Subject: Mark Steyn: Limbaugh bad, Mao good
CJH    10/18/2009 5:33:25 PM
Mark Steyn: Limbaugh bad, Mao ... "So if I understand correctly: Rush Limbaugh is so "divisive" that to get him fired Leftie agitators have to invent racist sound bites to put in his mouth. But the White House communications director is so undivisive that she can be invited along to recommend Chairman Mao as a role model for America's young."

Turns out McCarthy was right after all!
 
May God have mercy on all of us!

Nah, McCarthy was still a dick.  But even he would probably take one look at Dunn and go "Damn, lady.  Don't the Commies teach you to be subtle?"

Left out here was Mark Lloyd - the FCC 'Diversity' czar, caught on video commenting about how "in Venezuela Hugo Chavez has had and incredible democratic revolution..."
 
Of course Chavez hasn't killed millions, or even thousands - yet. He just first villifies any business he doesn't like, then takes them over (the latest being 'bourgeois' golf courses). Wait just a moment... demonize and then attempt to take over - that sounds a bit familar doesn't it?
 
Congress is even in on the act - Democrat Congressmen/women have recently visited Cuba and come back beaming and babbling on about how much they admire Fidel and Raul Castro.
 
But its not just Limbaugh being attacked. If you go to a TEA party to protest rising taxes and growing government you're a Domestic Terrorist. If you protest the government taking over 1/6 of the economy with a Health Care "Reform" bill you're a racist. So being a critic of Obama and his policies=bad,  loving murdering or dictator communists and Marxist doctrine=good - maybe even good enough to get you appointed by the Obama administration.  Its a crazy mixed up world.

Sure, though i was only noting the defining irony, that moment in history as this can best represent, with the hopes that the succeeding generations of US citizens can slap themselves on their foreheads in wonderment and astonishment at what we could have possibly been thinking in electing the most Marxist administration in US history! (In which, my father appears to have been absolutely right, my generation seems more full of commies than any other in this country's history.) Of course, i am basing the former statement on presumptions and in respectful regards to what all other republics had faced before ours; Which is... that ancient invisible curse for a choice, that so called proverbial fork in the road.... which will we eventually choose.... death from within or death from without brought on by the much prophesied birth of the real US empire, the American Empire! The question must be asked, what will the final price be?
 
***sigh*** Anyways... Subtlety seems to be no longer needed in the face of a half way complacent electorate that had bought into this nonsense!

Given the deplorable lack of education in this country, I'm surprised we didn't end up electing the winner of the last Survivor or American Idol competition.
 
I must admit to something that brought a smile to my face today--a student asking why we weren't supporting the Iranians protesting against the mullahs.  This same student asked, "If Iran's threatening to touch off a nuclear arms race with the Gulf Kingdoms, you'd think we'd want a democratic revolution in Iran to stop that.  So why aren't we supporting them, professor?"
 
I could only shrug and say, "Good question."

Your wrong, the commies have been in the office since Woodrow Wilson. Back then it was the progressives, then came the new deal, the great society and the third way. Now they don't need to hide who they are, because socalism is gaining more support in this country, and the far left of the democratic party is just as red as any other socalist party in history.

American education is great!
 
And McCarthy's first name is Jenny, not Joe - what are you thinking. And what did she ever say about cominism...
 
;-) sorry couldn't resist...

Whoa, Joe.  Progressivism had some socialist ideas in it, but it was not Communism.  Marx was a reactionary against technology; Progressivism embraced it.  Marx loathed the idea of ordinary people in power; Progressivism was responsible for the initiative/referendum process and direct election of senators and judges.  It was also Progressives who got meat inspection set up and promoted conservationism--while there were some Progressives that were "fence off the land so no dirty human can get in" (Muir, to a lesser extent Pinchot), there were more who believed in preserving the land as a renewable resource (Roosevelt, Weyerhauser). 
 
Progressives did suffer from a "punish the rich" mentality and a mania for destroying corporations, whether or not they were bad or good--the definition of which they themselves could never settle on; Roosevelt and Taft were hell-bent on wrecking Northern Securities and Standard Oil, but TR was perfectly good with US Steel.  All that aside, early 20th Century Progressives were a world apart from the "progressives" of today.  Teddy Roosevelt would be sickened by the "peace at any price" mentality of so-called modern progressives. 
 
Calling TR a Communist invites him coming back from the grave, ripping your head off, and eating your brains while yelling what a bully meal it is, dee-lighted!

The more i think about it with each passing day, the less annoyingly irritated i am and the more frightened i am becoming too have such a government official telling graduating students that their favorite philosopher is Mao and he should be imitated! Bullsh!t!!!!!!
 
This man Mao who led and brutally murdered millions of his own countrymen in the search of some commie utopia vs. Rush L. a commentator on the radio with his opinion.
 
It is a sign of the times that Anita Dunn has not been tarred, feathered and ran out of town yet for such a horrendously callous and yet such a blatantly indoctrinating comment to make too impressionable students with their careers still ahead of them! Will even one of them take her to heart and be the next US Mao, the murder of millions of Americans?
