Anita Dunn Claims Mao Praise Was An Innocent Joke
American Spectator ^ | October 19, 2009 | Matthew Vadum

Posted on 10/19/2009 10:03:54 PM PDT by RobinMasters

Standup comedian Anita Dunn, who doubles as President Obama's White House communications director, now claims she was only joking when she praised Mao Zedong by calling him “one of the two people that I turn to most,” Glenn Beck revealed on his TV show Monday.

Hilarious ! There have to be 70 million murdered Chinese rolling in the aisles! What a knee-slapper. Beck revealed last week that Dunn idolizes Mao, the brutal Communist dictator of China responsible for the slaughter of tens of millions of innocent victims.

If I were in a position such as hers, I wouldn’t be “joking” about something like that. Just substitute “Hitler” and have a Republican say the same thing and “Poof” they are fired.

She was serious. Just trying to cover her butt.

Holy crap, if you listen to it, there's no doubt she was serious.

Just apologize rather than insult everyone's intelligence.

A “joke” to a high school audience using a quote about one of her favorite philosophers using the biggest mass murder in history? Just like a Democrat, now she tries to lie their way out. The joke is the group of filth Obama has selected to fill dictatorship.

After seeing the video of her making this speech, there was nothing in her demeanor that in any way made what she said a joke. Her delivery wasn’t different from her quotes of Mother Teresa. So was that a joke also?

Clinton announced in the beginning that his administration would be the most ethical in history. We know how well that turned out. That was irony.

Obama said that theirs would be the most transparent in history. They turned out to be the hidden agenda administration. More irony.

Once again, the WH is not sorry for its radical staff, but sorry they got exposed by the evil Fox Non-News Network (FNNN).

Thank you Glen Beck. This never would have been reported by NYT or Wash Post.

Can we now fling the racist card at her? If she was on the right she’d have a whole stack of them whipped at her by now. Along with “bad taste”, “terrible judgment”, “Not funny” and “totally insensitive” peppered in all over.

Quite possibly her head will roll for this if the general public doesn’t buy the “i was just jiving those high school students” story (aka great big fat lie).

At any rate, not too many people would find it the least bit funny to speak of Mao as a great philosopher to a bunch of impressionable high school students.

Sorry, Anita. Not even Mother Teresa could get you out of this one.

Her lips were moving and her tongue kept sticking out of her mouth,
does sticking your tongue out make it joke worthy?

Incredible the lies the media ignores.

No one who has actually seen and heard the speech thinks she was making a joke. She wasn't. She was trying to inspire the kids by telling them a story about her hero.

Yet the MSM will shamelessly push her "just kidding" lie, knowing it to be false. This effort will succeed in convincing many people that her lie is true.

Just a typical day's work for the MSM propaganda machine.
