This is some of the ugliest, nastiest exchanges I have ever witnessed on any of the News-Opiniontainment shows. Keith Olbermann and Janine Gerofalo were absolutely disgusting in this segment!

I guess this kind of garbage and vitriol is to be expected from these knobs. I wasn’t able to make my Charlotte Tea Party because of a commitment, but I am sure The Arch City Madman is none too pleased with being called a dumbed-down, stupid, redneck racist, and tool of a corporate America and Fox News white power conspiracy. Good grief!
Here is what Lou Dobbs had to say about it, after being called out.
MON DIEU!
UPDATE: A Response from a Tea Partier
I found this at Michelle’s site. Meet Katrina Pierson:
- Economic Crisis of Confidence - February 8th, 2010
- Cato Analysis and Fact Check of SOTU Speech - January 28th, 2010
- State of the Union Déjà vu? - January 26th, 2010
- Purple Predestination - January 25th, 2010
- Prince Composes New Vikings Fight Song (Oh Yes He Did!) - January 22nd, 2010
Katrina Pierson for president!!!
“Thems alot o’ big words miss garafalo is using”. Too bad she can’t back them up with facts. As a physician I can assure you the limbic system is no larger in those of us at the tea party than those she may entertain. Everyone I met remembered the fact that congress has been contrlled since 2006 elections by DEMOCRATS. Together with the Bush administration they lead the country to this point. They also correctly stated positions held by credible economist that understand spending is not how you get out of debt. I was also struck by the comments made by several of the folks regarding the small tax break we may enjoy now will morph into an incredible tax burden from hidden taxes such as increased costs of goods due to “cap and trade” or “card check policies”. Keith and Jeneane should not make the mistake of assuming that everyone that disagrees with them is wrong.
Well said, Stephen!
How many people saw this coming if Obama was elected? I sure did! This is exactly what I knew what would happen. Anyone who disagrees with the policies of President Obama is immediately deemed a racist. This is dispicable, but was completely predictable.
This Janeane Gaffalo needs to be BOYCOTTED. First we should stand up against Gaffalos’ actions for the mere unfactual remarks that she made by calling the American citizens as RACISTS. She is Anti-American and Anti-God. I feel like I have been slandered with being referred to as a Tea Bagger! I had to look that hollywood sexual term up and I was very OFFENDED! We could create a class action lawsuit against Gaffalo case WE THE PEOPLE VS JANEANE GAFFALO in a deflamation suit. If we really want to tone down these liberal self-proclaimed activists that DONT live in the real world then DONT buy or rent their movies, DONT go to their concerts, DONT buy their books and above all DONT buy any product/products that promote their names or images. Soon people like Gaffalo will be asking for a bailout from the American people when SHE is out of work.
DONT BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU, GAFFALO!
I really enjoyed the inspiring speech by Katrina Pierson at the Dallas Tea Party! I bet if you opened the viens of that wonderful woman then it would pour rich Partriotic All-American blood!
There is no hiding who she is! Thank you! God bless America and God bless Ms. Pierson!
My husband and I were appalled when we heard that disgusting piece of diatribe that some would describe as a conversation between Garafalo and Oberman. Apparently, neither of them have the vaguest idea of why the tea parties were held or who the people were who attended. To be called a racist was especially offensive to us. Our family is a mix of many races – Chinese, Hawaiian, Filipino, White, Native American and Hispanic. We live in the beautiful state of Hawaii and enjoy a blending of cultures and races unknown to most any other place. And yet, one thousand people took off work and showed up to demonstrate at the State Capital. That may not seem like many but it is in a small city like Honolulu and in a state that rarely disagrees with or demonstrates against the political leadership. To be called racist redneck teabaggers (which I just found out was a pornographic reference) is absolutely ludicrous. Our demonstration consisted of a rainbow of patriotic Americans trying to save our country from a doomed future if we continue down the current path.
May be off base, but I was wondering in between her acting/comedy work, movies, tv, just where did she learn the in’s and out’s of the brain??? I’ve gone through numerous CAT scans, etc. looking for migraines, damage from a wreck, etc., and I’ve never heard of what she’s talking about. I do believe that she was just trying to be smart. Be a actress.
Amen, Anne!!
Janeane Garofalo is just another arrogant elistist frustrated actress who’s spent too much time in Hollywood and New York——She thinks the world revolves around those limosine liberals she hangs with.
Gerofalo is simply a self-appointed spokesman (I’d say spokes’person’ but I not really sure of her actual gender given her bullying personality) of the extreme left. The left, who are for the empowerment of women (as long as they are not Sara Palin) and blacks (as long as they’re not Clarence Thomas or Condeleeza Rice).
She’s the poster girl for the extremist,intolerant, bigoted left.
Nothing like a dope-smoking tattooed hollywood misfit to preach morality to the rest of us.
As for as racism goes—I’ve never seen more focus on race than since the Obama Liberals came to power—–few people can outracist a liberal.
Garofalo is an arrogant idiot. She is a legend in her own mind. It’s laughable that she thinks anyone other than her liberal, leftist, fanatic friends are even listening to her. It makes perfect sense that she is allowed to spew her hatred and ugliness with Olbermann. Who else would care. I’d love to see her go up against Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly or Glen Beck. They would chew her up and spit her out. Ya gotta love those Hollywood liberals. They marry and divorce with a speed that would make your head spin,cheat on their spouses, have children without benefit of marriage, women with women, men with men, abuse of drugs and alchohol, etc. She should stick to the third rate acting career to which she is highly overpaid and keep her opinions to herself. The revolution is coming Janine, whether you like it or not.
We’ve come unarmed…twice. Where is the limit? I personally do not believe Texas Seccession would be a good thing. I see it as an absolute last resort. The only question remaining is “what are our options and how many have been exhausted to no avail?” When does the last resort become the only remaining option. Personally, I think if Cap and Trade and “foot-in-the-door” socialized medicine are passed, we will have reached the breaking point. Any thoughts from rational thinkers? (Irrational ideologues need not bother responding. As soon as I see you irrationality, I will stop reading so don’t waste our time.)
Yeah, Janine gets air time and, after 2012, Obama will be just another third rate politician with a book deal. She’s just another has-been trying to gain relevance by being controversial…hey Janine…*yawn*…Wake up, America!…boycott Janine, boycott GM, boycott those who were bailed out with our money so that they could stay in business and then try to get us to give them more of our money by purchasing their godds/services…they don’t need my business if my tax dollars are propping them up…VOTE AGAINST EVERY INCUMBENT IN 2010 & 2012…if they won’t pass term limits, then WE THE PEOPLE will have to impose term limits at the ballot box.
