Janeane Garofalo says tea parties were for rednecks
Christian Science Monitor ^ | 04.17.09 | Jimmy Orr

"Hey, if you participated in one of the 700+ “tea parties” held across the nation on April 15th, guess what?

Actress and former comedienne Janeane Garofalo doesn’t like you.

Garofalo appeared on Keith Olbermann’s show Thursday night, and with guns a blazing she condemned anyone who participated in the tax and spend protests on tax day.

“Let’s be very honest about what this is about,” she said. “It’s 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. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. That is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks.”

I would venture to say that my 13 y/o, 14 lb. cat Moose has more common sense in his hind foot than Janeane Garofalo has in her entire brain. Do you concur?

She's only got 2 working brain cells left.

And they hate each other.

Failed comedienne; failed actress; failed radio talk show host; failed human being. And she’s taking all her anger and bitterness out on America and those who love America.

note how much like many freepers she thinks deriding whites with stereotypes is A-OK but God forbis one says even something factual yet damaging about the vaunted NEGRO or LATINO

The Hammer, Charles Krauthammer, had it right today.

He said Janeane Garofalo is beneath contempt and clueless.

Let’s hope we can add “failed FBI analyst” to that list, because I’m thinking if Chloe gets anywhere near Janet, she’s going to kick her ass.

I think that rednecks usually live in small towns or rural areas. I went to a tea party in Chicago, which has almost 3 million people, and the party had about 3,000 people.

“it’s not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don’t know their history at all. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. That is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks.”

An ignorant, unfunny comedian and an over medicated, psychotic newsreader/media personality talk about honest, patriotic Americans and call them racist and dumb. Listening to Garofalo and Olberman insult good people like this while they slobber over every corrupt Democrat spendaholic in Washington makes me sick.

I'd really like to hear Ms. Garofalo’s version of the Boston Tea Party.

And it isn't about bashing a black man in the white house either...it's about protesting the policies of a man who is a marxist (and probably a muslim usurper), who just happens to be black. If that makes us racist rednecks, then so be it.

“...She’s a great American!”

Ditto that. Someone who has the courage to stand up and speak the truth.

I thank this fine lady !
