Nutty Janeane Garofalo Thinks There is Something Wrong With YOU

Normally I would do what every one else does and ignore the vapid eruptions of Janeane Garofalo. She is to politics what the San Diego chicken is to baseball -sometimes funny, usually annoying and completely unnecessary.

But now she has said something so outrageous she forces us to pay attention, if just to shake our heads, as we would to a kid throwingg a tantrum in a mall.

Janeane recently did an interview with Ecorazzi, an environmentalist celebrity blog.

Here's what she had to say about Conservatives and Ronald Reagan:

"Their policies have destroyed us and most of the world – that’s a fact not an opinion. Every single policy that “conservative republicans” have put forth since Reagan has destroyed us. And we affect most of the world, so why do they still get a say? That’s what blows my mind. It’s almost like self-flatulation or masochism in some way. We keep going to that portion. They are NEVER going to compromise. The thing is that the more you give in to something like that, the more they take advantage."

Okay, a few things Janeane. First, it's self-flaggelation. Self-flatuation is something completely different, but is a good way of describing your speaking style. Second, you are not real clear on the difference between fact and opinion. And finally, "every single policy put forth by Conservative Republicans have destroyed us?" Really. Well I don't think we have been "destroyed." In fact, I feel protected by some of those policies.

And then there is this -

"The reason a person is a conservative republican is because something is wrong with them. Again, that’s science – that’s neuroscience. You cannot be well adjusted, open-minded, pluralistic, enlightened and be a republican. It’s counter-intuitive. And they revel in their anti-intellectualism. They revel in their cruelty. First you have to be an asshole and then comes the conservatism. You gotta be a dick to cleave onto their ideology."

That is science? Really? I would love to see the data on that Janeane. And nice use of the obscenities, apparently there are words you know the usage of, even if I disagree.

Here's still more. The topic, Sarah Palin:

"She’s small-minded and mean-spirited. It has nothing to do with gender — I don’t give a shit about her gender — she is what the Republican Party has become: obstructionist, contrarians, small-minded, all of these things. She just happens to be attractive. There’s definitely something wrong with her. She’s lacking in so many areas. Of course she’s successful with a segment of the country because she represents that lesser segment of the country. It’s people’s lesser nature – their human frailty. You know whatever’s wrong with them is what she is about."

And then here she goes again delving into her vast knowledge of science to Sarah Palin.

"It really is neuroscience. I truly believe that it has something to do with their limbic brain. I really believe that some people’s limbic brain dominates more than others. Our limbic brain controls all our emotions and it causes us to be irrational. Our limbic brain goes into action when we’re ecstatic, frightened, when we’re having sex. I really believe that if a neuroscientist examined the brain of somebody who identified as a conservative, they would find it’s wired differently."

Wait, if neuroscientists examined? I thought this was fact. I love how she contradicts herself in just a few lines.

By the way, after reading this small-minded, mean, obscenity ladened rant would you say that Janeane Garofalo is "well adjusted, open-minded, pluralistic, enlightened"?

No, far from it. So by her own definition she must be a Conservative Republican. Sorry Janeane. We don't want you either.

I just love when these Hollywood dropouts try to sound smart and quote neuroscience
