Anita Dunn And Mao

Several reader have complained that I have fallen for a Beck trap: out-of--context quotes. But, as I said in my first post, I'm not buying the Beck idea that there are closet Maoists in the Obama administration. I'm buying the idea that some dumb and morally bankrupt lefties simply do not see Mao as he should be seen: as a murderous totalitarian monster. 

Here's the full Dunn quote. I stand by that judgment. Dunn would never have used Hitler as a source for perseverance and setting the right objectives. Why Because Hitler's evil is self-evident. So why is Mao's rancid evil not self-evident for a person like Dunn? Because she retains a double standard for far left totalitarianism over far right totalitarianism. It's that insulting and morally disgusting double standard that gets my goat. Mao was responsible for the deaths of up to 70 million people - and Dunn sees him as a useful strategist.

Disgusting; blind; dumb; appalling.
