The lovely and gracious Janeane Garafalo has favored us with another of her sophisticated comments.
We don’t want to imply that the former Air America shrew’s career is in the dumper, but she did an interview with an “environmental celebrity blog.” Good lord, Janeane, that’s one step below talking to IHateTheMedia.com.
“The reason a person is a conservative republican is because something is wrong with them. Again, that’s science – that’s neuroscience. You cannot be well adjusted, open-minded, pluralistic, enlightened and be a republican. It’s counter-intuitive. And they revel in their anti-intellectualism. They revel in their cruelty.”
“…First you have to be an a**hole and then comes the conservatism. You gotta be a d*** to cleave onto their ideology…”
“I really believe that if a neuroscientist examined the brain of somebody who identified as a conservative, they would find it’s wired differently.”
One can only hope, Janeane. One can only hope.

That's because "conservatism" has lost its way, intellectually. As, for that matter, has "liberalism."
Both sides have essentially given up reasoned discourse, and now rely on the sort of poop-throwing that had previously been confined to the monkey house of the local zoo. Just look at the idiocy of the recent election -- both sides playing to the media tune of sound bites and "gotchas," and the American public willing to go along with it.
As long as things were comfortable we could get away with that sort of silliness -- although that same comfort was bound to bring us to our current unpleasant position of impending financial collapse and intractable foreign difficulties.
Perhaps some good, serious crises are just what we need to jolt us into finally clearing away the clutter and idiocy that has built up over the past 20-30 years.
Where’s the Malignant Skank Alert?

What’s humorous is that both Garafalo and Andy Dick (and Bob Oudenkirk) were on the short-lived Ben Stiller Show on Fox in the early 1990’s. They were hilarious, but when the series got cancelled, everything I saw with either of them was horrible.
She does not love herself.
Isn't that the same thing that some people say about lesbians, that they are just wired differently?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

What did you say? I can barely watch 24 because of her.
“especially television featuring putrid herpes-carrying skanks who hate me and my country.”
Skanks with tattoos are particularly repulsive. She probably thinks the glasses make her look intelligent, she’s evidently as dumb as a bag of hammers!
Actually, I once went out with a woman that looked just like Janene Garafalo. She was an alcoholic nutcase. I’m glad I’m rid of her because all she pretty much does is drink and leech off of her parents.
