Bette Midler thanks IRS for targeting Tea Party groups
examiner ^ | 5/17/13 | Joe Newby

Posted on 05/27/2013 9:32:04 AM PDT by Nachum

Since news broke that the IRS targeted conservative organizations due to their political views, some on the left have celebrated the actions. The latest to do so is Bette Midler, who took to Twitter Thursday to thank the IRS for going after the small government movement, Twitchy reported.

"The IRS overtaxing The Tea Party? I never thought I'd say this to the IRS - THANK YOU! THANK YOU FOR DENYING 501C-4 to any group who hates," she wrote.

Some of her followers expressed support for her position.

Fools like Midler (and a huge percentage of the Hollyweird vermin) are all for collectivism so long as you do not 'collect' a large amount of their wealth to give to the 'little people' who are their fans.

Leftists are natural hypocrits.

Isn’t she Jewish? Does she applaud the IRS targeting of Jewish groups as well?

No. That would be logical. She's also a far left lib...and libs do not use logic.

This old gal just needs to stick to singing and put her tweets to rest. She's becoming the geriatric version of Amanda Bynes.

Whenever i read that name, all I can think of is...

“Well, you made a long journey from Milan to Minsk, Rochelle, Rochelle. You never stopped hoping; now you’re in the Pinsk, Rochelle, Rochelle. When the naysayers nay you picked up your pace. You said nothing’s going to stop me so get out of my face. I’m having adventures all over the place, Rochelle, ROCHELLE!”

"Remember Bette, what comes around goes around."

Listen to Nachum, Bette. You know he is correct.

Bette you Baccus, Schumer, Franken, Waters, et. al. must know you are laying the ground work for something terrible. [Use your imagination]

Methinks even your low information voters know what you are doing. They just don't yet know the consequences.

Just in case you or your voters are obtuse, the ground work you are laying will make CWI look like a walk in the park on a warm spring day.

Bette is so dim she thinks it's only fascism when other people do it.

People who applaud the use of the government to go after groups they do not like are the ones that complain the loudest when their own group is targeted. It is obvious they really do not believe in a free society, but one ruled by people like them. Democracy, in any of it’s forms, are not what Midler and her ilk prefer.

Here are her educational credentials which give her etiquette for publicly, divinely, opining on the state of our governmental corruption, which, at this point is biblical, thanks to people listening to her and her circle:

She was raised in Aiea, HI, and attended Radford High School, in Honolulu.[6] She was voted “Most Talkative” in the 1961 school Hoss Election, and in her Senior Year (Class of 1963), “Most Dramatic”.[7] Midler majored in drama at the University of Hawaii, but left after three semesters.[8] She earned money in the 1966 film Hawaii as an extra,[5] playing an uncredited seasick passenger named Miss David Buff.

Oh, and she has a smile surgically installed on her face which would otherwise show her severe hatred af all things good in this country that she has the freedom to leave any time she wants.

Is she really that stupid or does she just play stupid on the internet. And on TV, in print, and on the radio...

This is exactly the mindset that many in Germany had in the 1930s when the National Socialists went after the Jews. I’m wondering how long it’ll be before the first extermination of a conservative takes place. Or has it already...

I am puzzled as to where they get the idea that the Tea Party “hates.” Hates the destruction of the Constitution? Hates excessive taxation? Hates big government?

I think it's "What goes around comes around."

But we knew what you meant.

So I just opened my itunes music list and I deleted all my Midler songs. A grand total of 4. 3 of the songs are covered by other artists in my music library so no huge loss. Normally I ignore rants and raves of the loony artist crowd but occasionally they go over the line in my mind and this instance was such a case. I am not consistent in this nor do I care to be. Still have Streisand and Springsteen and a bunch of other loonies in there but they may go at some point too. If the level of negativity rises to such a level in listening to certain artists that there is no longer enjoyment then its bye bye. Bette just reached her best before date with me. It might have happened when she said some vile stuff about W a few years ago but that didn’t do it at the time but this did.

Bette Midler would have been a kapo in the camps in the early 1940s.

THANK YOU FOR DENYING 501C-4 to any group who hates,” ....................................... Who shows more hatred than the Liberal Groups? Tea Party folks are Taxed Enough Already, and I don’t see where their so called hatred stems from, other than from the misleading Press reports. Its the Press, who love to portray them as redneck KKK Nazis. Propagandists love hollow minded people, they are so easy to persuade and Bette Midler is no Rocket Scientist. LOL, I bet she just loves Palin too. Show me your love Bette.

You don’t need a brain to sing well.

She and Barbara Streisand have definitely proven that.

Both are ugly as sin too.
