Frances, I hear they’re hiring at SHOWBIZ TONIGHT!!

Brisket is certainly a big girl.

I think maybe Kate Gosselin did give her a few lessons, she better hope to improve some, because Florence Henderson showed her up, and she is 76 vs 19!! It was kind of creepy with her partner hanging all over her during the judging!!

I’m sure that’s not the first time Bristol ripped her clothes off 5 seconds after a guy showed up.

Great post on thread over at conservatives4palin.com re Bristol and voting…

I didn’t see Bristol dance, so my vote will be like I’m an Obama voter.
And I will vote multiple times, so my vote will be like I’m an Obama voter.
And I am caught up in the excitement, without having any knowledge of what actually happened, so my vote will be like I’m an Obama voter.
I feel really dumb about this, but I feel good about it, so my vote will be like I’m an Obama voter.
I guess I will feel like Pelosi, because I will vote, then see what Bristol did.

This is a weird world the Left lives in.
I’m off to votevotevotevotevotevotevote!

Bristol,

less makeup

I can’t help myself…. found this on thread over at Ace of Spades talking about DWTS…

I thought I saw a turkey being slaughtered in the background while Bristol was dancing. Then I realized it was Margaret Cho having her back shaved.

Oh dear, perhaps young Bristol should abstain from the Cheetos.

These comments were so painfully predictable, I’m embarrassed for the posters. I admire Bristol. She’s had to deal with comments like this for a very long time now and with only the maturity of a teenager, yet she refuses to run or hide or lower herself to BFD or TRRKs level in dealing with it all. It’s apparent she has a mature faith and is confident in her worth and value as a human being despite the hate and judgment from some. God Bless her.

Sorry, that was a bit childish but, I couldn’t resist. I will say this, most people who go on that show end up losing weight so, it will be interesting to see if Biscuit stays on long enough to drop some weight.

C’mon guys, the FAT JOKES are really easy

(though, gotta admit, BRISKET is the BEST nickname I have seen since this SPERM DEPOSITORY hit the scene)

Paul for a guy that used to weigh about 300 lbs you have got no room to laugh at others. You have your fat pictures on Facebook don’t you?

One thing everyone should notice is that all the people that comment of others looks are the ones that hide behind phony names and don’t have photos of themselves. Can you imagine what they look like?
My guess is that they have been picked on all their life and people have made fun of them. That is why they hide. We should all feel sorry for them.
What is strange is that think they are insulting someone else. Do you think that someone that does have a photo or videos is some how worried about their looks? You are the kind of people that make fun of people in wheel chairs and people that have a nerve disorder. Do you make fun of babies with Downs Syndrome too?

Please tell me you’re not talking to me. I’m 6’1″ and never cracked 165. I was making a joke from a commercial that I just remembered is probably way too local for most people around here to have seen.

‘She’s nervous and awkward’

She was nervous but not awkward. She actually has good natural rythm.

‘It was cheesy and certainly something young Tripp will be made fun of for when he goes to school’

It wasn’t cheesy and Tripp will be a lot less embarrassed over her dancing than your kids will be that you wrote this pathetic article about her dancing.

‘Most 19-year-olds in the spotlight don’t get to have anything approximating curves without being called fat, and Palin has a platform through which to help change that.’

Wow, Martel, you really are disgusting. You’re calling a young woman fat while pretending to care about calling young women fat. Seriously, you are a pig. She looked beautiful and has a very nice figure and great legs.

With the broad smile that we haven’t really seen — this may be one of the few times that she’s publicly having fun — her face kind of reminds me of a dancer/actress, whom if memory serves me did a couple of Bob Hopes and at least one Love Boat, but I can’t put my finger on a name.

Otherwise, she did good for her first time out.

Of course, I don’t follow the show and I believe she’s up against a couple of people who have danced for roles — Florence Henderson was previously mentioned and I believe Jennifer Grey is on the bill — but I’d say from the clip, she did well enough to stick around to generate a few weeks worth of ratings.

no-touchy-touchy said:

I heard Marceaux, I mean Blower, was a Navy Seal. Dangerous. In his wetsuit, he was mistaken for a whale, and the Japanese whalers kept chasing him.

According to reports, everyone gets a $125,000 base as a signing bonus and then their per-episode goes up in $10k increments every two weeks until it gets to $50k for the final two contestants. So, she’s already made more than a lot of people for what she has accomplished and there’s an outside possibility of $345k.

I’d say that though Florence Henderson may be a ringer, Ms. Palin has no complaints.

Actually laughed out loud.

I’d never cast a vote for Sarah Palin, but my feelings about her don’t transfer to her children. This girl is trying to make a living to take care of her child. Why shouldn’t she take advantage of such opportunities while there is interest?

