a high school punk band, at that!
Everyone starts out in a garage.
Noose meet neck!
Aw now 1985, if you're going to give me a TD it's got to be for saying something pointless like: corporate greed stole my gold, Ron Paul blah, blah, blah: Corporate Greed also loves inflation. That’s why they stole our gold; Which is why I voted for Ron Paul (inb4 I’m censored); What about Corporate Greed being forced to return the gold they stole and reinstate wages and prices back to pre 1970 levels[?]; You’d want to silence the truth wouldn’t you; Too bad Romney cheated, we could have had Ron Paul as a competent opponent; We’ve been seeing a decline for the past 50 years, you’re just now realizing it? All silly, sophomoric comments aimed not at the article in question but at us as if we're your personal classroom full of little libertarians ready and waiting to be schooled about how you personally got screwed by us and by corporate greed. You have an amazing grasp of the obvious. So tell us something we don't already know.
That's not me you replied to above you know.
We just figured that's the BS you would say. Since it's always "corporate greed", Ron Paul, & "stole our gold". You are like a punk band, same 3 chords, not very complex, not very deep, & not thoughtful.
I don't think general welfare means what she thinks it does.
Most people who point to "general welfare" don't understand what that means. Thank you public education.
Inconceivable!
LOL!

I feel like either she is kidding or I am missing something entirely. I know she is a bleeding-heart LGBT supporter, but is she really that crazy far left?
EDIT: Her website shows she tweeted this a few minutes ago:
"But when is the IRS going to investigate GE and all the other corporations who get away with paying ZERO taxes???"
I am going to give her the benefit of the doubt here, and say that the original tweet was sarcasm. As much as I despise celebrities who get into politics, I think Bette is semi-OK - and she is absolutely a sarcastic wit.
I think it was sarcasm too.
Stupid bitch.....Had one hit song and thinks she is the smartest person in the room....
First who the heck cares what this stupid ass b*tch has to say?
Second what was the last thing that she did that was so great?
Third is she on drugs?
Fourth She is talking out of behind and she should just be ignored.
Wow the stalker is a Bette Midler fan... not a surprise.
Bette Midler, I love your singing voice, or at least I used to, but now you're talking out of that place with the trembling lips and they have no idea what they're saying and that's because they serve a dual purpose; that of releasing unwanted gas, which you do well, by the way and of ridding the body of what it considers solid waste toxins, which you also do well. Stick to what you know and we'll all be fine.
So if a future Republican adminstration goes after liberal non-profits, Bette will be cool with that too? Hollywood is a bottomless pit of politcal stupidty and hypocrisy.
Even by Progressive 'standards' this makes no sense, which means Bette will now be considered a serious contender for the US Senate if Bow Wow or DiFi ever retire.
Looks like Bette won't be facing an audit.
looks like ol Bette has something to hide hahaha
