Has Janeane Seen This?
by Alfonzo Rachel
–
Janeane Garafolo says the tea parties were a gathering of racists.
Strange, that these racists would welcome a black man to speak at their racist gathering at the state capital.
I wasn’t expecting to speak, I just went up to get some footage for PJTV, but the organizer of the Tea Party found out I was there, and requested I come up and say a few words. How racist!!!
If you’re a right winger and are tired of the media painting you as racist, spread this vid and watch the left downplay it and expose themselves even more as the true racists!
God bless, ya!

Nice speech, especially for being off the cuff. Very natural. Run for office man!
I wonder how many will default to the Uncle Oreo stance: a Black Man can not be a successful well spoken conservative with out becomming a race traitor.
Zo, you are quite simply the man.
I pray he does. I have already pledged him my last $0.47. But with the stimulus, i have an extra $6 a week.
Naw, see them there racist white folk just pat tha uncle tom with Stockholm Syndrome on tha head … dats all dat was.
(seriously though, wish I'd have been there)
Given your forum, you should have been stronger.
Woohoo! We love you, Zo!
Zo is a better man than the man Garafalo wishes she could be. Any day, any time, any subject, even racism.
Very cool, Zo…even with the camera shakin'…you're authentic and smooth…on the fly…nice. Thanks for being here, for being there, for being practically everywhere. Keep up the good work. God bless you my friend.
Oh JG will still call you a racist. But hey these new word definitions have special code meaning that only the haters on the left can define.
Great job, Zo. I can't imagine all the "Uncle Tom" emails this will get you, but just keep laughing at them — the truth is on your side.
Beautiful!
"The liberals, they want to take our country back. Back to where, back to Europe?"
The liberals here in San Diego would call you a "token minority." Thank you for your hard work and for calling out the real racists.
Here are the standard leftie reponses to expect:
1. One black man? LOL!
2. He's brainwashed by Rush Limbaugh.
3. He's an Uncle Tom, race traitor, oreo, house slave, token black, etc…i.e. your race has nothing to do with your genetics, but rather on how you vote.
4. He's lucky he made it out alive.
oh zo, the left is gonna use this as proof that you have sold out. keep selling, baby!
I like Zo. I dig what he says. He's always seems to be right on the money. However, I sometimes feel that his videos are a bit too long, but he's still on the money though…
Oh, they won't let a trivial thing like the color of your skin get in their way. You're still a racist, just a self-hating Uncle Tom, Stockhold Syndrome having racist. Because God knows they know what you think better than you do yourself.
God's blessings right back at you man, and keep fighting the good fight.
Right here on BIG HOLLYWOOD, Tom Shillue attempted a noble defense of Ms. Garofalo. I had no choice but to take him behind the woodshed for some corrective social instruction:
"Tom, I can only assume that you were recently transported from a mission in deep space …"
Yeah, the whole thing is here:

Alfonzo, you inspire me and entertain me, and I have thoroughly enjoyed everything you've posted here and on YouTube. Keep up the great work!
hey wait..she is not following the script either…get her a kool-aid injection..STAT!!!

You left sell-out off your list. …unless that can be lumped into number 3.
Awesome Zo!
You're missing the point. Jeanine understands more about being black than you could ever hope to. Seriously, how hard a concept is that to grasp? Liberals only care about your well-being. I just had one tell me the other day that being black was a disability that had to be overcome (so we should give them whatever they need to succeed).
I never realized that my seeing other races as being just like me only showed what a racist redneck I really was. Thanks for the heads-up, Jeanine.
A "right-winging woman" loving on another "right-wingin man!" Are you on Janet N.'s DHS list or what?
Hah, I ended up speaking at my tea-party, too. Some kids from my college were supposed to speak, but they never showed up. I didn't realize why they were asking for reps from my University and told them I went there. So they asked me to speak. I haven't done public speaking since Senior year HS. God, it even wound up on youtube, which was cool cause then my family got to see.
Nothing major, just spreading the hope that despite the bias, despite the profs, students are beginning to wake up to reality.
