During last year's election campaign, liberal media members treated Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin with a hatred most Americans had never witnessed from the press.
On Thursday's "Countdown," MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and his guest Janeane Garofalo defamed fellow citizens who attended the prior day's Tea Parties with the same vitriolic contempt.
Garofalo actually called Party-goers "a bunch of teabagging rednecks," adding "this is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up."
But that's just the beginning, for what Olbermann and Garofalo engaged in Thursday evening is amongst the most vile, hate-filled attacks on average American citizens ever conveyed on national television by so-called journalists. Please brace yourself (video embedded below the fold with transcript corrected from closed-captioning, h/t NBer Jeff Fuller):
KEITH OLBERMANN, HOST: Well, the teabagging is all over, except for the cleanup. And that will be my last intentional double entendre on this one at least until the end of this segment. Our number two story tonight, the sad reality behind the corporate sponsored Tea Parties, visual proof that this is not about spending, deficits, or taxes, but about some Americans getting riled up by the people who caused these things, and finally about some Americans who just hate the president of the United States. According to both the conservative organs, the New York Post and the Washington Times, see there was another double entendre coming, the protests only drew tens of thousands nationwide, despite relentless 24/7 promotion on Fox News, including live telecasts from several locations. Like Fox's Neil Cavuto caught yesterday off-air estimating his crowd in California's capitol at 5,000, then on air claiming it might have been 10,000 or 15,000. Despite Cavuto's live show with radio talker Michael Reagan there, Sacramento police put the crowd at just over 5,000. "I wouldn't say it was among the largest we've seen here, but 5,000 is pretty large for the west steps."
And then there were the protest messages, seething with hate. Cavuto calling that hate bipartisan. "They hate Republicans who waste money, they hate Democrats who waste money." That claim put to the test in Pensacola when an unemployed blogger named Jeff accepted an invitation to speak to Florida.
BLOGGER JEFF: I want to start off by honoring the service of our veterans, our current service members, thank you so much for all you've done for this country. I also want to say, a little history lesson here. Back in 2000, there was a bunch of surplus in the country. And then the next ten years, it was just destroyed by the profligate spending by the Bush administration. Here we are today in a situation where we have to...Cheer if you make less than $250,000 in a year. Just cheer. Your taxes are going to be cut under the current budget. Congratulations. I was laid off in September because my employer had to make budget cuts. That was before the election. Let's remember if you're going to argue about more taxes and less spending, to place the blame where the blame belongs and that's squarely in the hands of the Republican congress and...
CROWD: Boo!
OLBERMANN: Congratulations, Pensacola teabaggers. You got spunked. And despite the hatred on display, a few of you actually violated the penal code. But teabagging is now petered out, taint what it used to be. And when you co-opt the next holiday, Fourth of July, try to adopt a holiday food that does not invite the double entendres like, you know, franks and beans. On a more serious note, we're now joined by actor, activist Janeane Garofalo. Good to see you.
JANEANE GAROFALO: Thank you. You know, there's nothing more interesting than seeing a bunch of racists become confused and angry at a speech they're not quite certain what he's saying. It sounds right and then it doesn't make sense. Which, let's be very honest about what this is about. It's 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. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. That is nothing but a bunch of teabagging rednecks. And there is no way around that. And you know, you can tell these type of right wingers anything and they'll believe it, except the truth. You tell them the truth and they become -- it's like showing Frankenstein's monster fire. They become confused, and angry and highly volatile. That guy, causing them feelings they don't know, because their limbic brain, we've discussed this before, the limbic brain inside a right-winger or Republican or conservative or your average white power activist, the limbic brain is much larger in their head space than in a reasonable person, and it's pushing against the frontal lobe. So their synapses are misfiring. Is Bernie Goldberg listening?
OLBERMANN: Russ.
GAROFALO: Because Bernie might not have heard this when I said this the first time. So, Bernie, this is for you. It is a neurological problem we're dealing with.
OLBERMAN: Well, what do we do about it, though? I mean, our friend in Pensacola there who played them like a $3 fiddle and led them right down the garden path with nothing but facts and then they went, wait a minute, that doesn't sound like Rush Limbaugh. If you can't get them to make that last leap to what are we all doing here, Howard Johnson is wrong, how do you break through that?
GAROFALO: I don't think you do, for most of them. This is a -- it's almost pathological or elevated to a philosophy or lifestyle. And again, this is about racism. It could be any issue, any port in the storm. These guys hate that a black guy is in the White House. But they immigrant bash, they pretend taxes and tea bags, and like I said, most of them probably couldn't tell you thing one about taxation without representation, the Boston tea party, the British imperialism, whatever the history lesson has to be. But these people, all white for the most part, unless there's some people with Stockholm syndrome there.
OLBERMANN: And, I didn't see them, the fact that they weren't near the cameras which is bad strategy on the part of the people that were staging this at Fox.
GAROFALO: True, and Fox News loves to foment this anti-intellectualism because that's their bread and butter. If you have a cerebral electorate, Fox news goes down the toilet, very, very fast. But it is sick and sad to see Neil Cavuto doing that. They've been doing it for years, that's why Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch started this venture, is to disinform and to coarsen and dumb down a certain segment of the electorate. But what is really, I didn't know there were so many racists left. I didn't know that. I -- you know, because as I've said, the Republican hype and the conservative movement has now crystallized into the white power movement.
OLBERMANN: Is that not a bad, long-term political strategy because even though your point is terrifying that there are that many racists left, the flip side of it is there aren't that many racists left.
GAROFALO: They're the minority, but literally tens of people showed up to this thing across the country.
OLBERMANN: But if you spear your television network or your political party towards a bunch of guys looking who are just looking for a reason to yell at the black president, eventually you will marginalize yourself out of business, won't you?
GAROFALO: Here's what the right-wing has in, there's no shortage of the natural resources of ignorance, apathy, hate, fear. As long as those things are in the collective conscious and unconscious, the Republicans will have some votes. Fox News will have some viewers. But what else have they got? If they didn't do that, who is going to watch -- you know what I mean? They have tackled that elusive clam -- you know, the clam, the 18 to 35 clam -- klan. Klan. With a k demo. But, you know, who else is Fox talking to? I mean, what is it urban older white guys? And the girlfriend, and, you know, the women who suffer from Stockholm syndrome gain. There's a lot of Stockholm syndrome, is what I'm saying ultimately. What else do you want to know?
OLBERMANN: What happens if somebody who's at one of these things hurt somebody?
GAROFALO: That is an unfortunate byproduct since the dawn of time of a volatile group like this of the limbic brain. Violence unfortunately may or may not ensue. It always, it's like a, the Republican Party now depends upon immigrant bashing and hating the black guy in the White House. Will people act on that? It's not new. But, you know, Fox doesn't mind fomenting it. Michelle Bachmann doesn't mine fomenting it. Glenn Beck doesn't mind fomenting it.
OLBERMANN: Lou Dobbs.
GAROFALO: Lou Dobbs. Oh, man he sure doesn't mind. But this is, this their, what have they got if they don't have this? You know what I mean? It's like an identity politics of the worst kind.
OLBERMANN: They'd have peace in our time.
GAROFALO: Is Bernie still listening?
OLBERMANN: Bernie doesn't listen. Bernie listened for about two minutes last week. And that was it.
GAROFALO: Oh, he doesn't watch your show?
OLBERMANN: No, no, no, no, no, I mean in general that was his year's contribution to the actual political
GAROFALO: So I can move up the rung from five to at least three.
OLBERMANN: Janeane Garofalo, number five, comedian, actress, political activist, and the expert on the limbic brain, great thanks as always.
GAROFALO: Very much thanks to you.
Wow! Is this what America has become?

