| That would be the same Mao Zedong who had Chinese who merely disagreed with his views tortured to death or executed after show trials.

Glenn Beck showed an absolutely damning video of Anita Dunn on his show yesterday. As everyone knows, she is the White House communications director who has declared war on Fox News. The video shows Dunn giving a speech in which she highlights the two most important political philosophers shaping her outlook on politics: Mao Zedong and Mother Teresa. The first ?political philosopher? Dunn is praising was a tyrannical dictator who imprisoned, tortured, and killed millions of his own people. In fact, it is estimated that the Chinese Communists ? led, inspired, and controlled by Mao ? have killed 65 million Chinese citizens since 1949 through the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, and the Gulag system of slave-labor prisons (the ?Laogai? system) that Mao implemented.
Imagine what would happen if a White House communications director cited Adolf Hitler as one of her favorite political philosophers. Not only would it be an above-the-fold, front-page story in every major newspaper in the country, but there would also be outraged howls in the editorial pages. Mao killed more people than Hitler ? they were two of the three worst mass murderers of the 20th century (the third being Joseph Stalin). However, the revelation of Dunn?s comments will probably be greeted by the mainstream media with a big collective yawn.
