West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice concluded his state of the state address Thursday by lifting up his English Bulldog Babydog and showing off her butt - sending a message to actress Bette Midler. "They never believed in West Virginia. That we could do it. They told every bad joke in the world about us. And so from that standpoint, Babydog tells Bette Midler and all those out there, 'kiss her hiney.'" Before showing off the dog's behind, Justice marveled, "But this has been the year of Babydog hadn't it? So she's gotta come on out here," he said. "Come on out here, Baby." Babydog was then paraded through the legislative assembly on a leash and handed over to the governor, who hoisted her up on the podium. "Absolutely too many people doubted us," Justice said.
Midler had made disparaging comments about West Virginia following Democratic West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin's refusal to support President Joe Biden's Build Back Better bill.

I’ve had a long, grueling work week and wanted to post something fun. Thank goodness DM UK had this towards the top story :)
Betty would enjoy it most likely.
This may upset Kramer.

Ha! The best post I saw on DM so far was that the governor was simply holding up a recent picture of Bette herself, and it only LOOKED like Babydog’s butte. ;>)
Bette Midler probably has already kissed a dogs butt at some point in her life.
😂 Lovin it
Let’s make sure that dog gets some counseling.
She sees the same in the mirror every morning.
That is one thick doggie.
He’s free to be more like us. Started out his term as a Democrat-right? Could he take over for Mancin in ‘24? I’d rather he take out Capito but that’s in ‘26.
Jim Justice for President!
This literally begs for some meme added to it.
So funny. How you like that Bette?
Nobody pays any attention to Bette Midler anymore.
Fragrance aside, for Bette it would be a bit like kissing a mirror.
And one thick governor as well. He was recently very sick with COVID. Glad to see him up. Needs to work on his comorbidity
Hilarious!
