Anita: Dunnzo

More time with the family            (ap)

Anita Dunn, the White House communications director who famously kicked up the recent unpleasantness with Fox News, is stepping down at the end of the month.

Dunn had taken the job on an interim basis and had been planning to leave at the end of the summer, the NYT reminds us. She is going back to her own PR shop, Squier Knapp Dunn, the Washington Post says.

Communications director is already possibly the most snake-bit job in the Obama administration. Dunn predecessor Ellen Moran lasted just a few months before departing for the Commerce Department. Dunn is expected to be replaced by her deputy, Dan Pfeiffer.

I'll miss Ms. Dunn. She seemed like such a sweet lady. Maybe she can get a job at media matters. Then, she can sit at home and bash FNC from her bedroom. Peanut butter & Jelly.

In praise of MASS MURDERER Chairman Mao:

"The third lesson and tip actually comes from two of MY FAVORITE political philosophers, MAO TSE TUNG and Mother Teresa. Not often coupled with each other, but the two people that I TURN TO MOST to basically deliver a simple point, which is: You're going to make choices. ... But here's the deal: These are your choices; they are no one else's."

--June 2009, quote from Anita Dunn, hussein's Czar for Attacking Fox News And Anybody Else Who Tells The Truth About The Loony-Left D-crat Socialists.

GOOD RIDDANCE TO THIS MARXIST.