Oh yeah, inspirational as always Mr. Zo
You're just a dirty rotten Uncle Tom…
a left of center gujy speaks: teac parties? mostly white, for sure, and here and there an anti-Obama person of color. But you can count them on one hand. Were the tea party folks racist? perhaps some but I would say not, in general.
that said: the GOP should be concerned b ecAuse these were more libetarian than gop conservatives…and that is not going to help for elections. What were they griping about? no real message. some wanted smaller govt (so long as big govt gave them stuff); some wanted lowe4r taxes (but Obama is ging all but the walthy that), some wanted NO Bailout–but had no anser to economists who said over and over (left and right economists) that we allowed some entities to get too big and now we can not afford to have them fail…whwere were the party people when Bush made huge deficit? when Bush made the biggest govt we ever had?
Leftists love conservative minorities because they think they can really speak their minds about people of color then. That's when you see their true face. Because honestly, if they weren't racist, why is it that they have such an arsenal of hate words to throw at people like Michelle Malkin or Michael Steele? Why would they say those things to any person unless that's what's really in their hearts?
The only reason you don't see more minorities at tea parties is many of them haven't realized the tea parties are not political or right wing. They are about people being sick of the lies.
Great speech, don't know why Garofoho thinks you are a racist.
Being black is a disability that has to be overcome? Sounds to me like it's the equivalent of calling them 3/5 of a person. I wonder where they could have gotten an idea like that?
You the man Zo!!
Of course you do realize that lefty celebutards like Garafolo will just say that you're an uncle tom or as Garafolo actually said on El Douche's (Olbermann) show that you have Stockholm syndrome.
Nothing scares a liberal more than a minority conservative. Simple as that. That means race card arguments are done, and all that's left is ad hominem.
She used to be pretty.
Why did she get ugly?
God Bless you Zo – you're one of the bravest men out there.
The conservatives were sceaming bloody murder, where were you? We raised our voices against 'comprehensive immigartion reform', against the Bush/Kennedy Education bill. against Harriet Miers, against TARP 1, against Medicare prescription Drug Benefit,etc., etc.. Don't try to sell that booshwah that conservatives were silent during all of that. And let me ask you this, if the Republicans are hypocrites for protesting deficits now, aren't the Democrats equally guilty of hypocrisy for telling us that deficits no longer matter in a post 1/20/09 world?
spot on. The oreo thing (they threw oreos at Ken Blackwell and Michael Steele as well) will come out; it will be dismissed as anything Clarence Thomas does or says… you cannot be a person of color and not be a collectivist, plain and simple. Ideological divides will not be tolerated…
Not to take anything away from Alfonzo, but he was not the only black man to speak at a tea party event. Alan Keyes was the keynote speaker at the Pittsburgh Tea Party. I'm sure there were others besides.
(And I don't care whether you like Keyes or not. If you were going to pipe up about that, you're no different from your average liberal who can't follow an argument. The relevant fact here is that Alan Keyes is black.)
Truth be told, Blacks, Latinos, and Asians hold conservative views. I am not sure why people of color blindly support the democrats. They really don't care about us. They just need us to achieve and maintain power. The same could also be said about Republicans and the social conservatives.
But anyway, getting back to JG. She obviously holds a sterotypical view of black people much like a racist redneck.
Learn to spell and/or use spell check – your post is full of other errors too.
Zo, you are so happy. You must have deluded yourself somehow into thinking that white people don't hate you. Why aren't you angry at all the repression and racism? I mean, what is wrong with you that you are not outraged? Black folks should be pissed off and stay pissed off no matter what. It's your destiny. That is how we liberals think of you guys and we just can't tolerate that you aren't revolting against da Man. As a white liberal, I secretly wish I was black, then I could be really pissed off because all this stuff would be happening to ME and I could just lash out however I want. That'd be cool! You have no idea what opportunities you would have by getting in touch with your anger at racism, you are really missing out on some delicious outrage, man.

Zoooooooo!
