She was a regular on Larry Sanders from 92-97, and she starred with Uma Thurman in The Truth About Cats and Dogs, which was a huge summer hit in 1996. When she claims nobody knew who she was in 1998, she knows that she has been caught lying about protesting the military actions of Bill Clinton. So, taking a cue from her hero, she lies some more to cover her ass. Janeane Garofolo is repulsive. She was much more popular in 1998 than she is today. Same goes for Susan Sarandon AND Sean Penn.