Garofolo has just turned into a nasty, little person who doesn't know what she's talking about and is only spewing knee-jerk typical hate.
Oh, and I'm not white. So she's a liar and doesn't know what she's talking about.

Pretty remarkable that you can call the Chairman of one of the two major parties in America a confused "self-loathing" "black guy" that is incapable of making a sound decision about what is best for himself. In prime time television no less (for MSNBC Countdown is their crown jewel). Not only that but then YOU can call other people racist.

Olberman just sounds like he wasn't teabagged enough as a child and is craving that kind of attention.
obama's notion of bi-partisanship is telling conservatives to shut up and do what he wants.

Self-parody
April 16, 2009 - 23:51 ET by KC MulvilleIf I told you that black people were racist, just because they're black, you'd laugh. It's an insult that doubles back on itself, and proves that the accuser is more guilty of the accusation than the accused.
Here, Garofalo spews accusations of hatred and racism, yet in the act of doing so, proves her own hatred and, yes, racism.
Meanwhile, Olbermann offers yet another testament to his brilliance. He, the man who is trailing Fox by miles, lectures us on the relationship between content and ratings: "eventually you will marginalize yourself out of business, won't you?"
Look at Drudge's ratings:

April 17, 2009 - 00:06 ET by Massage_Master07I flipped to Uberdick just in time to see Gene Grabthepillow. I THINK that you all know EXACTLY what I mean when I say that, kinda like they, the MSM refer to all of the 250,000+ as "tea baggers" bitch about the "tens" that went to the Tea Parties all over the country.
What REALLY pissed me off was when said GAROFALO: That is an unfortunate byproduct since the dawn of time of a
volatile group like this of the limbic brain. Violence unfortunately
may or may not ensue.
Well, Gene Grabthepillow, with the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS across this great nation of ours, there was NO ONE incident of violence or destruction of property. HOWEVER if just a small group of your liberal buddies, friends, lovers and followers get together to protest ANYTHING of a conservative nature, health and property insurance SKYROCKET. Why is that you ask? Well, let us see. It COULDN'T be because of the "limbic brain" of the liberals just can't keep THEIR protests peaceful, could it? NNAAAAAHH Not HER libs. They wouldn't THINK of throwing stones or bottles, turning over and or burning cars or, let's see, throwing bricks through windows on the campus of UNC to protest a conservative congressman exercizing HIS free speech rights, could it?