Maybe it would be better if she flipped burgers or answered a phone and took some state/federal assistance to make ends meet? Then people could bitch that she was on the public dole.

I think it’s just plain mean to say hateful things about this girl because you despise her mother. What has she done apart from being born to Sarah Palin that offends you so terribly that you want to attack her this way?

I can sympathize with Brisket to the extent she had one of the world’s worst upbringings. A truly awful, exploitive mother. But, why the need for the quick buck? Is there anything inherently wrong with her going to college? In the end, the quick buck will run out quickly.

Rush would be proud!! Taking it down to the gutter. Showing your true colors!

@TRRK: Pretty much everyone would get it while they can. It’s the American way.

(Not to mention that appearing on a popular, populist reality show likely reinforces her mother’s down-home image and if Sarah decides to pursue her higher ambitions, her appearances would likely help)

@TRRK: PS) I realize that you like pushing the “worst upbringing” meme, but as far as I can see, the Palins look like normal folks to me. I wouldn’t support Sarah for President and I think she’s been given an inordinate amount of power by a media hungry for viewers and pageclicks, but as a family, they don’t appear to be any different than the people down the road.

Perhaps, but you realize what has happebed in the NBA and is now happening in the NFL with players foregoing college or dropping out. Get the big signing bonus, then off to the races, until …. Ricky Williams is a prime example, but only one of many. What is so wrong, so unAmerican about simple preparation and discipline.

I don’t know about your road, but I don’t know of a single family on mine who has an unwed daughter who dropped out of school, got knocked up and had no plan to marry; a son who destroyed public property and avoided criminal charges only by joining the military; a daughter who got boozed up and threw a big party in someone else’s vacant house, destroying the house; a very young daughter given to flipping off other children during a temper yantrum and in public. One, sure. Four? I know no such family. You know very well these children were raised without out involvement by a mother who always puts herself and her needs and desires first. My goodness, you even confir,ed that by suggesting Brisket’s trashy little display would likely benefit her mother with trashy voters. No, indeed, I know of no other family this utterly dysfunctional.

Sorry. Foreign language keyboard. The “a” and the “m” are in the strangest places. Don’t even get me started with punctuation!

“given her tenuous grasp on the title “Star” to begin with”

ummmmm…Frances??

Then why don’t you in the media give it a rest. You can’t have it both ways….you can’t whine about her presence…and then continue to write endlessly about her.

Dan must be so proud of your Frances – you couldn’t just write an article about her debut on the show; nope you had to throw in your typical snarkiness you aim at all conservatives. What an adult (not) you are. Between you and Glynnis (and COlby and Tommy), the PDS permeates this board so bad that it really does stink.

Honestly Frannie…..grow up, get a life. Stop complaining about Bristol and start talking about the bearded marxist.

OH touchy…..nice zinger.

Bristol Palin was charming & charismatic, bold & beautiful, energetic & entertaining on DWTS. She really rocks!

It’s nice to see that the daughter of the Tea Baggers’ most beloved idol isn’t beneath performing in trivial TV shows to make a buck.

The forces behind the astroturf movement are as transparent as can be.

As a side note, lets not be so petty as to comment on the young lady’s weight people. You’re grown men making fun of a young woman for superficial purposes. It’s akin to how Republican pundits dismiss anything Meghan McCain says out of hand because she’s heavier than the current ideal.

Exactly. I’ve seen her on a couple of talk shows and she seems like a nice young lady who was dragged into a whirlwind and is trying to make the best of it. If someone offers you a huge chunk of money for a few weeks of dancing , why not?

She is already wealthy. Aside from that, at this point, she has doors open to her that none of us ever will. For example, she can take a book offer for probably anywhere between 500k and 1mil then have a ghost writer do the work for her for 100k (then reap the sales rewards, to boot). That’s just off the top of my head. Oh, woe all the other mothers in the world that face anything between minimum wage to 100k a year.

She’s just making an example of how the apple doesn’t fall far form the tree, in my opinion. The fact that her, supposedly important and serious political mother, condones it reaffirms this.

The Real Royal King said:
Brisket is certainly a big girl.

TRRK, you’re an asshole.

Not everyone can have the sleek, athletic body of a Michael Moore.

Making fun of a kid because you hate her mother due to her political views is not very cool. I feel the same about making fun of the looks of the First Lady and the Carters. Come on, you’re better than that!

@TRRK: I don’t care if Bristol Palin chooses to attend college at this or any other time.

As I and others have said, pretty much everyone would take the money while they can. I know that whenever I launch any kind of endeavor, I try to tap every available revenue stream and just for the record, I’ll go ahead and say that it’d be of no concern to me, if the next oldest were to guest on the Kardashians or if Todd wanted to join up with the motorcycle show.

