you let them fight theirs. Everybody has their own path."..."
[The following is NOT from Anita Dunn. It's from the author of the linked CNS News article...]
Policies implemented under Mao Tse Tung, including the civil war, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, and persecution in Tibet, among other policies, led to death of an estimated 65 million people, according to The Black Book of Communism (Harvard University Press), which is considered by scholars as one of the best sources on communist atrocities.
Mao also outlawed religion and sent at least 2.5 million people to re-education camps, called laogai, which were similar to the slave-labor camps in the Gulag of the Soviet Union. An estimated 1,000 laogai reportedly are still in operation today

Beck Plays Explosive Video of WH Communications Director (Anita Dunn) Praising Mao (and his revolution):

“The White House’s top communications aide is stepping down at the end of the month and will be replaced by her deputy.”
Quietly hoping we won’t remember the intentional placement of an avowed Maoist to a communications role in the WH.
>>She wasnt gonna make it with anyone anyhow.
>Excellent!! LMAO!
el MAO chairman!
The Nazis were not socialist, they used that term as a cold, calculated political tool to attract support away from the Social Democrats.
Seeing as how they started out in beer halls and were essentially tied to the laborers/blue collar workers of the society, I think that they behaved as socialists until they were transformed into a more militaristic facist party by Hitler’s ambitions later on. Either way, we agree that they shaped their agenda to defeat the communist party in Germany.
So the Mao-lover is stepping down! Woo-Hoo!
Title: Revolution
Artist: John Lennon
"You say you'll change the constitution
Well you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well you know
You better free your mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know know it's gonna be alright
Alright Alright"

The Lost John Lennon Interview
"Power to the People"
TA (interviewer): In a way you were even thinking about politics when you seemed to be knocking revolution?
JL (Lennon): Ah, sure, 'Revolution' . There were two versions of that song but the underground left only picked up on the one that said 'count me out'. The original version which ends up on the LP said 'count me in' too; I put in both because I wasn't sure. There was a third version that was just abstract, musique concrete, kind of loops and that, people screaming. I thought I was painting in sound a picture of revolution--but I made a mistake, you know. The mistake was that it was anti-revolution.
On the version released as a single I said 'when you talk about destruction you can count me out'. I didn't want to get killed. I didn't really know that much about the Maoists, but I just knew that they seemed to be so few and yet they painted themselves green and stood in front of the police waiting to get picked off. I just thought it was unsubtle, you know. I thought the original Communist revolutionaries coordinated themselves a bit better and didn't go around shouting about it. That was how I felt--I was really asking a question. As someone from the working class I was always interested in Russia and China and everything that related to the working class, even though I was playing the capitalist game.
They were conducting nightly running street battles with the Communists for years before they snuck their way into power.
One thing about that — the commies had been giving as good as they got the whole time before Hitler became chancellor. Once that happened, they tried to lie low and wait out the storm and the nazis hunted them down and essentially killed them all. A social democrat might have been able to recant and join the party, but the communists were all killed or sent to the concentration camps which were initially erected just for them and other opponents of the new regime.
Poor commies. Hey, at least they were “giving as good as they got, eh?”
They must have been busy, what with killing 120 million people last century. You sound like a commie apologist. I could care less how many commies the nazis killed, personally. I’m with Patton, however many it was, it wasn’t enough. We should have nuked from Moscow to Berlin.
If the Soviets had fallen, we’d have never had to fight in Vietnam or Korea.
lol...he was “playing the capitalist game...”
Yeah, like a rapist is just playing the “rapist game.” Wait, no...raping someone makes you a rapist.
Becoming a millionaire makes you a capitalist...no matter what lame excuse you present. He could have just not cashed the checks at any time. I don’t think the record execs would have minded.
What an ungrateful POS. “All for me and none for thee.”
Yo, Spi-ike. Welcome to FR. Now STFU. I’m talking about events that happened from 1921-1933, Spi-ike. I just said that Italy and Germany were both willing to let the fricking fascists in if it meant they wouldn’t have to suffer what had happened to Russie. I’m not sticking up for commos, spi-ike. That will NEVER happen. I’m saying they tried to wait out the nazis adn got their throats cut. I’m suggesting that trying to wait out Odinga might get OUR throats cut.
Stalin ordered the German Communists to ally with the Natzis, so the Natzi got to power. This was Stalin’s means of creating a European war, and revolutionary conditions. He new also that the German Communists, in aiding the Natzis, were signing their own deat warrants.

Dunn will return to Squier Knapp Dunn, the consulting firm where she is a partner, but will remain as a consultant to the White House on the communications and strategic matters.
This is a get-well gift to Glenn Beck from all his buddies at the White House :- )
Dunne couldn’t handle the battle to suppress the press critical of Obama.She is not fascist enough. The rest is mere convenience.
Her replacement will be a reincarnation of Joseph Goebbels
I agree on the priority, but sinnce when has conflicyt of interest really stifled an Obama appointment?
No, I believe that she was not conducting the press war stridently enough to suit Axe.
