Bette Midler Attacks West Virginians as ‘Poor, Illiterate and Strung Out,’ Then Apologizes
Breitbart ^ | 12/20/2021 | David NG

Posted on 12/20/2021 9:04:44 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Left-wing Hollywood star Bette Midler has insulted the people of West Virginia, describing them as “poor, illiterate and strung out” in a vicious Twitter rant aimed at Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV). She later apologized for her outburst, saying she was angry over the senator’s decision to vote against President Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan.

Bette Midler lashed out at the senator in a rageful tweet on Monday. “He wants us all to be just like his state, West Virginia. Poor, illiterate and strung out,” she wrote. (The term “strung out” typically refers to drug addiction.)

Bette already has the illiterate part down. Maybe she's strung out too. Having been fortunate to be born here i the USA she is not poor.

Like Joy Behar, Bette Midler just reminds me of that fat cow ugly hag aunt. Nauseating, disgusting, ugly, bad breath, a cow and about the most unattractive thing among our species. Rosie Odonnel, Joy Behar types. And their politics make them that much more repulsive. Gosh I hope she reads this.

This is what the Left does.

It was White Southerners a generation ago. Now its the White Working Class everywhere. If things keep going like they are trending, it will be Hispanics next.

Joe Manchin is giving his voters what they elected him to do. Taking care of their needs and that of the US citizenry as a whole. A rare show of courage and statesmanship for any person who has a lot to lose politically. I appreciate his putting a stop to a treasonous bill that the communist democrat party had gone overboard with in trying to legislate into law numerous destructive programs that would destroy this Republic. I am well acquainted with family and friends in, and from, Kentucky and WV. You have certainly gotten to the heart and spirit of those fellow Americans who live there. Good, honest and patriotic people. The drugs etc are so prevalent in most states, especially in Midlers line of work, that WV pales in comparison. Midler is typical of uninformed, ignorant, media promoted commie shills who spew out whatever gets attention that promotes their anti American agenda. God bless Senator Manchin and West Virginia's citizens.

Is there a more drug addicted group than actors and actresses, producers, directors and people associated with “the arts industry”?

This “industry” is the group that puts the makeup on the pig of drug and alcohol addiction. That pushes perversion, divorce, and a Godless existence. So ST*U you wretched old hag.

Bette is struggling with BSS. (Barbara Streisand Syndrome) It happens when you no longer have your looks, talent and relevance. Cher suffers from the same illness. There is a cure for this debilitating disease, but sufferers seldom seek out the cure at the advice of their agents.

The cure is pretty common. Walk around your residence and take in all the fine art, music, furniture that you bought with the money you earned in your chosen craft. Thank god for all you have and be grateful for it. And turn off MSNBC and CNN and stay away from those who also suffer from BSS. That’s the cure in a nutshell.