As for your long attempted indictment of Ms Palin Sr., you’ve described elements of at least every third family in America, if not the majority and if I were to disavow everyone who had an assortment of those traits, I’d have considerably fewer friends, plus family reunions would be a bitch.

Based on my understanding of last night’s performance and the publicity needs of ABC television, it sounds like Ms. Palin is going to be on the dance show for a while. You may prefer one of the other players, but she certainly has a right to compete.

TRRK, you’re an asshole.

It gets so much better–or worse as the case may be–though, King; wanna’ know whose house young Willow trashed? And although Wasyphilis seems chock full of them, per the Grifter Granny herself, there are NO coincidences.

And yet the King is forgiving, even offers praise, for a man who left a woman under water for eight hours before reporting it. The King’s moral compass seems a bit askew.

How in the world would you know how much money she’s earned, investments she’s made, ready cash she has, etc. So what if she has multiple doors open…she can walk through all of them or some or none…it’s her choice, not yours or ours.

Maybe she *will* write a book at some point; maybe she’ll go to college; maybe she’ll make enough to start a business. What’s it to us or other mothers who don’t have the same opportunities? Who do you think you are to decide for this young lady that she’s already wealthy enough but, if she just has to make some money, she should make it in the way you deem most worthy?

For heaven’s sake…I understand people can’t stand her mother (don’t care for her politics myself).. But, really, unless you’re family/friend/business advisor, what gripe could you personally have about how she makes her money? How does it adversely affect you or less fortunate mothers in any way whatsoever?

Would you like someone to tell you or your child that you’re allowed to earn only what they think you ought to earn and/or only in a way that they think is appropriate for you? I don’t normally get in the fray too much here — just not my style — but I really find it appalling that people will target this kid for derision when they wouldn’t give two hoots about her if she were anyone else’s child.

Spot on, Bunny. I also wonder how the posters making derogatory personal comments about Bristol here would react if the shoe was on the other foot and their daughter was the target. What’s going on in the head of an adult who can rip on a teenage girl like this? Pretty sick behavior.

Making fun of a kid because you hate her mother due to her political views is not very cool. I feel the same about making fun of the looks of the First Lady and the Carters. Come on, you’re better than that!

This too, and, of course, Magister always provides level-headed and well informed comments.

Donna k you suck, horrible……
I’m pulling for her, as much crap her and her family have gone through unnecessarily the past 2 years, I think she’ll go 3-4 weeks on popularity alone. ….she did okay dance wise, and I think Sarah is what any mother should be, over protective yet supportive, …the security for Sarah was a big issue, main reason why she wasn’t in the front row,of coarse Sarah can’t do anything right in the eyes of the left so she’s gonna get bashed either way…

Laura Bush is a murderer… Oops! Did I say that out loud? ;-)

Maybe we should all the past be the past, eh? I’m game.

But Paul, unlike the King with Ted Kennedy, I never praised Laura Bush. All people make mistakes, but the King’s hatred of Palin, even focusing it on her kids, seems demented.

Bunny, Rogue-Comic, fanofamerica:

I agree that’s it’s just rude and juvenile to attack Bristol’s looks or her choice of TV shows, or whatever. But she DID make the choice to put herself in the public eye. The campaign is over and she made her sacrifices for the cause, and I have total respect for how she and her siblings and their friends (platonic and otherwise) handled themselves during the media storm that was Sarah’s meteoric rise to stardom. But that’s all over now and she doesn’t need to make herself into a public figure. If she doesn’t want the criticism that comes with a celebrity image, she could do any number of other things to earn her keep and stay out of the spotlight. But she sought the spotlight on this one so she’s fair game. No reason to pick on her looks, style, intelligence, etc. All that is petty. But she IS a celebrity of her OWN making now. That she has to own.

OK, I won’t too deep into what is obviously a long-running battle between you two. I’m just saying, everyone has an abominable snowman in the family. ;-)

I will proffer one compassionate observation of behalf of Tundra Thighs: they did her disservice by pairing her with a male half her size and twice as limber. Just as Snowbilly succeeded only in making McCain looked older and angrier, Mark made Brisket look like a linebacker.

Then again, I suppose Jaws from Moonraker was unavailable.

LOL! Thumbs down on “I’m just saying, everyone has an abominable snowman in the family.”

NO! No abominable snowmen in MY family! Harumph harumph!

LOL

Every now and then, someone from the left will actually say something nice. But I think it’s like Hunter S. Thompson said in his book about the Hells Angels. He said they’ll occasionally be nice to people. But they’re not doing it because they’re nice. They’re doing it because they think it’s funny.