People just don't like you. You can't even say they are racist for not liking you. You're not black, or Hispanic so far as we can tell. It's all personal.

April 17, 2009 - 00:41 ET by maggieqpublicThese two bring dividends to the conservative cause. There is way too much audio and video from yesterday’s tea party protests to give any credence to the Olbermann/Garofalo charges of racism, red-neckism, anti-intellectualism, whatever, on the part of the protesters.
Keep talking, Keith and Janeane, while the rest of us roll our eyes. I, for one, am way past feeling guilty for a bunch of 1960’s alleged slights as perceived by a couple of unregenerated hippies.
I’ve lived in and around the lib blue zone for too long to take these two seriously.
But Janeane did make one good point…
…. most of them probably couldn't tell you thing one about taxation without representation, the Boston tea party, the British imperialism, whatever the history lesson has to be.
Janeane is right about average citizen knowledge of the history and principles of America’s early years. In retrospect, it is clear my children learned more about ‘black history month’ than they learned about our founding citizens… you know, the racist, imperialist founding fathers.

We just got the Levin book here yesterday...I may do as you just said you were to my oldest son for his birthday along with a wake up call...I think that is a darn good idea.

MSNBC fomenting racial tension
April 17, 2009 - 00:51 ET by KHalpernBy labeling all conservations and anyone else opposed to Obama's policies as racists, MSNBC is fomenting racial tension. Where they responsible for the killing of the four police officers in Oakland by the black parole? This could be the start of increased hated among African-Americans of white people, Hispanics and Asian-Americans. The Department of Homeland Security should keep a close watch on the hate speech coming from MSNBC.

April 17, 2009 - 00:54 ET by BlondeI generally avoid Olbermann posts, here, like the plague. He's beneath contempt.
But for some silly reason (I guess since you put this up) I actually suffered through the entire video....a first (and last) for me.
All I can say is that I had an absolutely visceral reaction to both of these twits....pseudo intellectual psychopaths on display. I really, truly hope I never catch sight of either of them in person. Because I know you don't have enough cash to bail me out.
If the left needs a face, and a filthy one at that....the idiot twins will suffice, nicely.
I hope he fails, too.
Useful idiots
April 17, 2009 - 01:04 ET by JetmoreThese "useful idiots" don't know that they are guaranteeing the failure of their socialist agenda. They mock and make light of the hardworking everyman that pay their wages. These jackholes (liberals) are fond of saying that conservatives lost by a landslide and now have to shut up and deal with it. There is a landslide vote taking place right now. That's the vote by the people that cling to religion and guns. There is a reason that gun manufacturers have a 3-6 month wait time on orders. There is a reason that you can't find ammunition or that an entire weeks shipment sells out in 20 minutes. In our current economy many firearms are twice the price that they were 6 months ago. Many, many people are terrified by the direction that our president and his administration is taking us in. There is a 2+ month wait on pistol classes; safety, concealed carry, etc. There are massive demonstrations which Obama and the media ignore and/or belittle. States are now threatening to Secede. It looks like Nero will indeed fiddle while Rome burns.

April 17, 2009 - 01:20 ET by mostlymoderateWhy are they allowed to call us "Rednecks" and "White Trash" and "Hicks"? Liberals demand that we use sensible language like "African American" and "Latino" and "Iranian American" but they still refer to us in the derogatory sense.

Instead they bow, kiss arse, depend on voters not seeing the phonies they are...and pray they are elected or reelected.

April 17, 2009 - 08:20 ET by Paul AtreidesImmediately, resolve not to vote for candidates who start talking about "reaching across the aisle" to Dims;
Don't go to any of the liberal celebs' movies;
Cancel your cable subscription (just because you stop watching their channel doesn't mean that you stop paying for it)
Send them a message that you don't like being insulted and treated with hatred.
Wow, just wow...
April 17, 2009 - 01:27 ET by Alpha101As I said in another thread related to MSDNC, they are really going above and beyond the pale. It is almost literally, every night, every segment, a chance to attack those who Olbs disagrees with, or is jealous of, or hates, or wants to start a fight with. If I wasn't so sure he is a HUGE pussy I'd call him a bully.
Either way what will it honestly take to get him off the air. No more, excuse me, pussy footing around the subject. Maddow, Matthews, Schultz, their bad, but this piece is the head circus clown and needs to be taken off.