I was there watching you making that impromptu speech to 10,000 people in SacTown. (Without a TelePrompter I might add.) When you were finished, I tried for over 30 minutes to find you in the crowd over by the PJTV truck, to have a photo taken with you and my little guys.
It was impossible to find you through that crowd.
Question: How was it possible to hide a black guy in the middle of all those white “racists”? Hmmmmmm?
I thought someone ate you or something. Glad to see that you made it out alive, with all those rabid racists surrounding you.
Not Over.
[...] Big Hollywood [...]
Love ya Alfonzo, and dittos to who stated you should run for office. We need more sensible conservatives like you to vote for.
Come on, Zo. Don't you understand that you're a self hating black man???
Bingo, buddy. Bingo
Democrats do not say deficits do not matter. What theyh are sayhing–economists from the right and the left –is that deficits are now necessary because only spending will get us out of this mess…tea party folks want what? more tax cuts? that has not worked.
My spelling etxc: sorry but I am a bit awkward at age 80…hope you do better when you get to that age.
You rock brother…keep the faith !!!!!!
He's got my multiple Diebold votes…
Sadly, if a black man agrees with anything anti-liberal, he is judged a "uncle tom." Wierd alternate reality where a person IS judged by their skin color AND beliefs.
Welcome to 1984.
BTW-Alonzon, I love your Youtube videos. Keep fighting the good fight.
Zo, saw you live in Sac. Well done.
Run, Zo, Run!! You really need to run for office.
I'm so tired of being called a racist when I am anything but. I responded to an Austin American Statesman letter to the editor questioning why their were no black people in the photos of our Austin Tea Party.
In response to Mr.Schwarz's Letter to the Editor questioning why he saw no black tea party protestors in the photos, the fact that over 90% of black voters voted for President Obama's vision of big government should be a huge clue why most did not join our anti-big government protest. I'm tired of being called a racist because I believe in a small and limited government. Insinuating that we are racists is a juvenile tactic aimed at lobbing insults without addressing the facts. However, please ask a black conservative how they are treated by both black and white liberals. They are condescendingly called Uncle Toms and/or victims of Stockholm Syndrome and ridiculed for their political ideology. You can't beat us into submission anymore by using the "R" word because we now know it's just the liberal's favorite argument to conservatives: "Shut Up!"
When you stack it up the Democratic Party’s positions on race relations are atrocious even when they are supposedly helping them. Want to confuse a democrat ask them how come HUD housing projects are not segregated. If they try to tell you only minorities are poor explain that according to the census welfare recipients are 40% white, 40% African American, and 20% Hispanic and other. Ask them why a HUD housing project is not forced to be Black White Black White Other. Listening to them give the reasons why this should not happen from violence to riots to whatever will be one of the funniest things you'll hear. Trust me though the liberal will never agree to simply apply the segregation.
If you want to keep racism alive and kickin' the simple formulae is "SEGREGATE THE POOR". That is the elitist liberal way of Plato's Chosen.
There are many libbies that wll make the argument that our Zo is brainwashed, influenced by the likes oif the followers of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. Hog wash!
If anything we are the ones influenced by him.
Godspeed Zo!
Which is a pretty good trade-off for a $13 trillion debt.
You're a national treasure, ZO!
I'll dimple a few for him as well.
TDW, thanks for the link! I am "just a mom" like the cute chick in the clip, and so I know she probably doesn't think she is important, but she is! I get credibility from some people now, for owning several businesses. Why wasn't I credible, before? This country needs to listen to the people who raise the next generation a little more.
Funny how I haven't seen much in the way of pictures coming from the T party in Atlanta. I saw quite a many ppl of all ethniticities there. True, it was mostly white, but there were plenty of Latinos, and Blacks, too. The crowd was HUGE! There were people lined up for 5 blocks, and well over 20 thousand, no matter what the media says.Oh yeah, ZO ROCKS!
Zo, I wish I could say something clever here, but words escape me, except for these:
I love you, man!
Fred, I appreciate you're 80 years of experience on this Earth. My dad lived to be 85 and, though I didn't always appreciate it, the fact was his life experience made him a pretty smart guy.
