Bette Midler Warns Glenn Beck Could Set Off a Rwanda-Like Civil War in U.S.

It's just what the primetime cable news lineup needed - another hour-long program tilted toward left-of-center politics with character assassination on conservatives.

CNN Headline News debuted its "The Joy Behar Show" on Sept. 29, which included appearances by lefty comedian Jeanane Garofalo, CNN's Jack Cafferty and actress Bette Midler. Garofalo doubled down on her low regard for conservative 9/12 and tea party protesters, labeling them as racists. Cafferty went after President Barack Obama for his disregard of the carbon footprint his lobbying efforts in Copenhagen for Chicago to host the 2016 Summer Olympics.

However, actress-turned-Vegas entertainer Bette Midler went straight after former CNN Headline News host Glenn Beck. She was prodded by host Joy Behar, who mentioned Beck as someone who is encouraging a breakdown in so-called "political discourse."

And if she survives that, try downtown Oakland next.

The ammo started getting bought up when Lord Zero got elected, not when Beck went to Fox. So she needs to reassess who is dividing the country.

And this is a bad thing? I’d like to see the libtards come after me and my family. There’d be nothing but splatter left of them.

When she mentioned Rwanda, I thought immediately of a Crips vs. Bloods, nationwide gangfight.

I make an effort to meet my African American neighbors, and I have been surprised/apalled at the massive chip that many of them have on their shoulder. And these are relivively affluent, middle class African Americans.

The media and the Left is fueling the potential for racial clashes and should take the blame if such occur.

“If there is a “Rawanda-like civil war” in the US what are the lefty going to fight with? Last I checked it’s all of the conservatives buying guns.”

Respectfully, it is some of both. Don’t underestimate leftist hypocrisy on the Second Amendment any more than their hypocrisies on the First Amendment and personal wealth. Be assured they have their arms caches too.

People, not arms, will make the difference. The Left groans under the weight of parasites, kooks and theorists. We are blessed with the majority of disciplined, practical and productive people.

Fine, bring your machetes and burning tires. We’ll bring guns.

I don't listen to any of these people or their shows. If it weren't for people posting this information on FR or other conservative websites, I wouldn't even know about it. We all know the poor ratings that these shows receive. Only the most radical left-wingers watch them. That is their audience, and they have to feed them radical left-wing propaganda. If they didn't cater to the Socialists, they wouldn't have an audience.

I'd pit any (real, American) woman from the 9/12 party against any of those guilt-ridden, unsatisfied liberal shrills. Somewhat sad that Bette joined them...a waste of talent.

When Rawanda happens here it will be because the powers that be want to take us down from the inside. it will happen and it will be a fearful time. All of the west will be rocked. Those youths are not going to stay out of Paris or in Birmingham.

Which tribe is Bette? The Huuters or the Titsi?

I think these people are a plant for our side. They are just to misinformed and hateful to be believable.

OK, it's on.

Who are the Hutus, and who are the Tutsis?

“Last I checked it’s all of the conservatives buying guns.”

In a period of anarchy, like LA, white liberals plan on blacks protecting them.

They’ll be disillusioned when they’re getting raped and robbed
by their protectors.

When it appeared that the Kenyan would win, I, like, everyone else, had the moment of clarity that civil strife was coming.

During the last election, I made a list of everyone who put up a Obama sign in the hood.

By then it will be too late. Leaders do not pay the price for what they wrought.

“Bette Midler? Bette Midler? What rock did they pull her out from under?”

Are you kidding, Bette Midler is at the peak of her gay-man-misdirected-girl-crush/oedopean, pseudo-talent carreer. You can quote me on that. Liza Minnilli silently weeps for her loss of ranking.

I did like Better Midler in Beaches, a movie she starred in with Barbara Hershey, a privileged rich debutante. Bette is a cynical struggling entertainer and the two of them share a turbulent, but strong childhood friendship over the years, ending with Barbara Hershey dying of cancer and Bette Midler caring for her and her daughter. But one line in the movie just cracked me up and it reminds me of our president. Bette said to Barbara Hersey: "But enough about me, let's talk about you... what do YOU think of me?"

Exactly right, and more of us have military training, combat experience and a VERY strong sense of Duty, Honor, and Country.

The left has nothing of substance to fight for, making them a much lesser danger. There will be lots of casualties on both sides, but I know who will ultimately win.

Semper Fi, Marine!