I have found the more offensive the product or media, the more difficult it maybe to find. Sometimes a google search will find particular addy's. Just to make a point, notice how Fox offers e-mails for each of their host, more concerning the programing, and a general bin.
Edit, this is and example of the page you want to find, to bypass the standard form. I havent the time to look them all up now, maybe I will start posting them in bulk?

April 17, 2009 - 01:37 ET by Captain KirockAnyone who claims that the left is not filled with haters needs to watch a few minutes of these two neanderthals grunting and groaning at each other.

Limbric Brain?
April 17, 2009 - 03:34 ET by bknownstSo according to mister Garofolo the problem with conservatives is that our brains are too large. I would much rather deal with that than the liberals problem of having no brain. In typical disgusting liberal fashion these fools attribute liberal tendencies to their opposition. Most of us on the right didn't even know what "teabagging" was until the liberals started telling us all about the sexual practices they enjoy. Comrade President Obayme me is only 1 person in the Communist Administration now in power, so how is it racist to point out the crimes these people are committing? Pelosi, reed, biden,geitner,frank,dodd etc. etc. etc. are not black!
Stereotyping
April 17, 2009 - 04:43 ET by ChattychitoThis is all about stereotyping. now Homosexuals, blacks and Liberals don't like to be stereotyped. but they are not against stereotyping others.
Here anyone who is against abortion is stereotyped as a conservative extremist, while many who are against Abortion are liberals.
so what is the purpose. to place all conservatives and anyone (lib or conservative) against any of the laws be sought to be passed by congress as an extremist terrorist that needs to be watched or jailed. this to be done so no one will oppose anything Congress or the socialist in congress want to pass. Of course if you eliminate the opposition you can get away with murder.
calling us names like redneck, Hick is pure bigotry. these that want equality of the races, sexes and religions surely show their real prejudices. these MSM spokespersons are pure unadulterated Hate mongers and racist of the worst kind. they are actually closet racists covering their racism with politically correct terms when dealing with those of race and religion (except Christians of course) but we all know when they are how in their private world they are the biggest racists and bigots.

Inferring, however so slyly, that those they were against, were somewhat less than "human", or at least "different" and not quite equal to themselves?

I disagree that Gov Palin
April 17, 2009 - 05:53 ET by eaglewingz08I disagree that Gov Palin has been the most reviled Republican by the media and its hangers on, the most hated has to be Richard Nixon followed up by Ronald Reagan then W then Quayle then Palin. I also didn't know that Garafolo is a qualified neurologist and/or brain surgeon in her spare time (which she seems to have alot of since her acting career is in the sewer). She is such a moron, it doesn't matter the size of the limbic system as a basis for its activity. The pituitary gland is the second smallest gland in the body (I believe the pineal gland is smallest) yet the pituitary gland is the Master Gland. So whether or not conservatives or republicans limbic system is 'bigger' it would have no effect on the frontal lobe as the corpus callosium intervenes between the two, and the limbic system is mediated through chemicals neurotransmitters not through size).
As for irrationality, even Camille Paglia recognizes that conservatives are rational and liberals are highly irrational in their beliefs. Anyone who goes to a liberal march realizes that the brains and rationality of the marchers have dropped out years before. And as for hate and racism, just go to a liberal parade and you see such vile displays that wouldn't be countenanced at a republican/conservative event. It wasn't republicans who threw oreos at black candidates for office, it was liberals throwing them at Steele and Strickland. Talk about racism.

But teabagging is now petered out, taint what it used to be. And when you co-opt the next holiday, Fourth of July, try to adopt a holiday food that does not invite the double entendres like, you know, franks and beans. On a more serious note, we're now joined by actor, activist Janeane Garofalo. Good to see you.
More disgusting that Janet Jackson's "accidental" exposure. Trash talk like that belongs on by the hour motel pay-per-view movies, where people live out dark fantasies.
It pains me to watch 24 with Barfalo. Fortunately, a small role inducing minimal damage to the cameras.

April 17, 2009 - 09:30 ET by slickwillie2001Perhaps the next time these protests happen, the organizers should consider doing them during a TV ratings sweeps week. That way the surge in ratings that those that cover the events experience, will factor into increased revenues for them. That would be justice.

April 17, 2009 - 08:35 ET by Robert17I never imagined that I would see a day when liberals would support bailing out multinational corporate banks with taxpayer money if it meant they could avoid saying anything bad about a black man.
Freak Show
April 17, 2009 - 08:50 ET by Tom PaineI came across this train wreck flipping through the channels last night and the collective stupidity was absolutely amazing, as was listening to the always insufferable Garofalo prattle on about the limbic brain as if she is some sort of Anthropology professor. This segment did have an educational value in that even my wife, who is a self-described liberal, was appalled by the spectacle. At one point she asked me “what is her hair doing in the back?” I replied that it was sticking out from all of the grease.
So let’s break this down; Garofalo actually believes that anyone who disagrees with her has a mental defect. Once again, I apply my rule and ask what would happen if a conservative described members of a protected group in this way? Secondly she applies the Liberal knee jerk reaction that anyone who disagrees with Obama, even on legitimate policy issues, is a racist. I predicted back in November that this would become the favored tactic in an Obama administration, making any of his actions above reproach by preemptively demonizing his critics. This becomes doubly dangerous because it is reinforced by what passes for journalism in the mainstream media.
I am getting confused though. If the tea parties were such a failure as these nitwits would have us believe, then why are they expending so much energy trying to discredit them? Conservatives are beginning to organize and it has the liberals scared to death. Let’s keep it up.

