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."

Earlier in her “career” (snarky quotes intended), Gabuffalo was a kind of cute, seemingly pleasant, normal person. My, how times have changed: what a greasy skank. She deliberately wears clothing to proudly display tatoos that just make her look like an escaped convict. And I’ve seen some of these clips. You can’t get more filled with hatred and condescension than this broad.
Coming from a fat short jealous little delusional liberal...it figures
They would, and they won’t.
I’d be happy to oblige. Is there any way to keep a running list for reference on FR? Or is there already one and I’ve missed it? :\
So now they’re calling infanticide “reproductive justice”?
Although why Janeane would have to worry is beyond me. Unless it’s a case of her always staying at the bar until closing time.
No one’s jailing me or my family. Ever. If I must go down, I’ll do my best to ensure that it’ll be a 10-for-1 trade.
Especially since we're the half with the guns.
She used to be attractive.
Now she’s a walking freak show.
She looks like a heroin addict.
You made me LOL!
Garofalo was handed her head on a plate by Brian Kilmead on Fox and Friends and hasn’t been the same since. My personal favorite quote from that interview “Yeah? Well I read Foreign Affairs every week.” The publication is bi-monthly. I doubt she reads it at all. She has no bona fides and is not qualified to speak on any subject whatsoever.
Her show on Air America was a dismal failure and her acting career is done since she’s turned so nasty - she has a future only as a guest on Osama bin Olbermann and Bill Mahnster’s shows.
Whose carpet is she cleaning?
I thought she was kind of cute, in a girl next door kind of way (if you lived in a trailer park on the wrong side of town).
Sometime after she did ‘Mystery Men’ it seemed to all fall apart for her. She started all the self mutilation and decided to rail against the right.
She thinks reading extreme lefty blogs amounts to an education.
Since then every appearance seems more bitter than the last, I keep expecting her to crawl up her own ass and vanish into a singularity.
She MUST be a vegetarian. Coming from a DemRAT; perhaps that should be spelled. . .

Pearls before swine is just that. Whether the Hollywood, elitist swine wears lipstick or not.
My self I haven't been to a Movie since 1992 and have bought nothing but Blues music since 1988.
Come and get us Janeane, we’ve got guns.
Se went from being a pretty decent comedienne to B-list bore in a short time.
I also found telling her use of the phrase “Limbic Brain” - there is no “limbic brain” - there is a limbic region of the brain and guess what Garawfulo - it is considered the seat of RAGE. It is the area where the “fight” aspect of “fight or flight” syndrome lives. Apparently dumb bunny believes it is where evil lives. she heard the “limbic” phrase once (maybe during her weekly reading of “Foreign Affairs”) and has no idea how to use it properly.
Which is ironic - since her tirade certainly gave an indication that her limbic region has assumed control of her frontal lobe, and if evil resides anywhere, it’s between her ears.
“24” jumped the shark two seasons ago when they nuked L.A.
It just seemed really pointless after that.
