Bette Midler Joins the Christie Fat Joke Chorus

I’ve always liked Bette Midler, Save Jerseyans.

Great performer, solid set of pipes, she sang that classic Gulf War “God is Watching Us” song and hey, who doesn’t love watching Hocus Pocus this time of year?

That’s why it’s particularly disappointing to see her resort to the lowest common denominator and lampoon Governor Chris Christie’s weight during Monday’s presidential debate:

Com’on, Bette! You’re better than that.

  1. Remember when George Foreman was going to fight Holyfield. David Letterman kept on making crack about Foreman's waist size. What did Foreman do? He just ate up the publicity. He became one of the most popular athletes in American as a result.

    I make Chris Chistie fat jokes too. I said "I am on a diet Too bad its the Chris Christie diet." As Ed Rendell said, Chris Christie makes his weight work for him and takes advantage of it. Corzine tried to make fun of Christie's weight and got burned. Let her make the jokes. And stop being so sensitive.

  2. Bette Midler is ditzy.

    I met her in the mens room of Continental Airlines' President Club in Ft. Lauderdale. Really, the mens room.

    She walked in while I was washing my hands.

    I said, "Hi Bette." She said, "What are you doing in here?"

    "Well, now I'm washing my hands. What are you doing in here?"

    "Is this the ladies room?"

    "No."
