DWTS' Bristol Palin: "Haters" Are Trying "to Destroy" Me

It's been a controversial two days for Bristol Palin.
Even though she's consistently received the lowest judges' scores on Dancing With the Stars, she managed to make it to the finals next week. Ardent DWTS fans claim Republicans have spearheaded a campaign to keep Sarah Palin's daughter on the show. (One Wisconsin man was so disgusted, he shot his television when Bristol, 20, advanced.)

Then, Bristol and her younger sister Willow spewed a homophobic slur online to attack a schoolmate who was making fun of their family.
On her Facebook page, Bristol addressed both issues.

Of their derogatory statements, she said: "Willow and I shouldn't have reacted to negative comments about our family. We apologize."
She then took time out to thank her DWTS supporters: "On a nicer note, thank you for supporting the great competition in Dancing with the Stars!"

Hours later, she added, "Thank you supporters who continue to support. The haters are already pulling out all the stops this week to destroy."
Tell Us What You Think
96scariest thing of all is that the tea party and republicans take time from what is going on in this country to bother to vote on a dancing with the stars contestant at all...do we not have bigger fish to fry...
What is everybody's problem?? You all need to look back at All the DWTS previous seasons, there have been shocking results before on who was voted off and who stayed on. To bad you don't take the time to look up previous seasons of DWTS. instead of having so much malace and hatred for someone you don't know. Unless you walk in their shoes you don't know what you are talking about. Wear your own shoes for once, then you won't have the time to try to put someone elses shoes on that don't fit.If Bristol came from a Democratic background this would have NOT be an issue or a problem. Remember it is and never has been just the judges results, vote or shut up. It is only a show, enjoy it or change the channel. This is NOT political, you choose to make it that way. If she wins fine, if she doesn't fine. To much time on your hands, get a hobby. Take care of your own self. Look at yourself in the mirror,or can you, hope ya all can sleep at night as hateful as you have been. Shame on you! Evidently you have more time to complain than spend time with your family and friends. You will have regrets later when you no longer will have that chance again to spend with them. Today is the only day you have. No one knows what is in store for tomorrow, or if there will be a tomorrow. You must be a perfect person...
I have to have been one of the Biggest Baby Houseman Fans ever! I have been pulling for Jennifer for that reason and because she is a good dancer, after all (per wiki) She is an alumna of the Dalton School, a private school in Manhattan, and studied both dance and acting. I have been impressed with Bristol and her improvement and her great attitude. I have not voted for anyone yet. After seeing the reaction to Bristol being in the finale, not just the public but also on Jennifer's face and Brandy's bad attitude in general, I will vote for Bristol if she dances well on Monday night! I hope others will join me! I hope you win Bristol!!!!!
The outcome is not Bristols fault. I like Jennifer, and I hope she wins, but I feel Bristol is paying because of people who dislike her Mother. Too bad, some are that narrow minded.
Bristol Palin, who cannot dance should not be standing in the Finals of DWTS after three real contenders "Rick Fox", "Audrina" and "Brandy" have been elimanated....I do not care for Sarah Palin nor her politics. I honestly refused to let this stand in the way of my fair judging of Bristols moose like dancing. This will be my last season of DWTS, I have voted since day one, and will continue to the end. "Team Kyle and Lacy" !!!!!
I don't hate Bristol, I just believe she's a so-so dancer who has come a long way for herself, but is still nowhere near the caliber of dancers like Brandi, Jennifer, and Rick Fox. She shouldn't be there any longer & the only reason she got this far is because of her mother's popularity.
Just like with the REAL election... you CAN'T complain if you don't vote! Get over it, its just a show. I'm sure if Chelsea Clinton was on the show in the same situation it would not be an issue but just because her last name is Palin there is a huge conspiracy. Give me a break.
I really wish Sarah would have said something about the slurs instead of the kid who didn't say it (did she? I read about the younger girl saying something). I'm not going to call her names or anything, but if she should have gone home, she's not there because of her hard work, she's there because of her last name.
I believe I read a few articles that states she has her child with her, maybe some should suggest Angelina Jolie stay home with her 6 kids for a novelty. What about the Kardashian broad.