I'm hoping the old saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" won't apply here.
You do not use the word "all" but you imply it when you write "economists from the right and the left [say]… only spending will get us out of this mess". That's just not true. There are many economists who are yelling at the top of their lungs just the opposite. Please watch Rick Santelli from CNBC at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zp-Jw-5Kx8k .
I have some homework for you.
Tea Party folks are absolutely opposed to more deficit spending. In Obama's first 30 days as President spending -tripled- what Bush spent in 8 years. Please visit http://aissuesproject.blip.tv/file/1793461/ for a commercial by AmericanIssuesProject.Org that is an eye-opening illustration of this fact. Basically, if you spent one million dollars a day every day since Jesus was born, you'd still would have spent less than congress just did.
To learn how tax cuts have resulted in –more– money going into the federal governmet, please go to the US Treasury web site and read the fact sheet at http://www.ustreas.gov/education/fact-sheets/taxe... to see how the The Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981 (a.k.a. "Reagan Tax Cuts") pulled the economy out of double digit inflation, high interest rates and high unemployment. It's a complete US tax history overview so It's long but focus on "Developments after World War II" and "The Reagan tax Cut".
Another good reference is an April 1996 report written by the House Joint Economic Committee found here:
http://www.house.gov/jec/fiscal/tx-grwth/reagtxct...
which concludes with "The Reagan tax cuts, like similar measures enacted in the 1920s and 1960s, showed that reducing excessive tax rates stimulates growth, reduces tax avoidance, and can increase the amount and share of tax payments generated by the rich. High top tax rates can induce counterproductive behavior and suppress revenues…"
Even Bill Clinton's Council of Economic Advisers in 1994 said: "It is undeniable that the sharp reduction in taxes in the early 1980s was a strong impetus to economic growth. "
Tax cuts down to a point (28% top rate in 1988) ALONG WITH a reduction in spending do indeed work.
Whoo! Gooo ZO! Loved the "crying like a little kid with a skinned knee" comment.
And we were so racist in Austin, TX that a magnificent speaker who will be running for Kay Bailey Hutchison Senate seat in 2010 was invited to speak – his name is Michael Williams. http://www.williamsfortexas.com/
And in San Antonio (*I went to TWO tea parties in one day!) we were so racist that we had a 38 year Columbian immigrant named Katharine Moreno speak to the 20,000 in attendance. She was one of the most intelligent, engaging and inspirational speakers I have ever heard.
Janeane needs to shut her pie hole.
if you're black or spanish or whatever race, the left doesnt acknowledge you exist. To me thats racist. They dont get it, they never will.
Its the same as when the left said the GOP conventions were nothing but white faces…They didnt see anyone else because they didnt want to.
Zo vs. Garofalo…let the feud begin. You hear that Bill Maher, there's a gasp black conservative that has Janeane in his sites, if she doesn't step up then she's admitting she's wrong. Would you put them on a panel together on your show? It would be great TV!
Zo, God Bless ya…you are The Man!
If people who were actually elected to lead us thought as clearly and spoke as eloquently and succinctly as you do, we'd be in far better shape as both a nation and a people.
Okay, I am just going to ask it:
Who else would like to see a Zo/Crowder ticket in 2012?!?!
ZO! ZO! ZO!
Give’em Hell Zo!
I'll be sure to send this around to people. I know some libs won't listen or believe it but just the same it's fun to watch em squirm and try not to hurt themselves backpeddling so fast.
Also… "…I don't have a teleprompter…" ROFLMAO

That was excellent. Keep up the great work.
I got an answer that Ronnuy somehow gave us a great economy! and that many economists dislike heavy spending. I will thus stick with the nobelo economists, Krugman and Steiglitz, who maintain that not spending will not do anything. Tax cuts have been tried. they have not worked.
As for racism:" I am convinced that most tea party folks are not racists, but the conservative movement is not managing to attract people of color and immigrants to their roles, and, politically, this is not very good for that party.
