If you’re an African-American and don’t think the way Janeane Garofalo insists you must, then you are clearly corrupt or mentally ill. This is precisely what she said about Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain, on a recent appearance on Al Gore’s Current TV network. On Keith Olbermann’s new show, Garofalo insisted that Cain must have been paid off or “has a touch of Stockholm Syndrome“. More here.
Pause for a moment to consider what reaction there’d be if Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann or Stephen Harper said the following:
“If _________* don’t support conservative principles then they must be getting paid off by someone or are mentally ill.”
Note: * = Asians, Blacks, Latinos, Quebecers, or Jews.
Do you think the MSM footsoldiers of Obama (or the Liberal Party of Canada) would remain silent then? Doubtful.
P.S. In a related narrative, just over 2 years ago, Garofalo & Olbermann discussed Tea Party members.
Being black and conservative in America must be brutal. How many times, I wonder, has Thomas Sowell been called “Uncle Tom”?
Didn’t know just who this Janeane Garafalo woman was but seeing this, I have come to support the Tea Partiers a hell of a lot more. How did she get to be so bitter and when did her hate become so all consuming?
Does this idiotic dirtbag of a woman know how rich Herman Cain has managed to make himself? Does she think he needs to be bribed by Darth Rove to pretend to be a conservative?
I wish she’d bad-mouth Allen West. He’s quite the letter-writer. http://americanpowerblog.blogspot.com/2011/07/rep-allen-west-slams-rep-debbie.html
And how nice that Keefy Olberclownn is back. His 5 viewers must be thrilled, and his pets, if any, are probably glad to have him out of the house.
Those two deserve each other…they really do.
Is it me or does she resemble Heather Mallick.?And ohya Obledorf is a dork.
Garofalo is one of the more despicable pinheads to come out of Hollybarf – on a par with Michael Moore when it comes to sheer hypocrisy. Why anyone would want to broadcast, let alone listen to the uneducated political opinions of actors whose grasp of the real world is tenuous at best (and who are as much among the filthy rich aristocracy as the court at Versailles was pre-1789) is one of the clearest indications that the US is marching in lock-step towards Idiocracy.

“Those two deserve each other…they really do.”
I dunno Synchro… is even Janeane Garofalo, virulent, throbbing pustule of Leftist hate though she may be, truly deserving of [shudder] Keith Olbermann?
That’s a hard call my friend, a hard call.
larben – she’s a washed-up “Indy”-type actress who was widely considered fairly cute 15 years ago and once did an episode of Seinfeld. According to her own account when she gave up drinking she had a lot of free time on her hands so she started watching CNN, and she’s been calling everyone right of Castro a racist ever since. This keeps her in the periphery of the spotlight; she’d barely merit 20 minutes of Whatever happened to…? otherwise.
The Phantom
Naw…they deserve each other.
Synchro: Although she probably believes that she deserves better.
BARFUPOLLO IS A MUDFLAP.
I wonder what Garofalo thinks of Muslim women who support the right of their husbands to beat them?
I’ve long wondered if Janeane Garofalo has a disease or is a disease.
rebarbarian
natch.
Mike McCormick
both?
I didn’t think the gene pool got that shallow.
How is it physically possible to contain that much stupidity and hate in one room without a hazmat team? Nothing of substance said, just hate filled rhetoric. Keith Dohberman nodding like the bobble head he is. Sure, all lefties and democrats are above racism. Janeane and Keith sure showed us that was the truth,,,,NOT!
Janeane Garofalo is nobody of consequence and is not running for public office.
If Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann, Stephen Harper had said something similar it would be news.
If Garofalo ever does run for office this will come back to bite her.
(every time I hear the name ‘Garofalo’ it evokes the mental image of someone choking on their bile)
I remember seeing her in a movie a decade of so ago called ‘Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion’. My impression then was that she was not acting but rather playing her true character. I haven’t changed my opinion since. The role she played in the movie was a spiteful and hateful high school bully.
Time to remind ourselves yet again of some history.
Abraham Lincoln waged the Civil War against the South, to maintain
the Union; this necessarily involved freeing the slaves. Lincoln was
a Republican. He was opposed at every step by the Democrats,
the worst being the Copperheads (but all Dems were Copperhead sympathisers).
After the Civil War the South was solidly Democrat, and they
thwarted suffrage for the blacks for something like three
generations. To help with this they devised the KKK, to lynch
“uppity” blacks, and any Republican who ventured into the South.
Andrew Klavan handles this well, actually, but he misses a big
one. We all know the story of the desegregation of the
Little Rock Central High School in 1957. The Governor, the Democrat governor,
called out the Arkansas National Guard
to prevent the entry of nine black students. But then the
President, the Republican President, Dwight Eisenhower, ordered
in US Army troops (the 101st Airborn, possibly the best unit in the Army)
and nationalised all of the National Guard. And so Little Rock Central High School was integrated.
And so it goes. Republicans do the necessary, the Democrats oppose them, and then after the Republicans prevail the Dems claim credit for it.
It’s obscene.
I might wonder if Olby and co. are just trying too generate some hits and get a few more viewers, but in reality I don’t think either of those clowns are smart enough to think of that.
My god, what happened to her? She looks emaciated. I dimly remember catching one of her “comedy” routines years ago and she clearly had body image and weight issues; I have to wonder if she hasn’t done a 180 into borderline anorexia.
Janeane Garafalo is not just a stupid cow; she is paranoid.
Black Americans of any political stripe should band together and tell her to shut her fat yap. In fact, they should get off their duffs and stop waiting for white people or lame-duck presidents to fix their lot.
She’s projecting!
She admits…”Believe me, I know what I’m talking about when talking about self loathing.”
I had no idea who the heck she was and had never seen her before I watched the clip… I was better off before. What a despicable creature.
She had a one episode guest role on Two and a Half Men …. played a paranoid self loathing psychotic.

There is a fairly good correlation between Intelligence and Attractiveness.
She doesn’t realize she repels even non-rightwing viewers with her hatred. I hope for her sake she turns away from it.
Oberloon and Barfolo are voices barking at the shiny shiny moon on a cable access channel. Do you think for a second that they are going too change, challenge, or enlighten anyone with their thoughts?
Me, I want them to get so indignant that they call to action their 10’s of watchers.
ho hum, another celebrity I am boycotting. Have boycotted her for quite some time, in fact….it’s actually quite easy to boycott her, she’s not in anything anyway!
Ugly with big glasses means you’re smart, see.”All black people are the same and they’re defined and categorized politically by their blackness furthermore they can not think for themselves, nor be a leader, because they’re black”
Jeneane Giraffehello
Who is this woman and why does anyone care what she says?
What a pathetic self-loathing little racist loser.
The ugly lesbian in pink shirt was even more disgusting.
She and her group cannot stand Herman Cain, because his very existence gives the lie to all they stand for. Herman Cain is a self made story of success, proving that he did not need to waste his time wallowing in victimhood. He and all the other successful black Americans should be held up as role models for the black community instead of the usual race baiters.
Alain – what does that do for me?
I suppose she thinks she’s not a hater.
She was a 3rd rate comedian and a crappy actor that got very little work. The only thing she is famous for is what you see here. Not worth typing anything else…
I have no problem with Garofalo because she’s a nothin’ to whom no rational person would pay attention. Olbermann, on the other hand, is a really vile piece of dung – leading her on and tacitly agreeing with her most outrageous comments. Who in hell is he, and how did he ooze his way into TV punditry? (Yeh, maybe I should Google him).
