Garofalo: Tea Party Protesters 'Functionally Retarded Adults'; Says 'I Want My Country Back' Code for 'I Want My White Guy Back' By Jeff Poor Created 2009-08-22 16:53
You probably already knew Jeanane Garofalo was no fan of conservatives, Republicans or just about anything that could be described as right of center. But the former Air America host and MSNBC regular really has a low regard for conservative activists.
In an appearance at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. on Aug. 21 [1], Garofalo ripped into tea party protesters, or what some of the wizards of smart on the left have deemed "tea baggers" [2] calling them "functionally retarded adults" and "racists."
"Do you remember tea baggers?" Garofalo said. "It was just so much easier when we could just call them racists. I just don't know why we can't call them racists, or functionally retarded adults."
Garofalo has made prior overtures alleging any public display of discontent with the current president is nothing more than racial hatred. Back in April she called tea party protesters "a bunch of tea bagging rednecks" on MSNBC's "Countdown with Keith Olbermann." [2] However, she contended the public's frustration expressed over the direction of the country was code for racism.
"The functionally retarded adults, the racists - with their cries of, I want my country back,'" she said. "You know what they're really saying is, I want my white guy back.' They apparently had no problem at all for the last eight years of habeas corpus being suspended, the Constitution being [expletive] on, illegal surveillance, lied to on a war or two, two stolen elections - yes, the John Kerry one was stolen too. That's not tin-foil hat time. That's just..."
According to Garofalo, the media were the reason George W. Bush defeated both former Vice President Al Gore in 2000 and Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., in 2004 to hold on to the White House for eight years.
"Our media is quite happy to report on any stolen election around the world, any stolen election around the world except ours," Garofalo said. "And it's just unexamined narcissism. It's just, if you were to say this to the average American, You know they steal elections in Uganda.' Yeah.' You know they steal elections in America.' Why do you hate America?' Why didn't you ask me why do you hate Uganda?'"
And throughout Garofalo's stand-up routine, she reiterated her belief that the outrage over President Barack Obama's and the Democratic-controlled Congress' branded of domestic policy is veiled racism.
"This is neuroscience," Garofalo continued. "This is not politics, this is neuroscience. It is purely limbic brain activity - this emotion over being angry that there's a black guy in office, with the people showing up armed to the health care meetings - to whatever, the town halls. But it's just, and these tea baggers. It makes me soul sick."
This from: ‘Miss Tramp Stamps all over my Body’!
Oh yes! *You’re* so well adjusted...
Interesting case of libtard disorder!
I would be interested to see such a lunatic coward debating with a tough conservative...Usually they prefer to keep speaking alone
Garofalo makes toads look good.
She's a barely literate coke-whore who wouldn't even be publicly known if she wasn't so fond of facials... if you know what I mean. She looks like a rat on meth that got caught in a thunderstorm. Sooner or later she'll perform her opus and supposedly "come out of the closet."
I don't believe she's ever been photographed in public in the company of a guy. Hers is the mental infirmity that results from knowing you can never live up to your own self-image, and in fear of the public finding out, combined with the deep sexual frustration that eventually besets all lesbians who are too butt-ugly for any white guy to poke.
That she isn't seen on the arm of several black and hispanic dudes is proof of her own racism. As we know, the liberal mindset is to accuse your foe of your own most frequent transgressions.
She only fools herself, and then only until she goes to bed alone, night after night after night. Pathetic.

A Hygiene challenged adult.
She’s a walking yeast infection!
I’m not surprised she, or any liberal for that matter, would make race an issue. As I have stated a million times, race, gender, etc. doesn’t matter to me at all. I vote for the best candidate. I vote for conservatives. I would vote for anyone of any race, man or woman, if I thought he or she could save this country. Liberalism IS a mental disorder!
Barfalo is a alcoholic and it shows in her rapidly deteriorating physical apperance as the years go on. Combine that with pathological hatred and you end up with someone who’ll jump on every conspiracy theory bandwagon out there. Explains it all how she’s still whining about Bush stealing elections and labeling anyone that doesn’t agree with her as racists.
When someone calls themselves “Liberal” or “Progressive” what they’re really saying is that they are a red socialist son of a bitch who is too chicken to call themselves what they are.

And from where did Barfolo get her PhD in neuroscience. Oops, silly me, she’s a liberal, therefore she is an expert in everything even if she doesn’t know jack squat!
She's a dingy full of random information floating adrift on a vast sea of lack of perspective. One wonders if she'll ever catch sight of terra firma.
Actually, Ms Garofalo...I’m holding out for a white woman. I should probably use the term ‘lady’ as I wouldn’t want to leave the impression that I am referring to either you or Michael Moore.
This haggard walking-venereal-disease, this oozing pustulant shrieking harridan, this soulless parigon of pure evil who’s dripping and corroded vagina causes terror-alerts when she enters a state.... has anything to say?
one “functionally retarded adult” here to make your soul sick, My next move will be to steal more elections, so stay tuned sweetie.
