Janeane Garofalo should be the last person to be denigrating anyone. She tries to come off as this pseudo-intellectual, probably one who mocked President Bush’s mangled pronunciation of the word “nuclear”, while still mispronouncing “Rush Limbow” herself.

Her latest mission is to defend someone she clearly deems an inferior (despite the obvious power of his office), Barack Obama.

It’s obvious to anybody who has eyes in this country that tea-baggers, the 9-12ers, these separatist groups that pretend that it’s about policy – they are clearly white-identity movements. They’re clearly white power movements. What they don’t like about the President is that he’s black – or half black (applause) – and they, what also is shocking is that people keep pretending that that’s not really the case with these people.

What’s clearly not obvious to anybody who has eyes in this country is that Garofalo lives (when it comes to racists) in a very big glass house.

Let me tell you a little story.

A few years ago while networking in Los Angeles, I met a black man who worked at an industry post production facility in Hollywood. On an almost daily basis, he found racist pictures taped to the door of his work area. He didn’t know who the person was who left those pictures, but it was clear he was annoyed by the fact that any one of the co-workers he associated with who smiled to his face, could have been the person who looked at him with hate.

His problem was this: he could make a complaint with management. Under normal circumstances, that’s all it would take to get to the bottom of this. But we’re talking Hollywood.

Whomever it was leaving those pictures had no fear of being caught or of retribution. The act so dictates. Had this black man had the “wrong person” reprimanded or fired, that’s where the fun begins in Hollywood. The person issuing the complaint would be gray-listed. From then on, any place he sought work would know in advance he could be a “problem”, and he’d probably not get the job. Thus you have an atmosphere where racist and sexist behavior occurs frequently, as the victim stands more to lose than the asshole harasser.

Hollywood racism is as blatant as that on the inside.

A couple of quick examples come to mind.

When black O.J. Simpson was accused of killing his wife, white Hollywood shunned him. When white Roman Polanski was found guilty of drugging, raping, and sodomizing a little girl, white Hollywood circled the wagons.

Notice how two of the more recent widely successful shows were all white, Janeane? None of the “Friends” were black, and Seinfeld’s lead ensemble were all white. Black people get “Cribs” and “pimp” rides. “Laguna Beach” rich kids are worth watching, a reality show in The Hood may be too much information, and who would even think of green-lighting anything involving a no-talent, black-Paris Hilton-type. (There are black “princesses” in Hollywood.)

During the presidential campaign, Hollywood did everything possible to show solidarity behind Barack Obama. During his college years, I doubt few in the industry would allow their daughter to date someone with his tint and odd-sounding name, but as he could potentially have more power than them, industry elites had to temporarily shelve they’re superiority complexes and closet intolerance to support the black guy. Their publicists also liked and could work with that.

For years now I contend that white liberals consider black people their pets, and Janeane Garofalo is no different. But using race as the basis for her argument, especially being a “comedian” who based on her body of work would stay unemployed if she were black, is clearly being done for her own sense of relevance.

Oh, and besides looking at black people as pets, liberals love to use them as well, as reflected with the many actresses who just have to adopt a minority baby as an I’m-better-than-you accessory.

Would white Hollywood EVER show constant depictions of their children as gangsta’ thugs and their women as hos? We always hear different liberal groups get all bent over Playmates or Hooter girls, but when was the last time an industry bigwig ever condemned the slutting of black women in entertainment? I’ve mentioned before the Hollywood exec preference for light-skinned black women, as they’re the ones who get most of the gigs. But has Janeane Garofalo ever asked why black people are presented to the world in such a demeaning way?

Probably not, because that’s probably how she sees blacks. Now that an Affirmative Action candidate has gotten the top job, she sees any resistance to Barack Obama as an opportunity to rescue and take him to a shelter for mistreated animals.

Like most liberals, she is gutless and seldom (I can’t think of a recent exception) goes on a venue with equal sides of a debate and participate. She prefers shows like Bill Maher and Keith Olbermann where she can spew unchallenged.

She calls tea party protesters racist teabaggers. If that’s the case, Janeane Garofalo is a Hollywood racist. While the 9/12 crowd protests the president, many liberals in Hollywood still have no problem in harassing and denigrating black people, and do so with impunity.

When she says, “Fox News is happy to feed into this; AM radio is happy to feed into this,” including “this tacit nudging towards violence”, Hollywood enables and promotes racism and Garofalo by not speaking out, must be happy to feed into this. Hollywood magnifies the worse in minorities and claim they’re keeping it real Marlon Brando was right when he inadvertently hit liberal Hollywood right between the eyes. I would just substitute the word “Jews” with liberals.

Hollywood is run by liberals. It is owned by liberals, and they should have a greater sensitivity. They should have greater sensitivity about the issue of people who are suffering because they’ve (been) exploited. We have seen the nigger, we’ve seen the greaseball, we have seen the chink, the slit-eyed dangerous Jap. We have seen the wily Filipino. We’ve seen everything, but we never saw the ultra-liberal, because they know perfectly well that is where you draw the wagons around.

Janeane Garofalo, in that quest for relevance, is exploiting Barack Obama, and as she’s using race as her basis, is a racist herself. Until she addresses the racist cesspool she freely associates with, she has no business calling any law-abiding citizen who wishes to protest the direction a president is taking the country a racist: something she clearly is herself.
