Valerie Jarret Wants to Publish Booklets To Explain Obama Agenda

Here Comment on the Tea Party Movement...

"It's an anti-government...I mean that's the Tea Party. They really are, um, are, uh, trying to rebel against government at all. And I think that that's...again it's an extreme. It's always easier to scare people and get them angry when they're already scared...and I think that's what the Tea Party is trying to capture."

Valerie Jarret, Child of the Revolution (wannabe)...

I don't, at least not often, quote entire entries from another blog...it's not nice and is considered bad form. But when a far better writer than I writes something that makes a great point...I copy it and bring it here. The link in the title take you to the raw feed from the Baltimore Mullet Wrapper (oops the Balt Sun).

From the WSJ blog...James Taranto:

David Zurawik, TV critic for the Baltimore Sun, notes a revealing exchange between CNN's Campbell Brown and White House consigliera Valerie Jarrett. (Note that neither Brown nor Jarrett is as fat as she appears in the video; CNN, for some reason, insists on presenting its online videos with the wrong aspect ratio.) Here's the transcript:

>Brown: So do you think FOX News is biased?
Jarrett: Well, of course they're biased. Of course they are.
Brown: OK. Then do you also think that MSNBC is biased?
Jarrett: Well, you know what? This is the thing. I don't want to--actually, I don't want to just generalize all FOX is biased or that another station is biased. I think what we want to do is look at it on a case-by-case basis. And when we see a pattern of distortion, we're going to be honest about that pattern of distortion.
Brown: But you only see that at FOX News? That's all that--you have spoken out about FOX News.
Jarrett: That's actually not true. I think that what the administration has said very clearly is that we're going to speak truth to power.

Good for Campbell Brown for sticking up for a competitor (albeit at the expense of a lesser competitor). And it's pretty funny how Jarrett, after smugly asserting, "Of course they're biased," did not make a pretense of standing by her position when Brown asked a question she would have been prepared for if she had spent any time thinking this through.

Even more risible, though, is the claim that the administration "is going to speak truth to power." Hello, Valerie? Your boss is the president of the United States! No one is more powerful. As we suggested Friday, it really seems as if Obama and his men do not understand what it means to be president. Because their power is constrained--thank you, Founding Fathers!--they labor under the delusion that they are powerless.

Yet while this is all hilarious, it is also scary when you think it through. Great power entails great responsibility. There is little to suggest that Obama and his aides appreciate their responsibility, and much, including their incessant complaining that the previous president did a lousy job, to suggest an attitude of total irresponsibility.

The job of those in power is not to "speak truth to power," though it would be nice if they spoke the truth once in a while. It is to exercise power responsibly. The effort to bully Fox News Channel would be an abuse of power were it not so pathetically inept.

**Mr. Taranto makes a strong point. The Obama Administration really doesn't have a clue about what they are doing. When you are on the outside, it's really very easy to throw grenades...but when YOU ARE THE BOSS, it's vastly different.**

Anita Dunn, Disciple of Chairman Mao

Anita Dunn, in June of this year, addressed a graduating class. In her speech, she said in that Mao Tse Dung and Mother Teresa are, Ms. Dunn explained,

"the two people that I turn to most to basically deliver a simple point, which is to say you are going to make choices, you are going to challenge, you are going to say why not." She then quoted a Mao statement about winning the Chinese civil war his way: "You fight your war and I will fight mine."

To make matters worse, she continued to invoke Chairman Mao, here is the truly damning statement:

"In 1947, when Mao Tse-tung was being challenged within his own party, on his plan to basically take China over, Chiang Kai-shek and the nationalist Chinese held the cities, they had the army, they had the air force, they had everything on their side and people said how can you win, how can you do this, how can you do this against all odds against you, and Mao Tse-tung said 'You fight your war and I'll fight mine.' Think about that for a second, you don't have to accept the definition of how to do things and you don't have to follow other people's choices in the past."

Mr. Obama has surrounded himself with some very odd advisors. First there was Mr. Obama's very long standing friendship with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, two committed communist terrorists. Then, there was 9/11 "truther" Van Jones, who was thrown under the bus and lost his "green jobs" czar role for having made some very revealing statements, not the least of which was admitting to being a committed communist.

"I met all these young radical people of color - I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of... I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary...I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th..By August, I was a communist."

Then, there is science advisor John Holdren who advocates forced abortions and a "planetary regime" to forcibly control population and of course Mr. Obama's legal advisor Harold Koh.

Koh, has spoken out in support of enacting sharia law in the United States and regularly discounts the concept of the US Constitution as the supreme law of the land. His preference is for global, or transnational arrangements. Mr. Koh authored the still-confidential legal advice the Obama administration has used to brand the constitutional removal of Honduras's Chavezista president "a coup".

Of course, we can't leave out Valerie Jarret, who's father Vernon, was a die-hard communist in the Chicago Communist Party.

She’s {Valerie Jarret} always been the other side of Barack’s brain.” That’s how an Obama insider described Valerie Jarrett...Today Valerie Jarrett serves as one of three Senior Advisors to President Obama. She is Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, and Chairs the White House Commission on Women and Girls...Frank Marshall Davis works closely in communist causes with Vernon Jarrett in Chicago. Davis moves to hawaii where he eventually meets and mentors a young Barack Obama. Then Obama moves to Chicago where his career is promoted by both Davis's old colleague Vernon Jarrett and the Communist Party. Vernon Jarrett's daughter-in-law employs Barack Obama's fiance, befriends the family and becomes one of President Obama's most trusted advisers. The Communist Party throws its entire weight behind Obama's presidential campaign.

See Newzeal.blogspot.com for an genuinely in depth vetting of Mr. Obama's closest advisors. http://newzeal.blogspot.com/2009/06/obama-file-78-smoking-gun-proof-that.html

These then are Mr. Obama's closest friends and advisors, yet, Major Media stil refuses to vet Mr. Obama, or his associates. Can we as a country afford to continue allow these kinds of advisers to continue. Especially if they despise what America stands for...can we?
