Garafolo is interesting . An appealing actress, but an awful standup comedian , all that terminal angst and boring atheistic wariness personna is a turnoff.

She is bright , but seems to live in a different world than the rest of us.

She is? Really!

If stupid is as stupid does [it is/does], so much the more so for intelligence. Why do we continue to give people who project a certain persona through specific, narrowly tailored media vehicles a pass on their infantile, silly, and in JG's case incredibly stupid actions and pronouncements?

Intelligence requires more than education [which is increasingly nothing more than parroting a handful of useful phrases to equally dim professors]. It's more than memorization too [ok, i admit she can do lines on cue]. It involves problem solving ability, common sense, and an all-too-often neglected faculty called judgement.

Please elaborate with concrete examples which of these last three qualities she's ever displayed in public, so the rest of us can understand the delicious, intriguing paradox that is JG.

So you saw her standup "comedy" act too huh? Boy, what a sour little misanthropic person she is!! When I saw her a few years back on HBO or some other premium channel, she recited every leftist and radical-feminist catchphrase possible all delivered with a coldhearted sneer. And she actually used a crib sheet ala Elvis (ha ha) as she hadn't bothered to rehearse her "wonderful" act such as it was.

How can you think someone that spouts off their views day in and day out but never challenged BRIGHT? She gets her news from AlJazeer for gosh sakes and likes it. That is the biggest propaganda machine, more so than CNN.
