The war of words between the White House and Fox News is intensifying — and getting personal.

* * * * * *

In an e-mail message, Ms. Dunn said, “My source for the Mao quote was actually the late Lee Atwater, either in an article or bio I read after the 1988 election. Now that I’ve revealed this I hope I don’t get Keith Olbermann angry with me. Let it be noted that I also quoted Mother Teresa, but no one is accusing me of being a saint!”

[GOP_Lady]

Your source for the Mao quote is irrelevant, Ms. Dunn. Your words stand -- you said them.

[Clink]

So, not only is she a Maoist, she’s a plagiarizer.

[bahblahbah]

Anyone know where this is? I think she’s full of shit... I think she wanted to sneak in Mao and had to do it with an icebreaker...

[italianquaker]

Next this fool will say let me be perfectly clear

[Brilliant]

Yes, it’s interesting that she did not disclose her “source” at the time she made the comment.

[Huebolt]

All that lascivious lip-licking tells all you need to know. She was talking about Mao and remembering those golden dope-smoked days of the 60's with herself putting out to a different guy every night, sometimes 4 or 5 guys if they were stoned blind enough to not see how fugly she was, and still is.

BTW, this is not a personal attack, just an unbiased observation.

[Brilliant]

You can bet that if Lee Atwater quoted Mao, it was not in a positive way.

[RetroSexual]

Wait: Atwater said "Mao is one of my favorite political philosophers?" Because I'd be surprised to see that.

These bastards in the White House don't even understand that as being the source of the problem. They think that merely quoting Mao's words is why we're upset.

I'll quote Mao all day long. Hitler too, and Stalin. But you'll never hear me saying they're my "favorite" anything, unless I start making lists of favorite satanic murderers.

[Sunshine Sister]

I wouldn’t accuse anyone in politics of being a saint. Just the opposite!

[The Comedian]

Why didn't she just say "Bush's Fault"?

This is what happens when the insects wander off the talking points plantation.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[J40000]

She was not quoting ANYBODY. She was telling the kids who her ‘inspirations’ were. Plain and simple.

[DGHoodini]

Anybody want to bet that this disgusting, mass murderer worshiping pig, *doesn’t* have a Che Guevara T-shirt among her clothes?

C’mon now! Daddy needs some pocket money! >BoD

[bahblahbah]

So what she’s really saying is that Lee Atwater is one of her favorite philosophers...

[SaveTheChief]

Well my ears must be playing tricks on me. I remember hearing and watching her (uncomfortable though it was) say quite clearly that her two favorite political philosophers were Mother Theresa and Mao. I also remember her going into some detail about why she so admires Mao but saying next to nothing about Mother Theresa.

What I find particularly interesting is that the focus continues to be drawn to peons like Dunn, while Obama - who surrounds himself with Marxist advisers - continues to avoid scrutiny. But that's all part of the plan.

[DGHoodini]

Gee lookie here what she tacitly admitted about Kreep Olberbuttmunch and PMSDNC!

[Candor7]

I think you hit the context very accurately. The problem is that having attained some power in government, her lack of patriotic skill to exercise power becomes obvious. All she is actually is a fugly multi f--k. Thats all she kows how to do. To exercise power one needs honor, and she has none.

She put out rather than exercise honor long ago. Now she has none, or her power to cultivate it has atrophied beyond repair.

And now she wants us all to become her little fugly f--kers?

Sorry , we are not interested , we just want rid of you.

[Hans]

This babe is sophomoric, Lee Atwater made me a Maoist! Right. Maybe democratic party chicks just can't say no.

[Califelephant]

ANITA DUNN: The third lesson and tip actually come from two of my favorite political philosophers: Mao Tse-tung and Mother Teresa. Not often coupled with each other. In 1947, when Mao Tse-tung was being challenged within his own party on his plan to basically take China over, the Nationalist Chinese helped 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 the odds against you?” And Mao Tse-tung said, “You fight your war and I’ll fight mine,” and think about that for a second.

[VeniVidiVici]

Given the brains of the Obama cabinet and czars she probably meant to say she lifted the quote from Lee Harvey Oswald rather than Lee Atwater.
