Let's be very honest about what this is about. This is 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. It's about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up...
And now we have the 2003 Janeane Garofalo on the subject of dissent (update at end of post includes partial transcript and context of her remarks):
There has been so many inappropriate responses to dissent which is the most patriot thing you can do and the First Amendment guarantees everyone's right to speak out.
What was that again about "inappropriate responses to dissent," Janeane? Speaking of which, let us now jump 6 years into the future to the 2009 Garofalo:
The limbic brain inside a rightwinger or Republican or conservative or your average white power activist is much larger in their head space than in a reasonable person and its pushing against the frontal lobe so their synapsis are misfiring.
Of course, the 2009 Garofalo is again contradicted by the 2003 Garofalo:
Like I said, it's very Archie Bunker, anti-intellectual, unfair way to treat dissent.
...I'm in favor of any citizen talking if they want to. I'm in favor of any citizen talking if they want to.
The hypocritical Janeane Garofalo is also the lying Garofalo (or at least unaware of what is real and what is not). Here is what she said about working on the set of "24."
When Rush Limbaugh visited the set, and when Lynne Cheney visited the set, I refused to have my picture taken with them or meet them or anything.
This claim elicited a reaction from Rush Limbaugh which he sent to the Radio Equalizer:
After having seen this piece, Limbaugh emailed your Radio Equalizer late Friday evening with this reaction: "The last time I visited the set of 24, Garofalo had not been hired to appear in the series. She was not there, she was not a member of the cast the last time I visited. I wouldn't have wanted to meet her anyway.
"The last time I visited the set, Kim Raver was still in the cast and CTU was the primary "location" of the show. This current season, seven, has been in the can since last summer or fall and I have been nowhere near the 24 set for any shoots for this season, which is this lunatic's first season," Limbaugh added.
Did Garofalo make up her story about Limbaugh visiting the set during her stint as a member of the cast?
Apparently the answer to that question is a resounding YES.
Updated by Noel Sheppard, 8:34 PM: Garofalo's 2003 statements came a day after actor Johnny Depp made some anti-American remarks to a German magazine. As reported by Reuters:
Hollywood star Johnny Depp said on Wednesday the United States was a stupid, aggressive puppy and he would not live there until the political climate changed.
The 40-year-old actor, who stars in the "Pirates of the Caribbean," told the German news magazine Stern he was happier staying in the south of France with his wife, the French actress and singer Vanessa Paradis, and their two children.
"America is dumb, it's like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you, aggressive," he said.
"My daughter is four, my boy is one. I'd like them to see America as a toy, a broken toy. Investigate it a little, check it out, get this feeling and then get out," said the star of the off-beat films "Edward Scissorhands" and "Dead Man."
Depp slammed George W. Bush's administration for its criticism of French opposition to the U.S.-led war in Iraq.
"I was ecstatic they re-named 'French Fries' as 'Freedom Fries'. Grown men and women in positions of power in the U.S. government showing themselves as idiots," he told Stern.
His comments stirred a lot of anger in America at the time, leading Garofalo to defend him on the September 4, 2003, installment of "Countdown":
There has been so many inappropriate responses to dissent, which is the most patriotic thing you can do. And the First Amendment guarantees everyone's right to speak out. The pillorying that was endured by the Dixie Chicks and Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins and now Johnny Depp is absurd. And, again, it is promulgated by the kind of Archie Bunker mentality that dominates the right wing of the Republican Party and also right-wing radio and some of the faux populist right-wing cable news shows.
Like, Joe Scarborough, for example, pretends that he is real upset about this Johnny Depp thing. It is just -- it's not news and it is not particularly intellectual. And there's nobody that's really upset about it. Johnny Depp has every right to say whatever he wants. And that's a rather moderate thing to say about the puppy. There is global distaste for the Bush doctrine. And there is a lot of domestic distaste for the Bush doctrine, for that matter. And nobody ever had a problem with bashing the Clintons, which was like a national pastime.
So this pretend partisan pseudo-patriotism is inappropriate. And people call it a backlash, but it's not. It was an attack, what happened to the Dixie Chicks. And it is -- like I said, it's very Archie Bunker, anti-intellectual, unfair way to treat dissent.
As such, to Garofalo, it is patriotic when actors and musicians bash a Republican president and his policies. It was even a national pastime in her words to bash the Clintons. BUT, when average Americans protest a black president and his policies, they're racists and teabagging rednecks. Any questions?

