Garofalo: GOP Loves Herman Cain Because He Pretends We're In A Post-Racial Society (video)

Comedienne and actress Janeane Garofalo paid another visit to Current TV's "Countdown" program on Wednesday night. Garofalo talked about Republicans, Obama, the Tea Party and of course, Herman Cain.

"It always works on a certain segment of the population. If you are trying to appeal to the worst in us. Quite literally, the worst in us and you're trying to go to the limbic brain of anxiety, fear, intolerance, hatred, bitterness, ignorance, you have to just use these very simple, as they say, dog whistle words," Garofalo said while trying to explain what she believes will be the Republican strategy in 2012. Garofalo gave a stumbling and bumbling response.

Garofalo then accused the "mainstream media" of letting gaffes by Republicans slide. No joke.

Continuing her diatribe against Republicans, Garofalo explained why the party loves a black man like Herman Cain.

"But they do love a black man like Herman Cain, and Michael Steele, and is it Ron Christie? Any of these pundits who pretend we're in a post-racial society. They like that kind of black person," Garofalo said.

While defending Occupy protests Garofalo said the Tea Party movement is not legitimate and accused supporters of being motivated by "racial intolerance."

"Or 'I'm not armed this time,' they had signs that would say that," Garofalo said while recalling news reports she saw on the Tea Party. "So, how is linking arms on a college campus an act of aggression, but saying you have a gun and you're willing to use it and it's time to secede and to revolution [sic] and you don't recognize this government is legitimate. [...] They are a [sic] astroturfed fully-funded by the Koch Brothers, FreedomWorks, and supported by FOX News. They are [a] subset of the Republican party primarily motivated by racial intolerance."

A "post-racial society?"

Isn't that exactly what Adolf was trying to create?

If it ever got out that conservatives are color blind and issue oriented... why... that would ruin the Democrat party.

Thank goodness Garofalo is around to keep that annoying fact from getting out.

Didn’t this obnoxious witch use up her 15 minutes about 10 years ago? Who cares what she thinks or says?

The real racists are liberals. They’re obsessed with race!

She’s just sexually frustrated. Unfortunately for her, she failed to realize that being a greasy skank does not appeal to the majority of potential partners.

Accuse your victims of what you are doing to them. Oldest trick in the book. Moronic liberal asswipes can't string two sentences together, and then all of a sudden they go into memorized zombie mode and spew out seven different psychoanalytic political theories about reverse genetic predispositions towards brain-function linked predatory mercantilism... and then scratch themselves and belch... and then go back to their standard nyeah nyeah nyeah idiocy until they get another programming meme to regurgitate from their next group obedience meeting.

You think this is a rant? Repeat it verbatim at the next spewing liberal and watch their eyes bug out.

Basically she is saying that she and her kind love living in their racist world and reject the post-racial one that Republicans universally support.

Garofalo is under the illusion that her being liberal and stupid gives her license to be racist.

“The far-left knows they’ve been taking advantage of those votes for a very long time.”

Well said.

Every time one of these imbeciles spills their true beliefs they drive independents our way.

It’s only when they hide there true intentions that they are able to fool people who only casually follow politics.

Comedienne and actress Janeane Garofalo...

She is neither comedienne nor actress.

A bitter, hateful slack-titted gorgon would be a more accurate description.

every now and then she rears her ugly head and says things that make NO SENSE. What a dip. So hate filled and bitter. I feel pity for her...she has nothing but ugly insides.

Cain knows the situation very well. He knows that people like her hate him because he and other black conservatives threaten her party. That party wants people to be segregated into religious, racial and social classes.
