Garofalo Trashes ‘Tea-Baggers’ as ‘White Power Movement’ Led By Limbaugh, Beck...

I thought Limbaugh and Garofalo were pretty tight.

IMHO, you should not have posted this. Anything featuring Garofalo is a waste of FReepers’ time and Jim Rob’s bandwidth.

What would you expect from a mean two-bagger like Barfalo.

Is this lady getting Mr. Garafolo’s buy-in before acting like dumbed-down version of Tokyo Rose in public?

Maher has no countering, competing conservative program. If he did, I suspect the low appeal of his program would be very apparent. He is reason number 1 I do not have HBO.

Garafalo, Maher, Moore, and other hard left celebrities live in small worlds of sycophantic like-minded leftists. All three fit in with Manhattan society but there are few other places they would feel comfortable.

Remember, when you see these people, they are the face of the opposition. As long as they stay in their small worlds and I don’t have to interact with them, they and I can coexist. When they push legislation that harms me, my family, and America, then they overstep their bounds and need to return to their small world.

Unlike her and those like her I do not need to be “led.” I am an intelligent being and can make relevant decisions for myself. She is the perfect example of the education system failing society.

I think that they are, by definition, LIBERALS.

I think that there’s a bit of human nature which draws us to look at train wrecks.

Response: These leftists have screamed "Racist" for so long the term is losing its sting

It is always good to remember those lessons taught as a child.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf

There once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep. To amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out, "Wolf! Wolf! The Wolf is chasing the sheep!"

The villagers came running up the hill to help the boy drive the wolf away. But when they arrived at the top of the hill, they found no wolf. The boy laughed at the sight of their angry faces.

"Don't cry 'wolf', shepherd boy," said the villagers, "when there's no wolf!" They went grumbling back down the hill.

Later, the boy sang out again, "Wolf! Wolf! The wolf is chasing the sheep!" To his naughty delight, he watched the villagers run up the hill to help him drive the wolf away.

When the villagers saw no wolf they sternly said, "Save your frightened song for when there is really something wrong! Don't cry 'wolf' when there is NO wolf!"

But the boy just grinned and watched them go grumbling down the hill once more.

Later, he saw a REAL wolf prowling about his flock. Alarmed, he leaped to his feet and sang out as loudly as he could, "Wolf! Wolf!"

But the villagers thought he was trying to fool them again, and so they didn't come.

At sunset, everyone wondered why the shepherd boy hadn't returned to the village with their sheep. They went up the hill to find the boy. They found him weeping.

"There really was a wolf here! The flock has scattered! I cried out, "Wolf!" Why didn't you come?"

An old man tried to comfort the boy as they walked back to the village.

"We'll help you look for the lost sheep in the morning," he said, putting his arm around the youth, "Nobody believes a liar...even when he is telling the truth!"

back home forward

She’s been on Letterman a few times, I bet she was a double bagger for him.

I wonder what Garofalo’s “gay” friends think of her insulting Republicans by referring to them as “tea-baggers”. It would seem as though her ditzyness would be getting under their skin by now.

It is interesting that the Dems regularly demean blacks and gays, yet both groups continue to dance like marionettes for the Dems. I think that both groups demean themselves beyond anything the Dems could say or do, by their slavish devotion to those that regularly insult them.

Carter: "black boy"
Byrd: KKK and "white ni**er"
Clinton: "black people are just like normal people"

One has to wonder. Is there any level of condescension and demeaning that these people won't cheerfully accept from the Dems? Indeed, more than acceptance, but eagerly lap up?

Clinton: “black people are just like normal people”

Do you have any kind of source on when and where he said THAT?? If a Republican politician said anything remotely resembling it, he’d be living on the streets within 72 hours.....

Garofalo Stands By ‘Racist’ Remarks
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
JENKINS: Well, it certainly surprises me. I mean, look, the host just says oh OK, yes, they’re all racist, about hating a black man, let’s just move on. What? Are you kidding me? And then there no follow-up from any other representative from that network or another one.

So I think it was very legitimate to go and ask her about it. Now let me just tell you, I don’t go on the air and call a woman bitter because I’m not sure that that’s nice and that’s not the way my mom and dad raised me. But I watched her more than 50 minutes comedy show which was about anti-religion, anti-marriage, anti-children.

She’s mad about things. She’s pessimistic. She has serious issues, in my opinion. She came out with her hair kind of cut and she said she was so nervous that tea party protesters were going to disrupt her comedy routine that she cut chunks out of her hair.

I don’t understand it. It’s like I wanted to just say be happy. Sean, she started the show with this quote, “If there’s any tea baggers here, welcome, and as always, white power.”

It’s unbelievable that she would do that.

HANNITY: I have some experience. I actually went over to a radio studio once and I tried to be on a radio show, have a civil discussion. I mean it seems that this is very characteristic of the left. She spent most of the time, in the breaks, you know, on the floor petting her dog and laying next to her dog.

I mean it’s just bizarre. But I see this with Bill Maher, for example. Bill Maher has become an angry, bitter guy. You know we saw this in these comments that we’re just discussing, you know, with Wanda Sykes over the weekend. We see this with Garofalo.

If Republicans or conservatives ever used the same type of humor or language there’ll be calls immediately to have them removed from the airwaves. So that’s where the double standard lies, right?

JENKINS: Well, it certainly seems so to me. Why is she or any other liberal so mad? I mean, look, I’m fair and balanced.

HANNITY: That’s a good point.

Garafalo sees racism in the “tea-baggers” who have no specific racial mandate at all, but doesn’t see racism or supremacist intent in Black Nationalist movements like Obama was a part of for 20 years, nor in separatist supremacist racially pure groups like the Black Panthers, Congressional Black Caucus, etc.

Great reminder that black people are getting fed up as well. Tired of being used I guess.

Her comments about a man showing up with a gun at an Obama speech went uncontested as they always do. When will they tell the whole story...that that man they speak of was BLACK!???....

Garofalo is a liberal skank who is a total waste of human flesh...

I understand the exorcists are good at casting out demons and curing homosexuality.

I wonder if they can do it "long distance"?

I’d like to see the Big Guy teabag Janeane. Well, not so much teabag her strictly as just sit on her head and squash it.

I saw him say it on, I believe it was, an MTV interview. Yeah, I saw it, he said it. My liberal friends totally down played it when I asked them if they would stand for a Republican saying it. Oh, it's no big deal, he didn't mean it that way. Blah, blah, blah.

I haven't been able to find a video of it, but I remember it. Maybe someone else here remembers it and can help find the documentation.