Please, everyone!
April 17, 2009 - 08:52 ET by Paul AtreidesWe should be extending thanks to the likes of Olbermann, Shuster, Garafaolo, Matthews, Maddow, and Schultz, for they have finally dropped the mask of tolerance, diversity, peace, love, etc. to reveal their true selves: despotic, hate-filled, arrogant, judgmental, spiteful, hypocrital, un-patriotic, bitter, narrow-minded, racist, and intolerant.
The Left is revealing itself to be exactly what it has labeled Christians for decades.

The "Mainstream" Media: By liberals. For liberals.
There's more than a small
April 17, 2009 - 09:06 ET by fitzfongThere's more than a small piece of unintentional humor whenever that flea-infested skank Garofalo appears on Olbermann's show. You've got two ivory tower pseudo-intellectuals without the first clue about how business works recycling lame, juvenile sex jokes and fraudulent claims of racism. When you've got nothing of substance to contribute to an argument, you tend to fall back on erroneous oversimplifications of motive so that you appear to have something to say. Here are two elitist parasites who have never had to put their own capital at risk to create jobs, meet payroll, make quarterly income tax payments, yet they claim to know what triggers the anger of protesters. And Olbermann is a documented tax cheat, for God's sake!
Here's a tip for these two intellectual lightweights: any protest against Obama comes not from the fact that he is black (and Garofalo and Olbermann know it), but the fact that he's an economic illiterate Marxist agitator who somehow believes he is better suited to grow an economy than those individuals who actaully have "skin in the game" and have gotten their hands dirty to make it happen. The economy grows when individuals and small businesses have incentive to risk their own money to deliver much-needed (and/or wanted) goods and services to the marketplace...but President Fonzie's deep-seated resentment towards the producers of this world leads him to punish businesses for having the temerity to succeed. That attitude towards business causes individuals to reconsider whether or not it's worth the effort to invest their money to create jobs if they're just going to be punished whether they succeed (through high taxation, unreasonable regulation, overbearing "environmental" and union harassment and viral litigation) or fail. If President Fonzie and his minions in Congress would simply reduce marginal tax rates and loosen the unnecessary and destructive regulation, the entrepreneurial spirit that drives this country to lead the world would pull us out of the economic crisis that currently exists. But the Fonz wants to pay off his goons in ACORN, SEIU, the NEA, the Sierra Club and hundreds of other anti-American organizations, so that will never happen. That is real motivation for the tea parties.
Meanwhile, Olbermann and Garofalo can marinate in their ignorance while the rest of the country suffers at their hands. No doubt Olbermann, the Norman Fell of journalism, is busy concocting more lame jokes so he can mug for the camera when nobody else is laughing. And Garofalo is long overdue for her next grooming session...it's been months since she's had her nits picked.

What's the Criteria?
April 17, 2009 - 09:17 ET by ICONIC FREEDOMSo, what is the foundational criteria for deciding who is or who isn't a racist?
If any liberal can simply list any number of objective criteria by which we can ALL be on the alert for such, we'd be grateful.

April 17, 2009 - 09:43 ET by NL207A classic example of projection.
I see Garofalo has her tramp stamps covered up in this interview. Apparently she is either an expert in conservative ideology and the conservative movement or she is a delusional nutcase and a bigot. My money is on the latter condition.

April 17, 2009 - 10:23 ET by ICONIC FREEDOMIf Americans would, in a free market where free choice places value upon the good & services of others would dominate instead of "feelings", "emotions", then intellect would direct choice of sorts toward NOT purchasing, supporting or otherwise endorsing individuals who did not uphold our personal subjective values & morals.

April 17, 2009 - 10:15 ET by DeclinesToStateI once was angered by this kind of stupidity, but now find it amusing....... Please Eric Holder, note this lady's comments. This is why we cannot have a honest discussion of race. People this lacking in intellect can talk on televised shows and be heard. I heard her call Larry Elder a self loathing black man, using her own "synapse", shouldn't she be considered a self loathing white person. Can't we just label all her Bush hate as anti white? In a more sinister sense isn't this just another way the these white "intellectuals" try to keep blacks on the Democratic Plantation?
Janeane Garfalatio
April 17, 2009 - 10:16 ET by richardListening to this pond scum bitch talk like she is some kind of intellect is beyond rationality. She and her ilk are the problems of this country and their too ignorant to realize it.
I used the subject matter "Garfalatio" because she is nothing but a political whore, but on the other hand, she's probably a carpet muncher, because she would be the worst nightmare ever, for a drunk guy to wake up next to, the morning after.
Take a bath Janeane, you look like you have grung growing all over you.

