Bette Midler's Village Is Missing Its Idiot

One is forced to conclude that the dumber a celebrity is, the more likely she is to inform the public of her political opinions. Appearing as a guest on the Joy Behar's talk show, Bette Midler declared that she is "terrified" of Glenn Beck and accused him of fomenting genocide.

"If you look around at the rest of the world and what this kind of behavior has done, like in Rwanda, where the demagogues got on the radio and fomented all that hate between the Tutsis and the Hutus and the devastation that happened from that, I mean, it's terrifying," Midler said.

According to Midler, that's a possibility in the United States.

Midler labeled Glenn Beck's blend of patriotism and muckraking "hate speech." Would anyone be surprised if she had never watched or heard Glenn Beck outside of ... maybe... a few leftist-doctored clips on YouTube?
