OMG janeane garofalo joins 24 cast!!! (which is kinda weird, seeing as how joel surnow is all buddybuddy with rush limbaugh and everything... maybe he thought that the show needed an injection of early nineties-style irony and sarcasm?)
Gee, this might actually get me to start watching again.

And the wingnuts are outraged.

of course the wingnuts are outraged - they're a bunch of reactionary dumbasses! anyone who's watched the show for more than a few seasons will tell you that systems analysts and the like usually last a little bit longer than spinal tap drummers. maybe surnow is throwing a bone to the frothing neocon contingent.

if janeane makes her first appearance on 24 wearing a red shirt, we'll know for sure if that's the case.

She'll be put in some situation in which she can either buy off on ripping some guy's fingernails out, or risk failing to retrieve the information he has about a plot going down right now.

She'll not approve the torture, a LOT of innocent children and one puppy will die, and she'll have all that blood on her hands.

You read it here first.

That's a little like David Cross joining the cast of Blue Collar TV. Is Joel Surnow a Scientologist, or something?

I love that this:
Well, screw that. “24″ became a hit because it’s a rare escape from politically correct moonbattery.
is on the same page as this:
WTF!!!! First we here that the global warming fraud is going to be introduced into the mix, now it’s Janeane Garofalo

I think that explains alot.

If the rumor is true that the Church of Scientology got its hooks into her, then who knows what to expect from her now?

If the dumbasses have heard her segments on the Rollins Show it's no wonder the morons are pissed off. Somehow I really doubt she's into Scientology, but I have no info or proof.

She'll be the hot girl's ugly friend, who will pine after Jack, right?

Janeane (who is an atheist) makes it very clear that she is supportive only of the Detoxification Project but in no way supports Scientology and states that she thinks it's as much fantasy-based as any other religion such as Christianity, but if the Detox Project is helping the 1st responders, who cares who's funding it.
