Another kooky Barack Obama appointee became
publicly known this month and quickly was thrown or voluntarily
threw herself under the bus. Anita Dunn, the White House
communications director (who led Obama's war on Fox
News), said that Mao Zedong
was one of her two favorite "political
philosophers" whom "I turn to most" for
answers to important questions.
History identifies Mao as a ruthless savage, not as
a philosopher. He probably holds the record for ordering the mass
murder of more people (50 million to 100 million) than anyone else
in history.
Dunn tried to claim that her statement was a joke,
but anyone can look at her actual speech on Youtube and see that
she spoke in deadly earnest. Dunn was part of Obama's inner
circle and a senior media adviser during the 2008 presidential
campaign.
Dunn's husband, Bob Bauer, an expert on
campaign financing, fundraising and voter mobilization, is
Obama's personal lawyer. He has just been
appointed White House counsel, where he will be in charge of
vetting Obama's appointees.
Obama's green jobs czar, Van Jones, had to exit
in disgrace after he admitted that "I was a Communist."

Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, wrote a
book in 2008 in which he declared that the government "owns
the rights to body parts of people who are dead or in certain
hopeless conditions, and it can remove their organs without asking
anyone's permission." So, after the death consultants
authorized in Nancy Pelosi's health-care bill convince you to
reject lifesaving procedures, the organ-transplant team can remove
your body's organs immediately.
Czar Sunstein also argues that animals are entitled
to have lawyers to sue humans in court. Bow, wow - more business for trial lawyers.
His wife, Samantha Power, is now on Obama's National
Security Council. She is famous for writing a
Pulitzer-Prize-winning book about genocide, which she defined
so narrowly that it excluded Josef Stalin and Mao.
Obama's nominee for the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission, Chai R. Feldblum, signed a 2006 manifesto
endorsing polygamous households. This lengthy
document, called "Beyond Same-Sex Marriage," argues
that traditional marriage should not be "privileged
above all others."
Obama's education appointments, who came out of
the Chicago political machine right along with Rahm Emanuel and
David Axelrod, will have nearly $100 billion in new money to
indoctrinate America's youth. Obama Secretary of Education Arne
Duncan is notorious for trying to start a gay high school in
Chicago.
Obama's safe schools czar, Kevin Jennings,
founded the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network, a homosexual
activist group that now has thousands of chapters at high schools
across the nation.
GLSEN chapters and materials have promoted sex
between young teens and adults and sponsored "field trips" to gay-pride
parades. Jennings was the keynote speaker at a notorious
GLSEN conference at Tufts
University in 2000 at which HIV-AIDS coordinators discussed
in detail, before an audience including area high-school
students, how to perform various homosexual acts.
Obama's science czar wrote in a college
textbook that compulsory "green abortions" are an
acceptable way to control population growth. We assume that what
makes an abortion green is when the motive for the killing is
population control to serve environmentalist dogma.
Affirmative action is in vogue in Obama's
administration: His diversity
czar has spoken publicly of getting white media executives to
"step down" in favor of minorities. Obama's
first appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court is a woman who
said that a "Latina woman" would make better
judicial decisions than "a white male."
Obama's top lawyer at the State Department,
Harold Hongju Koh, calls himself a transnationalist. That means
wanting U.S. courts to "domesticate" foreign and
international law - i.e., integrate it into U.S. domestic law
binding on U.S. citizens.
Koh is eager to put us under a global legal system
that would diminish our "distinctive rights culture" such
as due process, trial by jury and our First Amendment
"protections for speech and religion" that give "far
greater emphasis and judicial protection in America than in Europe
or Asia." Under global governance, the United States will be
forbidden to allow more freedom and constitutional rights than
other countries.
When Obama's appointee for the 7th Circuit
Court of Appeals, David Hamilton, was a district
court judge, he prohibited the Indiana State Legislature from
giving an invocation that mentioned Jesus, while mention of Allah
was allowed. Hamilton worked for ACORN and the ACLU, and even the
liberal American Bar Association rated him "not
qualified."
And we thought the Rev. Jeremiah Wright was an
embarrassment to Barack Obama when he was running for president! We
never dreamed Obama would actually appoint such a collection of
weirdos.
