THE STAR TREATMENT Actress Janeane Garofalo: Jail all Republicans Activist says GOP 'small-minded,' only Democrats 'decent'
The latest "Real Time with Bill Maher" show erupted into a vicious 4-against-1 bashfest of conservative columnist John Fund and Republicans in general, culminating in one left-leaning guest on the panel calling for all Republicans to be "jailed."
From the start of the HBO show, Hollywood activist Janeane Garofalo, a Barack Obama supporter, expressed agitation over the overnight national popularity of GOP vice presidential nod Gov. Sarah Palin, who has helped running mate John McCain pull within the statistical margin of error of Obama in many polls.
Garofalo ridiculed her as an empty pantsuit who lacks a firm grasp of the issues.
Fund defended Palin and her experience and warned that such Palin-bashing will only create a backlash in the heartland against Democrats. "Keep it up," he taunted Garofalo and other critics on the panel.
"You guys are the kings of petty, nasty rhetoric," Garofalo snapped at Fund, who writes for the Wall Street Journal.
She then slammed the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., as a gathering of "small-minded, very petty (and) mean" delegates and speakers who simply grinded out "red meat" for the "dopes" in the red states.
"It's all limbic brain stuff," she said.
Continuing her rant, Garofalo asserted that Republicans believe in nothing decent and should all be locked up.
"There is no evidence to support that the current incarnation of the Republican Party-hyphen-conservative movement has any tethering to decency, kindness, tolerance (or) open-mindedness," she said. "What do they stand for? Torture as a policy. They stand for homophobia. They stand for no reproductive justice. They stand for denying global warming."

Wasn’t Janine Garofalo one of the Munchkins or Oompa Loompas?
Oh...hee hee....she IS a Munchkin!
CW2 PING
THey’ll need a pretty big Gulag to jail us all.
If they can....
Yes, then it's just one more step before you start building furnaces to solve the problem of people who are not like you... Ms. Garofalo! We've been there, thanks anyway!
Unfortunately she will be featured in the next season of ‘24’
Yet another small-minded, petty, boorish, and ignorant lefty.
Ever since I joined Free Republic I have used the same tagline.
“reproductive justice”
Wow, first time I’ve seen that particular phrase.
Looks like a cool combination of “social justice” (meaningless) with “reproductive rights” (infanticide).
Hey Jeanie - why is it that everything God stands for, you leftists oppose, and vice versa? And the conservatives are the evil ones?
Isa 5:20
Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
Moderate and conservative women used their brains when deciding who to vote for. Liberal women cast votes based on their gentialia and uterus. They are “one issue” voters. They could give a flying fig about anyone but themselves. This point was so brilliantly illustrated by Janeane Garofalo.
In libland, “reproductive justice” means free to commit infanticide.
Not much justice in it for the murdered baby........
It's not so much as what we stand for as what we are AGAINST!
That would start with the killing of unborn babies, homosexuality, welfare, taxes, bail outs, more gun laws, political correctness, government run healthcare, HOLLYWOOD, etc,etc,etc...
Being a kind-hearted, card-carrying member of the VRWC, I would say that this tatooed little tart should not be jailed, but it would be a kindness if she were hidden.
Two words: Dixie Chicks.
It worked for those loonies.
Bingo! If you really want to make a statement to those types(meaning the Streisand and the like crowd)then do it with your money and your choice. I can do without one more Streisand song in my world. I can do without another LowLife(lohan) movie, I can do without another Sarandon flick, I can do without another Damon(trying to act) movie.
I am sure if you all really think about it, we can without most of them.
Come and get me. My face will be the last thing you see.
That’s her these days?
Sad.
I can tell she’s a self loathing sinner that seeks to have all evidence of her sin wiped from public discourse so that her conscience won’t bother her, all the while living with her guilt.
Pretty? How about pretty average. (being generous?)
She’s killed a baby or two.
No one is this vehement about having all vestiges of examples of GOOD wiped from public view without having some deep guilt about a heinous act.
Since we “vile conservatives” have most of firearms in this country (the sight of them doesn’t make us tinkle down our leg) just how in the hell does she expect to accomplish her “final solution”. Good luck with that .... keep your head down.
Ten years ago I thought she was the prettiest thing in the world.
Now she looks like this.
Something’s wrong with that girl.