Wiki Page updated with this ;)
April 19, 2009 - 15:09 ET by SgtCheeseNOLSI am considered an "established user" on Wikipedia, and decided to use my powers to update her page. This is what I posted:
"Another controversy was one during the TEA Parties (Taxed Enough
Already) where she openly expressed on the Keith Olbermann show that
all the protesters were "white-supremacists" and "racists." One
hypocritical point that was brought up about this was how in 2003 she
openly expressed to the public on another television show that all
people should be allowed to express dissent. It is a "fundamental
American right of the First Amendment" as she put it. A video link to
more of this can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxP9ZHz4FQs&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fnewsbusters.org%2F&feature=player_embedded"
Let's just see how long that stays up before she sees it. She is actually linked to be updated on any changes of her wiki page...so I expect it to be gone by the end of the day :(

She is not only a clueless individual, she cannot act. She is one reason that this year's "24" is not on par with the others. Whoever thought that she would make a good addtion to the cast had a brainfart the size of Topeka.

PJ - I posted Garafalo's Village Voice Interview yesterday
April 19, 2009 - 17:04 ET by Rush Fanhere. Garafalo came across in that interview as someone so important that Rush Limbaugh and Lynne Cheney would be disappointed if they didn't meet her.
PJ - Are you certain you are correct in your facts about Jeanne Garafalo lying? I'm somewhat skeptical about your information, for I'm extremely surprised that she would tell a lie. Jeanne Garafalo is a Liberal. Now I could be wrong about this, but I have always believed that Liberals were honest and truthful. Now I got the information that Liberals were honest and truthful from the mainstream (old) media, but I have faith that the news media would not tell a lie. I'm so confused!
I guess Rush is correct when he says: “The media is a disgrace. You have forfeited any notion that you once had of respect”

Hypocracy
April 19, 2009 - 18:32 ET by Mike SThere is no hypocracy here in the mind of Janeane Garofalo. Dissent is fine and patriotic AS LONG AS YOUR MOTIVES ARE PURE. Unfortunately for conservatives, Janeane Garofalo is the judge of motive, and you sir are a racist!
Why bother even responding
April 19, 2009 - 18:32 ET by SmartypantsWhy bother even responding to what this brain-dead individual has to say? There reaches a point where it is absurd to try to reason with someone who has lost control of his or her faculties. This is obviously the case with this woman.
She is wholeheartedly against everything "24" represents, yet jumps at a chance to work on the show in an instant, and sees no contradiction in the process. She calls a bunch of people who she has never met, racists and "rednecks" while stating that the right has no tolerance for those that differ from them, and sees no contradiction in the process. She says everyone has a right to speak their mind but openly demands that certain groups be silenced, and sees no contradiction in the process.
This woman is completely irrational and unhinged, and certainly would get nowhere near a camera if the political left did not control most of the media. Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin et al make more sense in about five minutes on the air than Garofalo has made in her entire life.
The most successful war America has ever waged is quickly becoming President Obama's war on capitalism.

I'm glad Rush did this ahead of tomorrow as he had to be furious...but it gives him time to decide completely how to handle this...he rarely lowers himself to respond to these rants from the looney-left, especially Olbie and his show...I hope he does as such tomorrow...I'm sure he will mention he stands by his statement he put out, explain it all to those that know nothing about this, and move on to the detriment this so-called Prez we have now has put this country in...especially those who work behind the scenes...and like Hayden said this morning in Fox, there is more to come, and the people working in the CIA are very skeptical now of doing some of these jobs...
..of course that is the intention the left wants...along with the destruction of the Bush administration and the great job the military did to win...and win they did.
Now we are screwed...along with a lot of people we gave freedom to in two countries.

Typical of liberals. The Do as I say, Not as I do mentality. For them, it's okay to speak out against Republicans - it's their First Amendment right (and I'll admit that it is).
But it's not okay for conservatives to speak out against Democrats. That, suddenly, is not our First Amendment right. It's bigotry, hatred, stupidity, ignorance...whatever pejorative they can think of (or make up) today.
And then they wonder why we get upset...why we protest.

