Kook Actress Garofalo: Tea Parties Were About Hating the Black Man

You may have missed this.

It was on Keith Olbermann's show.

Actress Janeane Garofalo said the Tax Day Tea Party protests were really about hating the black man in the White House.

How original. The 8 minute long hate-filled rant is Here.

The Washington Times reported:

Liberal actress and political activist Janeane Garofalo, in all seriousness, said activists who attended tea parties are racists with dysfunctional brains in a recent prime-time television appearance.

"Let's be very honest about what this is about. This is not about bashing Democrats. It's not about taxes. They have no idea what the Boston Tea party was about. They don't know their history at all.

It's about hating a black man in the White House," she said on MSNBC's "The Countdown" with Keith Olbermann Thursday evening.

"This is racism straight up and is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. There is no way around that."

Olbermann did not once try to challenge her on those assertions.

The actress went on to describe the brain size of typical "right-winger, Republican or conservative or your average white power activist."

"Their synapses are misfiring. ... It is a neurological problem we are dealing with," she said. This isn't the first time she's offered this analysis, either. Ms. Garofalo said similar things about Alaskan GOP Governor Sarah Palin's brain last February in an interview with an environmental blog.

What a disgusting bunch... They're cracking sick sex jokes, calling fiscal conservatives neo-Nazis or calling them racists.

The Left has really outdone itself this week.

My dear racist rightwingers white trash rednecks supremacists veterans:

Let’s go Al Sharpton on Garofalo. She is a “star” on FOX’s top rated series “24”. Let’s DEMAND Fox to drop her because she accused mainstream America (arguably FOX’s largest consumer base) of being white trash rednecks and racists. We can do this! IF we flood FOX’s corporate email boxes with thousands of angry letters, they will have no choice but to show her the door! MOney talks and bulls%%t walks. When “24” sponsors’ find out about people’s angry letters, they will “ask” FOX to fire her. Let’s send this Z-lister back to Hollywood and its West’coast values, where she belongs!

Yes, even more reason to pity the woman. She’s filthy in mind and body, a genuine case of arrested development, and stupid as a stick. Every word out of her mouth tells everyone that she is so insane that it’s too bad the socialists closed the asylums. Can you imagine what it must be like to be so deranged, so mean spirited, so closed minded, and so full of rage all the time? She’s living in a virtual dungeon of despair so deep that she can’t even stop attacking Conservatives when her side is in total control of the government.

Hatred hurts only the hater, and she’s in a world of hurt. Pitiful. ‘Course she’s not the only one on the leftist side...
