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.”

Who cares what this never-has-been says? The best she could ever manage as an actress was minor roles in minor movies. And her rantings on Air America were one reason no one listened to the station. She’s irrelevant.

Nope, I won’t watch 24 anymore either. I will not watch or suppoet anything with someone like this in the cast. I miss a lot of good “events” with this attitude, but my fishing skills are increasing daily. Goodbye 24. Hello black bass.

Because the liberals like Janeane are so ill informed, she has openly revealed the truth about the liberals. When she said: “... they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don’t know their history at all.”, she was really telling on herself.

The reason I say this is because Charles Krauthammer has already explained how the liberals operate - it’s called “projection” - the liberals always complain about the conservatives believe, when in reality the liberals are telling us what they believe.

What Janeane really said, WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE BOSTON TEA PARTY WAS ALL ABOUT, AND WE DON’T KNOW AMERICAN HISTORY AT ALL.

Just another liberal with a mental disorder.

You're being redundant. That's like saying a fish is wet.

Her utterances are a Special Olympics joke.

Janeane Garofalo - just another reason why we need to win the War on Drugs.

I concur. (Watch the movie “Catch Me If You Can” for a hilarious scene utilizing the word “concur”, btw)

Hmm, Janeane:
* never, even in her “Prime”, considered attractive
* not aging very well (understatement)
* almost zero talent
and now....
* add brain dead, mean and repulsive to the mix

“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.”

Agreed! “Black” doesn’t bother me at all. Communist Red, however, DOES bother me!

Read the Orange County Register today. There were three or four letters to the Editor that spewed the same garbage. When I got to the last one that used the Racism and Jealousy (I kid you not) line, I just about blew a gasket.

I wrote my own letter and sent it off. I didn't follow my rule of putting something I write in my Draft file and reviewing it before I send it. I doubt they will print it, but you never know. The more I think of it, I should have just said these idiots prove what my Tagline says.

What amazes me is that we have these idiots in good old “conservative” Orange County. Looks like the whiners have infiltrated one of the last sane areas in California. I'm sure these idiotic letters are still on the Ocregister.com web site if you need a laugh, or a seizure.

I attended the Plano (Texas) tea party... I'm originally from White Plains, NY. I wouldn't call myself a "redneck"... I am a Texas A&M Aggie Former Student though ;-)

A "right wing extremist?" ... I'll wear that as a badge of honor.

Garofalo... go eat cake fool.