Tea Parties
April 19, 2009 - 20:18 ET by iveseenitallI have attended two Tea Parties here in Florida.I heard no racist remarks. Obama's name was hardly ever mentioned, except in the context of his policies. The signs which mentioned his name did so in the context of his policies. The people, thousands of them, were respectful. The people were of all races. One of the speakers was a black man. Families were there. Veterans were there. Intelligent, highly educated, people spoke at the mike.
I repeat, I was there. Garafolo is a hater and a liar. Olbermann is a hater and a liar. So many in news media are left-wing liars who live in their own biased fantasy world. If anthing, their reaction to the Tea Parties simply exposes them for what they are. Moreover, their reactions are just serving to divide the nation even further than it already is. How sad.

April 19, 2009 - 22:13 ET by balboaIt's very interesting how the arguments have switched sides of the aisle now. During Bush, those who spoke out against the war were unpatriotic, hurtful, etc. Now dissent is seen by Hannity et al as the most American thing you can do. Lefties during Bush said dissent was patriotic, and are now saying the right's protesters are hurtful.
Unpatriotic
April 19, 2009 - 22:18 ET by AFCloneWhen you protest against the war, you protest against the soldiers.
And don't "support the soldiers, but not the war" with me. It would be like me saying "I support the doctors who commit abortions, but not the abortions". Or "I support the gangstas, but not the shooting". Or "I support Congress but I don't support the bailouts". Etc, etc.

When a war is fought that liberals do not approve of, the liberals seek to harm the soldiers fighting it.
That is because the conservattives know the soldiers fighting these wars because they are us. Liberals do not know them, nor do they approve of them in the first place. THey see he army as it is, a vast conservative bastion.

April 19, 2009 - 22:45 ET by dborschjr68Thank you for serving this nation of ours.
I must agree with balboa, however. Protesting the actions of someone is not protesting that someone specifically.
In Christianity, there is a saying that goes, "Hate the sin, not the sinner". (If you are a believer, I say this not to patronize you.) And I'm not calling the military "sinners", so let's not go there. It was a saying I wrote down one day.
So yes, I myself, (and I am not in the majority of Conservatives here), fully support the military and their families. I do not support what we are doing overseas, however.
Does this make me less than patriotic?
And I feel for you in that you were verbally assaulted during that particular Memorial Day parade. My father was egged when he came home from the 'Nam, and I had animal blood thrown on me at La Guardia (sp?) Airport in the 90's.

April 20, 2009 - 16:59 ET by Noel Sheppardbal,
You're either being intentionally provocative or uncharacteristically obtuse.
You really don't see a difference between protesting a war where American lives are at stake and demonstrating against government spending and taxation? Which do you think occurred on this continent first?
Besides that, folks on the right and many on the left are offended by antiwar protests because they are either ex-military or have friends and/or family members currently risking their lives. We now know with certainty that Uncle Ho used antiwar sentiment to defeat us in Vietnam. We know Saddam used such in '03, and al Qaeda is using it as well.
With this in mind, the anti-antiwar crowd views such dissent as emboldening the enemy and putting American lives at risk. THAT'S what is seen as un-American and un-patriotic, bal, NOT the protest itself.
By contrast, can you tell me what American lives were endangered or enemies emboldened by the Tea Parties? Who are the anti-Tea Party crowd trying to protect? Isn't it really just Obama and the current government that their trying to protect, as opposed to the anti-antiwar crowd who are trying to protect American soldiers? Don't you see a difference?
Furthermore, would you agree that there is far more hatred spewed towards America during antiwar protests than what you saw at the Tea Parties? You didn't see any American flags burned at these Parties, did you? Or effigies of Obama burned, hung, or beaten in the street? Or Biden? Hmmm? But you do see that at antiwar rallies, don't you?
Honestly, if you can't see the difference in the behavior on display last Wednesday versus the anti-Americanism common at antiwar rallies, you need either see an optometrist or a psychiatrist. ns
Thank you Mr. Sheppard.
April 20, 2009 - 22:37 ET by JWFThe antiwar protests give comfort to the enemy when we are in the thick of the fight.
One point. I am retired military. Technically I am on inactive reserve. That is why Uncle Sam sends me a check every month. I will slide from one inactive reserve category to the next. There is the first category for 5 years after I retire. Then another category until I turn 65. Then a category after 65 until death. And a final category after death where they pump the black plague into my body and catapult it over the castle walls to sicken teh enemies.

