    At least she is working hard and not expecting to get extra privileges, just a plain simple girl living a plain simple life.

    It's not easy finding new reasons to be on TV, magazines, internet etc.
    You try being followed by a camera crew all the time while saying really deep and meaningful comments on the world.
    Not easy, eh?

    I haven't heard her say anything deep or meaningful... she seems to be working hard at trying to be famous, but I can't see any reason she should be (famous), if other than the fact that Americans seem to be entertained by virtually anything.

    OK, so, since when is making a living for your family by taking advantage of opportunities a crime? Her mom's celebrity led to her opp and she is taking it. Same with every actress, writer, singer, waitress, local librarian, school police officer, radio DJ, etc, etc, etc. They're just trying to get some visibility. Bristol has a good message (before you bash her words, you should read some of them - her book, her speeches, etc. She's quite well-spoken and knowledgeable) and she is attempting to get it out to her audience - young girls, like she was, before they make the same choice she did. She's a much better role model than other celebrities, like Paris Hilton, the Kardashians, and others who young girls idolize. I think she's offering them a better alternative. Oh, and yes, Americans have always been entertained by non-actors - the Kennedys, the Rockefellers, the Trumps, Gloria Steinem, every Miss-anything beauty contest winner, Malcolm X, John Wilkes Booth, Anna Nicole Smith, Kate Moss, Twiggy, and many more. Bristol has just as much right to notoriety as any of those.

    But like a good girl she has learned from her mistake and is now teaching abstinence.

    Your satament is as nasty as it gets, and your hate is the evidence of inferior complex of a lesser being!

    Yeah, kinda like O'blamer's teachable moments on ethic, honor, character, leadership, integrity, business management. Oh may I add, how a community agitator may divide the nation successfully.

    You are a prime example that RWNJs can't stand the truth. The Palins are not worthy of my hate and neither are you. As for a lesser being, you shouldn't talk about yourself like that or the Palins in that manner. RWNJS can't help it if They are inadequate and inferior. RWNJs including the Palins are to be pitied rather than hated. It is a scientific fact that they are of lower intelligence than "NORMAL" people.

    What you think about the President Obama is no more than your insignificant, unimportant, pathetic and wrong as usual opinion, nothing more. Obama has more ethics, honor, character, leadership, integrity , business management in his @$$ than all RWNJs collectively have in their poor inadequate excuses for brains.

    Obama didn't divide the nation, RWNJs did and always have. Your hate and actions are evidence that racist RWNJs can't stand the fact that the POTUS is "BLACK". It's a fact and the sooner you get use to it the better off you will be. Now off with you, go somewhere and fly a kite. :-)

    You don't hate the Palins but you just spew hateful commons about the young woman by way of degrading her mother???

    If any one saided any thing remotely resemble to what you saided about obama's girls you would have considered these comments hateful, and rightfully so.

    Stop the name calling, and race baiting. I am a minority, yourbama has been using race as a divider since 2008 to Hillary, and to our citizens.

    America voted for O'blamer for what he said and who he was; we are voting him out for what he isn't and for what he did to this great nation.

    I reiterate that fact that both you and the Palins are unworthy of my hate. In order to hate someone, one would have to have cared about them first. In that respect again, I find you are unworthy.

    RWNJs are an unbelievable breed. They lie so vehemently until I actually think they believe their own lies. RWNJs call President Obama and the First Lady everything but children of God mainly because they are Black. They turn around in the next breath and have the audacity to accuse Obama of using race as a divider when it is they who are blowing their racist dog whistles.

    Obama is not responsible for the color of his skin or his race which is a bone of contention among RWNJS. They should just own it or STFU.

    I will make a deal with you, as soon as the RWNJs stop their own race baiting and name calling, I will stop spewing the truth about racist RWNJs. Fair exchange is not a robbery.

    As for you, if you are a minority as you claim, you have my sympathy about the company you keep. May God have mercy on your delusional, sad and pathetic soul.

    PS: The word "said" is already in the past tense there is no need to add "ed". You need to work on getting your GED.

    Thank you for the correction, it was a typo. Have you ever had one?
    By the way, I received my MBA in 1991, what year did you get your high school deploma?

    You are sidestepping the issue, no one said O'blamer is responsible for his race, it was his divissive politics, inexperience, incompetantcy that are repulssive to so many.
    He has drivena wedge into every social, ethnic, econmoic, religious group just so that he and Valerie could maintain their power.

    Worse president ever, one and done!

    Sure it was a typo, one that you made twice in the same paragraph, actually you made the "typo" twice in the same run on sentence .

    So, from what university did you receive your MBA? I ask that so I can be sure I do not send any of my children to the same one from which you received your "MBA". BTW "Diploma" is not spelled "deploma". Another one of your many typos?

    Now back to the "issue", I can't help you with your lack of reading comprehension skills nor can I read for you. What I said pertaining to President Obama and race and race relations was plain enough where even the dimmest bulb in the realm of RWNJs should have been able to comprehend.

    PS: You still need to work on that GED

    USC, and you? But, what ever, I don't care of your condescending attitude.

    You will not answer the question, because you know any one with a common sense of decency would have disagree with you. These are young girls, not much older than the obama girls.

    You are projecting, where did you see me posting about obama's race? I don't like his policies, not thing to do with him being black and white.

    No jobs, no hope, economy is in the toilet and we will make the real change on Nov 6th.

    University of Houston. Your question has been answered. If it is not the answer you seek or can understand, that's your problem. Why don't you wait until November 6 before you count your chickens before the eggs hatch? You might just be unpleasantly surprised.

    As for "my condescending attitude"I could not care less about what you care for or don't care for.

    As for the unwed mother, Bristol Palin who lived with her baby's daddy in her parents household without the benefit of marriage, she is a grown @$$ woman with an illegitimate child.

    She is also a media whore just like her mother. Not saying it aloud will not change the facts about what she is and it ain't nothing nice. Enough said.

    There is so much hate directed toward her, from these people we know as "the liberals" These people, have revealed their hateful and spiteful attidudes through their very words, used to discuss Bristol. These liberal haters posting here, revealing their hate are the very ones who cry hate from the Tea Party folks who don't hate at all. The Tea Party fold hold peaceful rallies. As for that occupy crowd, we saw what they did.
    I have to support Bristal, you liberal haters have made her the underdog. You say she has no talent? I beg to differ. She wasn't the best, but she could hold her own on the dance floor, and she did improve. What have YOU done lately, you liberal haters? I thought so......................nothi... than flap your mouth, revealing your hate.

    It was politics that kept her in there. That's what pissed me off about that season. Dtws was an escape to just enjoy stars become awesome dancers. Then the season got weird with all the politics involved. If liberals were mad Palin was there, maybe conservatives/tea drinkers were voting for Bristol for reasons other than her abilities,, veering away from the purpose of the show. She was not the best dancer, yet others who were great or better got thrown out early. Based on skill, Brandy should've been the runner up. I stopped watching after she got kicked off.