At our tea party, a young black marine told the crowd, "I suspect you'll be surprised to know I'm a white supremest".Howls of laughter and wild applause. It was the day Janet's (can't spell her last name; not interested in learning) issued a warning about Vets being racists and right wing wackos.
Frankly, I think middle class blacks are in a difficult position. Like most of us before we caught on to the media being just the Mouthpiece of the Democratic Party, they believe what they read in the various news outlets. I've thought for a long time that Middle Class blacks are afraid if they leave the liberal plantation, they won't be welcome in white society. Their history is one of not trusting us and the Lefties have played on that like a double stringed harp. Plus, they see what is done to those who stray off the liberal plantation by their fellow blacks (Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton) and by the mainly white media (the treatment of Clarence Thomas, Condoleeza Rice).
By the way, is there some relation between the name "Janet" and a visceral distrust of fellow Americans (Remember Reno?). Just askin
They'd have my vote, that's for sure!
Maybe your attention span is just too short………
you are absoluteley correct in your assetion; minorities exist for two reasons- one they are easy to control, just throw money and cheap drugs at them, and two, collectivist policies need a core constituency. So, it's better to keep them poor and stacked on top of each other with easy access to meth or crack because that way you have a reliable Democratic district rather that preach individual responsibility and complete equality with a shred stake in the American dream. Nothing is more 'racist' than that…
In Jackson, Mississippi the opening speaker at our Tea Party was black. Two of our seven speakers were black and got the best response of any of the speakers from the "racist" audience.
Pretty is and pretty does….
Three words: Token Black Guy
I feel sorry for you.
Take your racism elsewhere.
Zo, I appreciate the courage that you have to simply be yourself.
I think that a lot of people here have touched on something about liberals that I find disturbing and I really don't understand it. Why must I have a quota system for my friends? How did America get to this point? I have actually had a liberal try to "expose" me by making a point of introducing me to gay people, and explaining that I taught Sunday school. As if I were some kind of mutant, and I wouldn't like these people once I found out they were not exactly like me. What do these people have against individuals? Why can't a black, gay, hispanic man/woman want less taxes?
Give this guy some credit for having brains of his own, to be able to make choices of his own. Why must you lefties always denigrate people with whom you don't agree.
When you learn to type and use proper English, I am sure we will attempt to decipher your gibberish a bit further. Communication skill; Get some!
Yes, of course you're not denigrating Garofalo here bc you don't agree with her. Right, but it's me…
He can have all the credit he wants. I just think he's a giant too.
Amen to that Melana. Most people of color believe in a strong family, are not for gay marriage and support the military (and love America) in large numbers as well as believe in hard work.
The part of Texas I'm from has been voting Democrat for at least 50 yrs and I can't really say that things have improved for people much down there. Anyone wanting to make a better life for themselves leaves that area and never goes back.
GW called it right…the soft racism of low expectations by many libs has kept minorities down.
Zo we need you to run for Congress- you could raise millions all across the country. Find a district with a GOP tilt and go for it!!
Wow how profound…
We are ridiculing her lack of thought process. So minorities can't think for themselves? They can't have diverse opinions on things just like lighter-skinned folks? People can't be angry because they feel their government has long ago stopped listening to them and it's simple racism? To me, this is the gist of her argument and if she's saying these things about Zo then to me that shows her racism.

Saw you here in Sacto, Zo! Love you and thank you for agreeing to speak at the last minute. I told a couple ladies I was standing with where they could find you on the web as they'd never seen your videos or read BigHollywood. Anyway, as we've been saying all along, this is not a Red/Blue, White/Black issue – it is a Right/Wrong issue. You made the point beautifully. And to all those who would lump you in as a mindless, Stockholm Syndrome victim, pull from Gary Graham and just say, "FTS!". ;0)

Alfonzo, you do a bang up job. I'm wish more of America would see you and Steven Crowder and realize that conservative views don't all come from drooling droids. It's also fun to watch liberals that I have encountered, who do mean well, say stupid things like "We are better than them" (terrorists) and "He speaks well for a black man"