I can understand Palin having that affect on people. I would never go off on her kids. It’s rude, juvenile and counterproductive. But Sarah brings out the best in people, doesn’t she? ;-)

You could set a better example if you want similar treatment. I know it’s tough, especially after long-running battles that long ago lost their grounding… but it doesn’t help to paint us all with your observation. ;-)

Usually, Paul, when I refer to ‘the left’, I’m talking about the really hateful far left. And RK just happens to be one of the best examples of it. If he politically disagrees with Palin, fine. But referring to her daughter as a fat whore is going over into that Hells Angels example.

I hear ya. I’m never going to defend that kind of character assault. I do try to make sure I distinguish between the wingers who are just baiting and conservatives who are having real conversations. I think it helps to keep the return accusations to a dull roar. ;-)

Hey, Paul…thanks for the reply. I can agree with a lot of what you say. Yes, she’s certainly old enough and has seen enough to know what happens when you put yourself in the spotlight, but I still think it’s unfair for people to judge and criticize her so harshly because of her parentage.

Are we really at a point that absolutely anything goes and is acceptable in our criticisms? The internet is fabulous in so many ways, but it’s also allowed people to just go nuts with what they say — making remarks they’d never make in person (I hope, anyway). Just because we *can* say just about anything online doesn’t mean we should.

I realize I am overly tender-hearted (especially where kids are concerned), so it probably bothered me more than it should have. Not sure why I would appeal for people not to be so nasty, except I do still believe there are more decent people in the world than hateful ones. And I think everyone here is decent…we just get caught up with the political bickering and it spills over where maybe it shouldn’t. Just my opinion.

No disagreement at all.

That ship sailed a long time ago… remember all the cigar jokes? But honestly, America has always has this dark undercurrent. Adam’s wife was accused of being a whore (or was it Jefferson’s?). I’m not excusing it by any means, quite the opposite in fact. I’m just saying, it’s not really new, just amplified more in the age of new media.

I was a moderator with CNN back in the CompuServe days – early 90s. You just quoted me from 1991… and I was unwittingly quoting someone else from 1987. It just is what it is, it would seem. ;-)

But I’m glad people like us are still around to set a better example.

I think you’re mostly right on the money. Unfortunately, there are forces, extreme in all cases, that feel the desire or the compulsion to take advantage of our better natures for their own amusement or gain. Some of those people lurk on these boards in various guises. I’m not afraid to call them out when I see them and I’m always gratified to see a like-minded soul, no matter the political persuasion. Well said and well met. :D

Among other highly distasteful things, that hillbilly has a case of “Bad Body.” Ugh!

Yeah, Paul, I think this is really a sport for some folks — seeing who can say the most outrageous things to try to one-up someone else. I was a guide and host for AOL way back in the day, so I know what you mean — definitely has always been around. The internet just makes it a lot easier for that kind of thing to flourish.

Also, I’m not stuck in any sort of ideological corner (I can see good and bad in both parties, mostly bad…ha). I think because I’m not so entrenched, I don’t get as wound up as some who are. So maybe it just seems worse to me than it really is because I’m not in the thick of it. I kinda wish I *could* pick a side and get into things — probably be a lot more fun! ;)

Cheers! :D

I want to go off topic for a sec. Does anyone know if there’s a way to keep up with what articles you’ve commented on? When I go to the profile thing, just has the basic info you can change but no list of comments or such. Maybe I’m just overlooking it (and yeah, the blonde does go brain-deep), but I’ve searched around the site and can’t find anything (not even a help section).

If anyone knows the answer, please post it. Thank you! :)

Wow, Martel, you really are disgusting. You’re calling a young woman fat while pretending to care about calling young women fat. Seriously, you are a pig. She looked beautiful and has a very nice figure and great legs.

I gave this comment a thumbs-up because it implies that I’m thin.

Um, Frances, while you’re here… mind answering Bunny’s question?

Honestly don’t have an answer. I’m not sure if there is a way yet to see all of your comments in one place, but I’ll ask. Sorry!

I’m really amazed how many people, including the author of this piece, can’t wait to personally attack someone just because she’s the kid of someone you loathe. What has she ever done to you people? Really low class, I mean _really_ low. I’m sure you must be proud.

Thanks a lot for answering anyway. At least we know we’re not alone. ;-)

Paul and Frances, thank you very much! I feel better that at least it wasn’t staring me in the face and I couldn’t see it! :D That would be a nice feature to have if you could suggest it to your tech people, Frances.

‘I gave this comment a thumbs-up because it implies that I’m thin’

Wrong again. The comment explicitly says you’re a douchebag. It also explicitly says you’re a hypocrite. It implied you’re misogynist and assumes you’re fat. And ugly. Nobody likes to trash beautiful young women more than ugly fat guys with ‘issues’.

This comment just implied you have a small penis.

Bunny: She is Sara Palin’s daughter. Enough said.
