HOME is not setup by bash but inherited from the parent process.

Try type env⌃R in TextMate and see if you have HOME, USER, and  
LOGNAME set.

You could likely quit TextMate and start it from your terminal (where  
you have HOME) calling TextMate.app/Contents/MacOS/TextMate directly  
(i.e. not using ‘open’, as then it would be launch services/the  
WindowServer process which starts it, and it then inherits the  
environment from that process, which is likely the process that  
somehow managed to un-associate itself with USER etc.).
