Communism is not love. . .

Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy. Mao Tse-Tung

White House Communications Director Anita Dunn recently praised the thinking of Chairman Mao:

Did I hear that right? Obama's Communications Director is advising an audience to emulate Mao's resolve to take over and enslave an entire country? Mao and Mother Theresa resemble each other because they "did their own thing." Is that what I just heard?

Mao's third wife, Jiang Qing, who also was one of the infamous Gang of Four, saw Mao in a different light than Dunn: "I was Chairman Mao's dog. What he said to bite, I bit."

Perhaps you are curious, as I was, about the location and audience of Dunn's speech. She clearly is speaking from a pulpit. In this video, I discovered, she was addressing the 2009 high school graduating class of St. Andrew's Episcopal School at the Washington National Cathedral.

Mao was a militant atheist who held that "religion is poison" and instituted a policy of eliminating religion in China. Mao had Chinese Christians, Taoists, Buddhists, and Muslims terrorized, tortured, and murdered and ordered their houses of worship destroyed or desecrated. During Mao's dictatorship, the practice of religion was dangerous and existed only in secret. If Mother Theresa had lived in China, Mao would have had her killed.

Added 1:45 p.m.: And now that I think of it, if Mao's "political philosophy" were in practice in the U.S. today, St. Andrew's Episcopal School would not exist, the school's teachers and the clerics at the Washington National Cathedral would have been imprisoned and "re-educated" or murdered, and the Cathedral itself have been razed or commandeered and nationalized for use as government offices, troop housing, a re-education "center," or whatever else the government saw fit.
