Garofolo - Tea Parties: 'You're all RACIST, RACIST, RACIST'

A perfect consonant fit with the public attempts by this administration to cast all criticism and dissent as extremism
Wash Times:

Liberal actress and political activist Janeane Garofalo, in all seriousness, said activists who attended tea parties are racists with dysfunctional brains in a recent prime-time television appearance.

"Let's be very honest about what this is about. This is not about bashing Democrats. It's not about taxes. They have no idea what the Boston Tea party was about. They don't know their history at all. It's about hating a black man in the White House," she said on MSNBC's "The Countdown" with Keith Olbermann Thursday evening. "This is racism straight up and is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. There is no way around that."

Olbermann did not once try to challenge her on those assertions.

The actress went on to describe the brain size of typical "right-winger, Republican or conservative or your average white power activist."

"Their synapses are misfiring. ... It is a neurological problem we are dealing with," she said. This isn't the first time she's offered this analysis, either. Ms. Garofalo said similar things about Alaskan GOP Governor Sarah Palin's brain last February in an interview with an environmental blog.

The actress went on to bash the GOP on MSNBC Thursday because it had "crystallized into the white power movement" as well as Fox News, which she said has captured the "Klan demo[graphic]."

"Who else is Fox talking to? Urban older white guys and their girlfriends who suffer from Stockholm Syndrome," she said.

The model citizen, for tolerance, the Obama way.

NONE

Any chance we could rophie that malevolent midget and pass her off as a child bride to some 80 year old goat-humping geezer in Yemen?

Just kidding, Janet...

Btw, we got Ben Affleck and Tommy Lee Jones coming to town Monday to film some movie scene over by the harbor. Anyone got any messages I can relay to those guys?

Note to Garofalo: Continue to visualize us ignoring you!

I just love it when someone calls me racist. I get to tell my kids and grandkids and they just crack up laughing.

On top of that, I wonder what the black republican's response is to these accusations. :)

Christine,
I think most of the people here are not aware of what your family looks like.

I always bring mine up, ad nauseum, because of this kind of Garofalo shit.

When I heard this on the radio I almost pinched myself to see if I were dreaming. Not because I don't think she or others would think these things but because she actually spoke the words and MEANT them. I watched the video and there she was completely serious about her obscene accusations. She's apparently completely insane!

No Bug, she is typical.

The dialectic is that if you oppose Obama you oppose social and economic justice ... and to most over there therefore, racist. And therefore evil. And therefore a redneck.

I have to go now and shave my head, and buy some 3 tons of ammonium nitrate, and wait to be recruited by a christian identity organization which tolerates right wing extremist neocon jews (sorry that's repetitive, isn't it).

Does anyone out there think the other side is thinking about where this will all lead?

They are, day by day, with the kind of words they are using, and the attempt to make american opposition and dissent evil as a compulsory result of differing, creating a demonization of anyone to their right and destroying any chance there can be a civil solution .. a domestic Huntington.

I haven't seen anything worthwhile from her since that stellar performance in Team America. But her Dead Traitor Big Pin is probably worth the four bucks.