ABC has said that it uses IP addresses not email accounts. So if people try to vote from fake email addresses or multiple addresses from the same computer the votes are not counted. There is no conspiracy here people. This whole thing is just a pathetic case of poor sportsmanship. Sometimes you lose. Get over it.
Bristol Palin got three 9s for her paso doble the same as Brandi. Kelly O advanced to the finals in season 9 over a woman who scored a 30. This ranting and raving against Bristol is just because she is a Palin. And some people just hate her because of who her mother it. OS the man who shot his TV was is menatlly ill and was drunk at the time. He then aimed his shot gun at his wife who fled the home. Don't make it sound like Bristol inspired this nut. He was wacked and almost killed his wife. Bristol didn't say anything homophobic but Willow did. I know no other 16 yr olds say stuff like that though, right? *rolls eyes*
She should have went home a long time ago. Her effort is appreciated, however its not fair to see other people who clearly dances better than her, go home. She dances as if she is frozen and she doesn't seem to remember what she was taught in dance rehearsal. It seems that Sarah is using her daughter as a publicity stunt as well as her reality show to campaign for an election that isn't here yet. Its sad. And why isn't this girl at home taking care of her child? Have we forgotten about that? I personally hope she doesn't win.
Bristol is just a whiney little mama's girl who needs to slink back to Alaska. If she really thinks that the people are supporting her she is sadly mistaken. She should have been bounced before Rick Fox was! She can't dance worth a moose turd, she messes up every time she dances and she has the face of a robot when she is out there. What makes her think that she deserves to be there more than Brandi? Though I am hoping for Kyle and Lacy, I thought Brandi and Max had it. Now I think (if it isn't rigged) it will go to Jennifer and Derick. If Bristol takes even second place I will never watch the show again. I know a lot of people who have already bailed on watching any more.
You hang in there girl. Don't let the haters win. I feel sorry for people who have hate in their hearts. You go girl.
Bristol Palin Sucks.. She cannot dance to save her life.The whole state of Alaska and all of her mother's friends must have voted. She and her mother are phony. This is a dance competion. All she does is complain. She's a big baby. Go back to your receptionist job. This year the show is definitely fixed, and if Bristol wins..I will never watch again.They should have a recount and Brandy and Max should be asked to come back.Bristol has shown no improvement. She's too fat to dance.
Like mommy, like daughter. Unfortunately, Bristol, darlin, you are the daughter of a narcissist. She's got you duped. But that's OK. You'll find out in time. Really quickly if mommy does the stupid and runs for president. You're in for a rough ride, kiddo. I'm sorry for you. i'm sorry for your whole family.
SO WAIT...SHE CAN SPEW HOMOPHOBIC SLURS AND ITS OK? AND INSTEAD OF APOLOGIZING FOR SAYING IT SHE INSTEAD USES IT AS A "FEEL BAD FOR ME IM A TRUE AMERICAN" PLAT FORM.....SHEESH....
Bristol Palin Is A Fat Cow! She can't dance for crap! She has two left feets.. and thunder thighs. If Mommy's buddies didn't call in to help her.. Brandy who does this for a living. dancing and singing.. whom is light on her feet would be the "Real True Winner!" But.. what do you expect.. since Republicans are a bunch of snakes. Sara Palin is using her reality show.. as a leverage to boost her Political Career. I hope Donald Trump wins so he can easily... blow her small town mentality out of the Alaskan Waters!
one of the pop crunch websites reported that republican sites have created blogs on how to cheat the online voting to they can make fake eails and vote limitlessly. One comment on the blog was that one person voted 86 times "so far" and another said "im only up to 46 I'm slacking today". Clearly they are trying everything they can to keep her on there. On another note, She thinks haters are trying to destroy her? Get over yourself!! And stop cyber bullying alaskan kids in high school- which sounds a lot like you are destroying your image yourself without any help.
Here is what so many of you are missing: A HUGE number of Americans, Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, alike, are voting for Bristol Palin because they can relate to being told they are not enough. Everybody keeps talking about how she is not skilled enough, she not thin enough, she's not emotive enough...but nobody ever talks about her EFFORT! Nobody seems to care how hard she has been working. Well, lots of Americans can relate to that. In my opinion, Bristol Palin is THE PEOPLES' DANCER! And when she dances, she is dancing for all of us Americans who have been told we are not enough...that we're not pretty/handsome enough, that we're not smart enough, that we're not talented enough, that we're not thin enough, etc. If I have my way, Bristol Palin will win the whole thing! GO BRISTOL PALIN, THE PEOPLES' DANCER!!!