Something has changed all right
April 17, 2009 - 11:58 ET by StarAZFirst--Fox came late to this. That's my impression. They may be accused of jumping on the bandwagon, but they didn't construct it.
Secondly, yes, these may have been focused on a vague range of issues or just on uneasiness and fear. We are all beginning to realize no one knows what to do, that everything has changed, and nothing is going back the way it was. And that wildly spending trillions upon trillions, esp when much of it goes to your friends, is a panic reaction...not leadership.

April 17, 2009 - 11:51 ET by east tennessee johnWhen, if ever, are these "liberal intellectual elites" will it sink in that the reason we don't like Comrade O is because he's all RED, not half black? How predictable. Disagree with a half black person, or all black person for that matter, on POLICY which these fu##ing morons can't articulate, let alone defend, and YOU are the racist. I suppose I'd rather be called a racist by the likes of KO the JO and Garafolo whose sole claim to claim to fame is demonstrating that THEY can't defend, in non ad hominem attacks, the policies of their beloved. The end of the politics of personal destruction indeed! Did anyone else notice? Sarkozy, Merkle and Calderone are all shorter than Comrade O and he didn't "bend over" when he shook hands with them. In fact, in the 24-7 coverage of Comrade O, since 2004, I've NEVER seen him "bend over" to shake hands with anyone else. Of course, noone else is an Islamic king, were they?

On a more serious note, we're now joined by actor, activist Janeane Garofalo. Good to see you."
I support the movement, but when the next movement gets started they really should consult with someone like a typical "southpark conservative" so that we can at least try to avoid this type of stuff - don't give them the ammo, keith is right about the franks and beans stuff

The world would be a better place if someone just put a bullet between her and Queef Olberjerk's eyes...
Remember, the Bible said thou shalt not *murder*, not thou shalt not *kill* (as in, self-defense or self-preservation, which, let's face it, is the stage we're at in this country)...

Garofalo is an ignorant liberal b*tch
April 17, 2009 - 13:13 ET by kevinm13Janeane Garofalo is uneducated and loves to take the furthest left liberal position. The problem with the Tea Parties for her is that she is not used to having educated well dressed people protesting the policies of a radical leftest government. She is used to dirty unemployed hippies who are wards of the state being protestors.
Get a life Miss Garofalo.
There are so many reasons
April 17, 2009 - 13:26 ET by Jack BauerThere are so many reasons why conservatives dislike President Omarxist -- but black ain't even on the list.

Just a friendly reminder~
April 17, 2009 - 14:17 ET by Georgia GirlHey, everybody.
I just wanted to give a little reminder that there are a lot of people watching this site. And I am sure they are looking for any reason at all to report threatening behavior~so although we have every right to express our views and how we feel, just a friendly reminder to be careful about wording that could come off as threatening to anybody. I know, it's unfair because we have a right to say how we feel about stuff (free speech and all) and vent without someone being unreasonable enough to think anybody would actually do anything wrong -- but truly, it's no stretch to imagine that someone viewing this site (with an agenda) would try to twist something into a reason to shut down NB. For me, it's just not hard to believe at all these days.
So just a word to the wise...which I know you all are.
I'm not going to mince words here
April 17, 2009 - 15:34 ET by Tom in NCAnd I'm going to apologize in advance for my language to all female posters on this site.
Garofalo, I've lived 52 years and seen a lot of disgusting, obnoxious people during that time, but you take the prize. You are nothing but greasy slimey slut, I don't know what sexual orientation you are and I don't care, but I imagine you repulse woman as well as men, from the greasy hair to the birds nest armpits to the toe jam , and I imagine that the smell that emanates from you is a combination of mutant B.O., bullsh*t, and a vaginal cheese that industrial strength douche couldn't even put a dent into.
What spews from your mouth is some the most ignorant, uninformed, and unintelligent hatred ever spoken, you like olberputz would never debate a conservative because not only would they show the world your total ignorance but they would reduce you to a blathering idiot unable to put together two coherent words.
That said, why don't you slink back into that slime pit you call home you filthy bitch!
Don't hold back!

Truculent: 'When you smoke your pipe. . .suppose

Do not the neighbors, as the fumes rise higher,
Cry terror-struck: "The chimney is afire"?'
Considerate: 'Take care,. . .your head bowed low

Tender: 'Pray get a small umbrella made,
Lest its bright color in the sun should fade!'
Pedantic: 'That beast Aristophanes

Of flesh and bone, beneath his forehead's bump!'
Cavalier: 'The last fashion, friend, that hook?
To hang your hat on? 'Tis a useful crook!'
Emphatic: 'No wind, O majestic nose,
Can give THEE cold!--save when the mistral blows!'
Dramatic: 'When it bleeds, what a Red Sea!'
Admiring: 'Sign for a perfumery!'
Lyric: 'Is this a conch?. . .a Triton you?'
Simple: 'When is the monument on view?'
Rustic: 'That thing a nose? Marry-come-up!

