White House Communications Director Anita Dunn told high school students in May 2009 that one of her favorite political philosophers was Mao Tse Tung, the Communist dictator responsible for the death of millions of people, and she explained why his philosophy was important for achieving personal and political goals.
When questioned last week after a video of her speech surfaced, however, Dunn said she was using “irony†in reference to Mao. A leading expert on China told CNSNews.com that Dunn’s remarks were “pathetic,†given the human rights atrocities committed under Mao’s reign.
Yeah – Mao is cool. Never mind about those 65,000,000 dead people…they were only Chinese, anyway.
According to the MSM this is nothing worth commenting on. Could you imagine their outcry if a Republican said something like this about Hitler?
These people in the White House are truly bereft of reason.
