[...] How is it even possible that Janeane Garofalo gets asked questions concerning politics? Olberman is pathetic, but Garofalo is a not just a moron … she’s a complete lunatic too! [...]

And when she said that the women who listen to Rush are the kind who are attracted to prisoners, I couldn’t help but look at her and everything she was wearing and think “Damn, looks like you’re just the type”

I like how Boortz phrased it: At least we don’t have to say “Shame such a beautiful woman is so stupid”

I guess it’s my “limbic brain that wants to bitch slap this dope. But then those pesky “traditional values” kick in and tell me that would be a bad thing. Not easy being a grown up Janie.

And Bob…I’m so shocked to find out you’re a white supremacist…the things one learns on the internet!

(I’m so glad y’all are here…some days I think my head will explode listening to this twisted stuff.)

Perhaps someone should forward Fox’s ratings numbers to Ms. Garafalo (see FNC Ratings Surge 4/16/09) as she seems so concerned as to Fox News ability to survive having only a mentally deranged audience as a following.

Why are we listening at all to a comedian’s political analysis? Would we go to a plumber for surgery? Would we hire a street sweeper to teach our kids, or an interior decorator to represent us in court?

I think she is channeling Margot Kidder. No, really, is there anyone as idiotic as this women? Alec Baldwin looks like a conservative sage in comparision. Even if I was a liberal, my eyes would be rolling at this woman. When did she become an expert on what a black man/woman needs to think or be? The problem with so many white liberals, especially the bat s**t crazy ones like JC, is deep down, they are the racists. Why else are would you scream so hard about white racism? I have not heard a black guest on any political show scream about the tea party like this. If you were to get to know her and find out the types of people she calls friends, I really wonder how “diversified” she would be.

Don’t you love to be lectured on being black,Bob? Especially from a tatooed, over-the-hill , talentless, humorless schill like Garafolo? Maher drives me nuts, too, but he does throw an occasional line that is funny. I guess Michael Steele, Larry Elder, Thomas Sowell, and all other black conservatives need to be “checked out” by Sybil’s cousin here. My wish is for her to debate a conservative on national television primetime. You know what cockroaches do when they turn out the light. Imagine what Ann Coulter would do to her. They would have to take her to the Asylum afterwards. Come to think of it, that is where she belongs now!

Get used to being called racist, or, if you are a black American and actually think and do for yourself, called an “Uncle Tom” (which in and of itself is a completely racist term).

Tiny minds wield those terms like a weapon AND a shield. People that can’t think for themselves flock to that term and are ready to tear you down and join in the chant and the violence and the hate towards the person so labeled.

“If we don’t like them, or what they have to say, we’ll just call them a racist”. It’s one of the first, and most predictable, things they pull out of their playbook.

In 1994 when the Republicans won control of the House and Senate for the first time in 40 years, the left was demanding we went slow. Don’t implement all of those conservative reforms too quickly. The American people aren’t used to change. Now that their guy, Barack Obama, has made so many drastic changes in such a short amount of time, conservatives are just supposed to shut the fuck up because Janeane Garofalo says so?

No, it’s because Republicans are Wrong, but Democrats are Right. Clearly you’re too stupid and blinded by the Republican lies to see this.

/ugh, need brain bleach again for trying to channel a liberal.

I’m speechless! About halfway through, I was so irate I was afraid I was going to have to be cleaning brain matter off my screen. Miss Garafolo’s armchair psychology was being ingested by Olberman’s “fans” and, mindless sheep that they are, was proabaly being taken for fact. I need a half-bottle of aspirin.