April 17, 2009 - 16:54 ET by sherylsimsI went to a tea party, and also watch ALOT of the coverage on television. I never saw a sign that had anything to do with Obama as race was concerned. And I am pretty sure if there had been one it would have been conveniently right in front of the camera shot. (At least from some of the news stations) I don't know what this guy is talking about when he says so many signs had pictures of Obama with big lips. If I were making a sign with Obama's picture on it, it would be his EARS that I would make fun of. His lips aren't that big.

Sorry dude...

Although maybe I should. Sounds like you guys are plenty scared of what they have to say there.

I'm not arguing
April 17, 2009 - 23:49 ET by RESTLESS 1I haven't begun to argue with you yet. You haven't brought anything new here. Your tired talking points have been dubunked repeatedly. No need for me to rub it in.

Hilarious stuff, Cyrano
April 18, 2009 - 10:06 ET by ArminiusYou had me going with you first few posts, but then I realized you were merely offering up a parody of an ignorant and hateful liberal. As someone who has observed those on the far left for many years, I have to say that your parody was spot on. That part about conservatives being afraid of the nutcases at the Daily Kos was classic! Congratulations.

Who cares what this untalented bimbo witch or this non-credible reporter wannabe has to say. They have their heads so far up their backsides they talk out their belly buttons and with it comes out all the crap they pushed forwd with their head there. Garafalo is as bigoted and hateful as any human being I've seen. She is worse thatn a skin head or KKK because she has bought into the race victimhood and is mad that she can't cash in on it. Just another Hollyweird bimbo who prostitues herself and thinks people care about the crap she spouts.

Saddened and Sickened
April 17, 2009 - 16:26 ET by Pr0ud_Amer1canI am saddened and sickened by what I see. I've spent quite a bit of time the last two days on the liberal msm sites to see if and how the Tea Parties are being reported. The attitude that comes across there is the same that is illustrated in this post.
I am truly sick to my stomach right now. I don't understand how so many of their listeners just assume what they are reading/hearing is truth. Don't they see the disgust so openly displayed against those who dare to question what's going on?
I'm a quiet, non-confrontational sort who, until last year, was oblivious to the differences that I see now. I never thought of not voting for BO because he's biracial...I actually gave him a fairer shake at first. (On a side note, all these guys pointing the finger at us and calling us racist seem awfully racist to me when they refuse to acknowledge BO's white mother.)
I have begun posting to some of the liberal sites and encourage those here to do the same. But please...no name calling and finger pointing. The facts speak for themselves. You will notice "they" (liberal television "reporters", newspaper editors, bloggers, etc.) spend the majority of time complaining about us when they would serve everyone better by voicing their opinions clearly and backing them up with the facts that have led them to their conclusions. Let's continue to let our voices be heard in the honorable and respectful way that was seen April 15th.
I'm proud of this. Just

Let's not change
April 17, 2009 - 16:50 ET by Pr0ud_Amer1canLet's not change the name Tea Party because some juveniles find it funny. (What's really funny is that they aren't even making fun of us correctly...they are the ones talking about teabags.) To change the name would just give them the idea that they have power. I say, 4th of July and iced TEA go great together!

RACIST TEA PARTIES
April 17, 2009 - 20:05 ET by Mad-jFirst, our current president is only HALF black! Everyone seems to forget his mother was 100% caucasian (I am the grandfather of an Etheopian immigrant adopted by my caucasian daughter and son-in-law). Second, if she did not attend a "Tea Party", she should keep her big liberal yap shut. BTY, isn't she relevant again only because she got a gig on FOX's "24"?
bucket mouth
April 18, 2009 - 08:36 ET by windowsxpI am hoping fox takes a second look at what they have hired. How can anyone watch this show . They were terrorist remarks that have no place in our society. turn it off. boycott it and lets put her and a few others in their place. its one thing to mock us all . Call us filthy names in a public forum. whats wrong with a class action suit. im not a red neck or a tea bagger. thats defamation of my character and yours. she has become a wreck looking for a train. . I wouldnt give her a ride on a fender.Her demeanor is absolutely arrogant. her mouth is filthy. what is there to like or watch.I wonder if she knows how ugly she really is. The silent majority should boycott her tv program until she is fired. filthy dirty mouthed coward to say these things. now ill tell you how i really feel lol.
Garoafalo a Hot Zone of her own
April 17, 2009 - 20:49 ET by slickwillie2001I suggest that Garoafolo is only 'hot' in the sense that the CDC uses the word.
She's pathologically unstable. And NBC has deteriorated ... .
April 17, 2009 - 20:50 ET by CKA in Red State USA. . .fully into an anti-American, anti-conservative, anti-anthing-not-liberal-or-leftist cesspool.
But until we press their advertisers, NBC will do nothing to change.
It's about the money, folks. It's got nothing to do with intellectual honesty, fairness, whatever.
Disgusting Display by Olbermann and Garofalo
April 17, 2009 - 21:30 ET by DerRickI knew this sort of thing would happen. The Far Lefties were profane and vulgar when out of power; now when they are in power they are even worse. This intolerant rant by Garofalo and Olbermann will hopefully get a lot of play, so that everyone who voted for Obama and everyone who sat on the sidelines during the election will see exactly what the Far Left is made of. It is not tolerant, it is not compassionate, and it is not to be trusted with public office. They will only try to stifle public dissent and try to force their viewpoint on everyone who disagrees with them.
This is sickening and revolting.
Isn't it amazing that these
April 17, 2009 - 21:40 ET by GregorovitchIsn't it amazing that these females such as Garofalo and Susan from CNN would know so much about "teabagging". I wonder if they learned about this from their fathers?
How sad that any network would hire these types of people unless they are also "experts".

