Janeane Garofalo: Racist, Sexist or Just Plain Idiot?
www.mymediumrare.com ^ | 08/13/09 | Mike Rarey

By now most everyone is aware of the comments Ms. Garofalo made regarding those Americans that are fed up with taxes, government waste, intrusions into privacy and are uniting against the bailouts and Barack Obama’s health care scheme. She feels in her infinite wisdom that if you are opposed to Obama’s policies, it’s because you’re racist.

I’m not afraid of being called a racist. Those who don’t know me have called me many things over the course of my life. Being called a name doesn’t make it true. And I’m not some thin-skinned twit that lets words and vapid arguments get to me. But I thought it might be somewhat educational, as well as entertaining, to delve into the twisted logic that liberals such as Ms. Garofalo use in order to come up with these inane conclusions and spew those stupid comments.

First let’s get one thing established and out of the way. Liberalism and the support of socialistic and fascist ideals is not something that is inherently black. If it were, then Hitler would have necessarily been a black man. The same would have to be true with Stalin and Mao. Furthermore, all blacks would have to adhere to those principles. Likewise, all whites would have to be against them. Only then it could seriously be referred to as a racial disagreement. I know this is being somewhat simplistic, but if I get too intellectual about it any liberals reading this would get lost.

Under Janeane Garofalo’s logic, in order for her to agree with Barack Obama she needs to be black herself. The only other logical conclusion following this path is that she actually disagrees with Barack Obama and is therefore a racist, but is just too afraid to come out and admit it. Additionally, any blacks that disagree with a white man are by definition racists. At this point we run into the problem of what to do with the blacks that don’t agree with other blacks, or the whites that don’t agree with other whites.

When you look at the disagreements she had with George W. Bush, and things she called him, since they are both white it obviously couldn’t have been because of racism. It would have had to been due to sexism on her part. But we still have that annoying issue with not all women thinking the same, or all men having identical ideals.

Here comes the great liberal answer to those pesky situations. Blacks that don’t agree with liberal philosophies are not really black. Apparently white men and women that disagree are also not really white, or female I would have to assume. What passes for liberal logic tends to vaporize when truth is introduced. So what we’re left with is what conservatives knew all along. The debate is about ideologies, not race or gender. Unfortunately for liberals, their ideology is based on emotion, not thought, therefore they can’t win honest debates of ideas. That is why they concocted this fanciful rant about who is or isn’t true to their race based on the individual’s opinion.

Ms. Garofalo has also made a statement opining that black republicans must suffer from the Stockholm Syndrome, inferring that they have developed a loyalty to their captor, the Republican Party. Ms. Garofalo cannot make that statement and be considered a true student of history. If any party is holding black Americans hostage, it’s the Democrats. It was the Republicans that led the charge on abolishing slavery and establishing civil rights for African-Americans. The Democrats fought to keep slavery legal and battled against every civil rights bill presented until President Johnson persuaded his party to go along with the Republicans on civil rights. Even then the southern Democrats tried to filibuster the legislation. The party as a whole has been trying to keep the blacks on the plantation ever since.

So we’re left with the original question asked in the title of this article. Is Janeane Garofalo a racist, sexist or just an idiot? She agrees with some of the black population so she isn’t racist. She agrees with a portion of the male population, so she isn’t a sexist. Logically speaking, in the end we must conclude that Janeane Garofalo is apparently is just another left wing, liberal idiot.

I’d be embarrassed, not just for the lousy photochop but for suggesting Rush did it because he was drunk.

There is CLEARLY not enough alcohol in the known universe...

She always looks so dirty. Dumpster diving? Lolling around in dustbins? Reclining in a crack house or ‘shooting gallery’ for a couple of weeks without a shower or change of clothes?

In Garofalo’s every thinks and act all the same.

The folk singer/writer Pete Seeger and hero of the Left had song admonishing conformity, tittled “Little Boxes.”

The chorus goes something like: “And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all just the same.” So I guess things have changed since the 1960's. All good Americans need to be all made out of ticky tacky, all just the same.

First line should have read: “In Garofalo’s world, everybody think and act all the same.”

LOL! Pesonally, I could *maybe* force enough alcohol down to lean in that close and *puke* on her, but that’s about the extent of it.

The term "racism" is a Marxist invention. When Whites engage in favoritism toward other Whites (and therefore discrimination against non-whites), it’s called “racism”. When other groups engage in favoritism, it’s called “ethnic solidarity”. When Whites object to Jewish favoritism, it’s called “anti-semitism”. When you buy into these word games, it’s called being a useful idiot.

Once you strip away the bluster and fame I doubt there’s a whole lot of self-respect hiding out underneath that polka-dot headband...

You know, that’s really gross.

(If you got too close she could touch you and then you’d have to get a series of rabies shots, penicillin, and probably a cootie-shot for good measure.)