Very interesting but stupid
April 20, 2009 - 03:04 ET by bknownstIsn't it interesting how Jannine Crapaload and the libs all know what "teabagging" is. Normal people never heard of it but the libs live it so they all seem to know about it.
The thing people have to understand about liberals is they live in a reverse universe. In the pea brains of these poor souls Left is always Right, Right is always Wrong, and anything dispicable they think, say and do, they will claim conservatives are guilty of because they do - it everybody else must. People on the left just never grew up. Remember as a 5 year old When some kid called you something not nice and you replied "I know you are but what am I?" that a is why Liberals are all "Stuck on Stupid" to quote Rush Limbaugh. So just "pitty the fools".
They could grow up some day. I used to be a liberal but I grew out of it and a few of them might.

April 20, 2009 - 15:10 ET by NorthCoasterI'm not a shrinking violet, but I too had to ask what "teabagging" was.

April 20, 2009 - 06:11 ET by KC BeachWhen I heard this sorry excuse for a human being was going to be on 24 I made the decision to not watch again until she is killed off or written out of the show, and I let the network know I would no longer tune in, and why.
don't cha know...
April 20, 2009 - 06:40 ET by AJBTrailer trash is trailer trash. She can try to glamorize her name by misspelling (wouldn't a name like Roxanne be more appropriate?). She can try to be an erudite scholar and expound on the politics of our time. She can try to get a following like Limbaugh or Hannity. Or she can just be trailer trash.
This woman is such a goober...
April 20, 2009 - 07:29 ET by ThalpyThis woman is such a goober. This whole issue has nothing to do with racism--nor does much of anything else, for that matter. The issue is that many of us are sick and tired of our press and modestly talented pundits trying to cram a socialist world view with its social justice mythology down our throats. We are not the same. None of us has the same talents or motivations. Despite what the loons from the women's studies programs suggest, we come pre-wired to a great extent and gender is NOT a construct to be chosen.
When the CBC made their trip to Cuba to tour paradise, did they even meet one Cuban of black ancestry, No? The answer is no because they were too busy kissing the behind of one of the most oppressive despots in all of history. It is the CBC that is racist! Garofalo and her mindless legion of "stars" weaken our civilization by using their wealth and celebrity to perpetuate their pipe dreams.
Fear does that to you

You are correct, but the left must use the harshest ridicule they think they possess. They believe wrongly I should add that they own the racism issue, so when they get really scared they throw it up in the air, and hope the wind does not throw their hypocrisy back in their face. Witch almost always happens.
This woman (just guessing really) is a walking mental disorder, you really have to start wondering about the faculties of those that listen and believe her as well.

Who cares
April 20, 2009 - 07:31 ET by Magic2171I am sorry but why should I/we care what at best is a third rate actress/comic comments? She has no logic, no knowledge and very little understanding of todays world. No one with a brain is influanced by her (so called) thoughts and no one could be stupid enough to believe her. She goes on third rate shows and makes these comments to remind herself and the world that she is still alive. I am sure when she is quoted like this she believes she is actully relavent to the world today, obviouly another of her delutions.
I refuse to even discuss that hypocritical, lying, human waste begining wit an "O", not the current president, but the discription does apply well.

Who cares about Garofolo
April 20, 2009 - 11:33 ET by TheGingermanWho cares about Garofolo seriously? When was the last time she did anything? Last decade?
Shouldn't we focus on people that actually have some sort of influence?
What's next? An article about Pauly Shore's anti-Bush stance?
WHO CARES?
Hopefully Rush gets slammed AGAIN
April 20, 2009 - 14:59 ET by chronicIt has been a long time since I've seen anything better on the Rush show than when a listener called in to blast Rush on his stance on torture. The guy calling was a veteran and made good points, like it makes our troops less safe and we are not Nazi Germany. He completelly slammed Rush and all rush could do was call the guy an idiot and balme people like him for brrack winning the election. Rush sounded like his usual no-brain self and could only sling back attacks and resort to name-calling. If he had an argument he failed to make one for his side.
Calling a veteran an idoit, who has no idea about tortoure. Good move Rush, way to support the troops.
F*@k Rush
