Janeane Garofalo
Naked Gay Burning the Flag Choke Her up With Pride
From a 1998 interview in the now-folded Buzz magazine:
"Our country is founded on a sham: our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.' That you can have a gay parade on Christopher Street in New York, with naked men and women on a float cheering, 'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride."

Dozens of Countries With the U.S. is Not Unilateral—Look it Up, Janeane

Maybe she Just Refuses to Believe Facts She Doesn’t Like
“If I am uninformed, which I'd like to think I work very hard not to be, uninformed, it is the fault of the White House and the mainstream media. We don't get enough information. We don't get enough news with our news. And how can we function as a democracy without information? We are given disinformation and White House propaganda all the time. We have no history to our news, no context to our news, no global perspective. We don't see people outside our borders as humans. And if I am uninformed, which I'd like to think I work very hard not to be, uninformed, it is the fault of the White House and the mainstream media.”

In Denial
'Well, we know Saddam has weapons of mass destruction.’ No, we don't. We do not. We do not know that.”

What Planet, Again?
“They [network news] tend to marginalize it [anti-war protests] by only interviewing the guy dressed as a carrot on stilts or Wavy Gravy. You know what I mean? Like some guy with no teeth and a tie-dyed Grateful Dead shirt, because they want to marginalize it.”

The World Was Better When the U.S.S.R, Was a Superpower
"The world would be better off with multiple superpowers."
"Sure [our enemies should be more powerful], when Communist U.S.S.R. was a superpower, the world was better off. The right-wing media is trying to marginalize the peace movement."

She's Got all the Facts
"This [Iraq] is a manufactured conflict for the sake of geopolitical dominance in the area."
"There is no evidence of weapons of mass destruction. You never even get that idea floated in the mainstream media. If you bring it up, they hate the messenger. You've ruined everyone's good time."

You must not be an advide reader of Freerepublic.com, You stupid b*tch!
What excactly does she do, besides showing her stupidity.

| Sure, she's politically misguided, but she can bowl with uncanny accuracy! |
I think that was the interview where Brian Kilmeade completely ripped her to shreds. She said she knows what's really going on because she watches satellite TV and Kilmeade shot back at her, "Have you been watching Al Jazeera?" She didn't deny it! You might still be able to see the video on foxnews.com.
And from what I have read thus far, I am not sure I want to know either. As I am insulted enough as it is..
I swear, it's like some kind of mental problem.
Hi Janeane. Welcome to Free Republic.
I think you are pretty cute, but hopelessly uninformed.
BTW, I thought you were the cuter one in "The Truth About Cats and Dogs."
Well, since her entire schtick is nothing but idiocy, you can see how we'd make that mistake.
And you registered today just to post this gem?
Izzat you, GawdawfulHo?
So, let's send her to some muslim country to live and see how she likes it.
We got a live one, Meekie!
