The most-discussed news stories this week? Last night’s first debate of Republican presidential candidates and Lenny Kravitz’s wardrobe malfunction during a concert in Stockholm (see it again here!), of course. Leave it to the ever-brassy Bette Midler to tie the two earth-shattering events together with a very succinct and completely accurate commentary via her Twitter account. The Divine one tweeted:
Lenny Kravitz’s penis slipped out on stage? So what? Wait for the GOP Debate on tonight – there will be 10 dicks on stage!

Certainly one of the biggest dicks on the stage in Cleveland last night was, naturally, Donald Trump. When questioned by moderator Megyn Kelly about his ugly penchant for referring to women he didn’t like as “fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals,” the follicly-challenged billionaire blowhard interrupted with “Only Rosie O’Donnell” to a disturbing amount of roaring applause from the audience. O’Donnell, who has never been shy about calling out Trump for his primordial behavior, offered a simple six-word rejoinder.

Only thing I took away from that debate was… I missed jon Stewart’s last episode for this. Thank that bearded man in the sky for DVR.

Im not sure I see Rosie’s comment as a rejoinder and I sure don’t see it as being only 5 words, queerty

@yogurt_lover_93: I’m not sure you can tell the difference between words and numbers, nor can you count beyond the number 1. YOUR rejoinder (sic) was irrelevant!

Rosie. You may no longer be fat, but your response to Trump was dumb.

What has Bette Midler ever done for gay rights? You know, I can’t even recall her marching in a pride parade. Maybe she has done it but I can’t recall it.
She reportedly did some stuff in a gay sauna or some such decades back, way before she became famous. I don’t personally consider this to be gay-friendly.

“try explaining that 2 ur kids”. she must have been eating or something. what a stupid response. and Midler hasn’t seen a DICK IN 40 YEARS. lame ass bitches, both of them.

She is absolutely spot fucking on about republicans. Republicans are full of shit, especially the 400 candidates running in the primaries.

Apparently, Lenny is not upset about his dick slip. That picture is still up on the Internet.

That was Rosie’s response and they did a ‘Boom, drop the Mic’… WEAK.
