Here's a point I think you guys missed. There are two reasons to get hot and bothered about Anita Dunn's Mao statement: one, that she's being flip about a historical figure who caused a lot of destruction (the same reason that people got mad about Alan Grayson's reference to deaths caused by our bad health care system as a "holocaust"), and two, that it reveals that she may actually be a Maoist. The first reason is totally fair, but all you really need to do to address it is to say "That was a bad joke and she shouldn't have made it" and then move on, not harp on it on your television show forever. It's clear that the reason that Beck spent so much time on the Dunn comment is that he's trying to make it seem as if his channel is being persecuted by Maoists. In fact, Beck's entire show is all about how Obama is setting up a leftist totalitarian state. It's crazy, and it's exactly why the Obama administration is going after Fox.

As for the "think of the children" angle, is there anyone here who remembers what the speaker at their high school graduation said? I only graduated from high school in 2004 and the only thing I remember about the address is that the woman who gave it was a local news anchor and she made a joke about how much smaller her butt was when she graduated from high school than it is now.