Nothing new here.
April 17, 2009 - 22:57 ET by GregENothing new here. Disagree with Obama's views and you're racist. Liberals grabbed black people years ago, so they have to make sure to bring up these things to keep that pandering going. Doesn't matter whether anything is true, false, neither, or whatever. It just has to be said, thats all, and the work is done til next time.

Straight from the DSM-IV
April 17, 2009 - 23:51 ET by Trix RabbitIt occurs to me that both Überdork and Gorilla suffer from a histrionic personality disorder, to wit:
(1) is uncomfortable in situations in which he or she is not the center of attention
(2) interaction with others is often characterized by inappropriate sexually seductive or provocative behavior
(3) displays rapidly shifting and shallow expression of emotions
(4) consistently uses physical appearance to draw attention to self
(5) has a style of speech that is excessively impressionistic and lacking in detail
(6) shows self-dramatization, theatricality, and exaggerated expression of emotion
(7) is suggestible, i.e., easily influenced by others or circumstances
As a cure, I propose that Überdork uses the government health care plan for his hysterectomy, and Gorilla should be gelded.
For the MSM: In your pomp and all your glory, you're a poorer man than me. As you lick the boots of death born out of fear.
Ian Anderson "Wind up"
She has narcissistic personality disorder
April 18, 2009 - 02:20 ET by snaggletoothieGarafalo probably suffers from narcissistic personality disorder. The extreme tattoos are a real give away. Because of the disorder she is incapable of clear reasoning about the world around her. She will tend to split the world up into her friends who are totally good and her enemies, the right wingers, who are infinitely evil. It is a little sad because she is doomed to see the world in this severely split way and will never be capable of seeing it as it is. She is doomed to always project her inner conflicts onto the outer world. She has manufactured a bunch of pseudo-intellectual rationalizations, such as seeing Stockholm syndrome and 'limbic brains' in numbers beyond what is warranted. And she goes from talk show to talk show trotting out these weak and misapplied rationalizations. I have quoted below some descriptive material about the disorder from http://www.peterfox.com.au/npd.htm: "Yet, contrary to what one would expect of this degree of self-absorption, these folk can have surprisingly little inner life and little autonomous self-worth. "Their facile self-esteem sounds conceited and noxious.
"As a consequence they are rarely satisfied with life's gifts - everyone else is to blame for the shortfall.
"Even without an identity or an inner life, there is still a signature bad temper - the narcissistic rage of frustrated entitlement. They can rage for weeks over a tiny mishap in their work, family or marital life.
. . . . . . . . .
"Denial of accountability drives their default position of me-me-me no-responsibility, I'm-right-you're-wrong to an extreme.
. . . . . .
"Those with NPD have a noxious self-esteem - taking the glory no matter what another's contribution to a shared task. "

April 18, 2009 - 04:36 ET by Andrew H.I think she says these kind of things just to piss off as many people as she can. Like the child who seeks attention in the worng way, here is Gerofalo speaking--as coherently as she can until it catches up to her and she can form no further semi-rational but incorrect thought and Keith must end it.
Liberalism is a convenient lie.
Yep...It's MSLSD Alright
April 18, 2009 - 09:21 ET by ConcernedOneIs there any point in watching this network? Here's your proof! NO
Garofalo clearly shows how small minded and pea-brained she truly is and anyone else that follows her point-of-view, which of course includes Mr. Nod-yer-head-and-grunt Doberman.

April 18, 2009 - 09:53 ET by ArminiusWhy does Janeane Garofalo always look as if she has just finished working at the fry cook at a greasy spoon for eight hours? There's enough oil on that lib's forehead to heat a small town for at least a week. You think with the money she makes she could afford a few items for personal hygiene.
