Sure, the Divine Miss M hits similar topics via Twitter, but she doesn't mind reaching back into history to smite the GOP from a different angle.

This week, Midler revisited World War II with a tweet claiming the GOP wanted America to lose in its fight against the Axis powers.

.@GOP treats Mr. Obama the way they treated FDR in WWII. They did everything they could to ensure an Allied loss.

There's a method to Midler's social media madness--she's trying to prop up President Barack Obama. The failing, flailing president blames everyone else for a stalled economy and a host of "phony" scandals, and she's only too eager to do the same.

“Bette has never been known as an intellectual. Does anyone now know why?”

She was raised in the slums of Kalihi in Honolulu.

".@GOP treats Mr. Obama the way they treated FDR in WWII. They did everything they could to ensure an Allied loss."

The Republican Party could have made Pearl Harbor the defining issue of the 1944 Presidential election. Rightly, they chose not to. But then I wouldn't expect a historical expert like Bette Midler to know that.

Nah, if there had been Democrats at Thermopylae, I think they would have supported the Persians. In “The 300,” did you notice how Xerxes vaguely resembled Obama?

[Berosus]

I never liked Bette, now I know why.

[Berosus]

Or that Dr. Martin Luther King was a Republican.

[Political Junkie Too]

Yes, the GOP wanted to lose WWII so that Eisenhower could become president.

And Democrats were perfectly ok with the Nazis until they invaded their beloved Soviet Union,

Obama and Xerxes definitely have same narrisitic personality disorder.

They both think they are god....

[SkyDancer]

A bit hard to understand. Something about sitting down to dinner before bombing Pearl Harbor?

[ErnBatavia]

A bit hard to understand.

Yeah, it is unless you speak Ebonese as a second language....it was a college football player trying to rally his team at some pre-Bowl meeting; "Did the Japanese go and sit down with Pearl Harbor before they bombed him??"

Thanks - result of a classical public school education no doubt.

Oh, so Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, president from 1953-1961 as a Republican, wanted to lose?

Liberal white women are really, really stupid.

[Lazamataz]

Good Lord. She’s really gone off the deep end.

[Lazamataz]

Another tragic case of senility, Alzheimer and liberalism colliding in a perfect storm of stupidity!

Please add a smattering of alcoholism.

[Fledermaus]

They did more than not vote for it, they filibusterd the bill.

[SkyDancer]

Someone else sent me that - hard to understand it but got a transcript of it. Must be a fellow student of hers.

Luckily for all he wasn’t very good at it. The British didn’t trust him because he spread defeatism around by openly declaring that the British were going to lose the war.
