Unlike, Ms. Dunn who quoted as it being her FAVORITE PHILOSOPHER, President Bush, did not quote it that way!!
"And then the third lesson and tip actually come from two of my favorite political philosophers, Mao Zedong and Mother Teresa -- not often coupled with each together, but the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is, you're going to make choices."

Obviously -- well, obviously to most folks -- neither one of them was a political philosopher. It's an attempt at making a joke and drawing attention to her point, because the two are such an incongruous pairing.

Yeah, because psychopathic dictators are sooooooooooooooo hysterical. Did you know that Mao and Hitler use to tour the Baltics as a vaudeville act before they decided to get into politics?

You are the epitome of an ideological lemming. Pathetic.

Anyone who can overlook her stupid statement deserves the representation they currently have.
The rest of us can be embarrassed FOR her...if only out of respect for all the people who have died for this country.

Aww. Beck lied and you bought it hook, line and sinker. Plus you put up a poll showing how shallow and self-serving is many posters' commitment to the US Constitution. The typical RW approach, a personal attack, doesnt change that. I explained what Dunn was getting at by the deliberately incongruous pairing; if you dont understand it that's not my fault.

What did Beck lie about? I never quoted Beck once; don't need to, the video is there for anyone to see. You are either unwilling or incapable of critical analysis if it involves a radical leftist; hence your lack of credibility. Lemming.

Critical analysis of a misread? Lol. Glenn Beck: sorry, I thought Sanrene´s video was yours. You continue the namecalling: you seem EXTREMELY upset.

Not upset at all, you radical leftists are showing your true colors. Again, what did Beck lie about? Specifically?

This woman spoke publicly about embracing Mao Tse Tung's philosophy in spite of the fact that the man was a mass murderer. If Obama does not fire her, he is an even bigger fool than I pegged him to be.
