Bristol Palin: "Prayer" got her through Dancing With the Stars

[Bluebear]

Poor thing. She talks as if she were one of the trapped Chilean miners.

====

(PEOPLE) -- Bristol Palin is happy with her third-place finish on "Dancing with the Stars."

But it hasn't been easy for the Alaska native, 20, who finished season 11 behind Kyle Massey and winner Jennifer Grey. Palin's run in the ballroom competition was plagued with controversy because, despite consistently lower scores from the judges, fans voted her through week after week. There was even a frightening moment when a threatening package arrived at the CBS studios where the show is broadcast.

"It is faith that got me through this and just praying all the time and just relying on God and knowing that He is on our side and we'll get through this," Palin told PEOPLE after Monday's finale.

1. Sounds miserable.

Why did she do it then?

[Obamanaut]

3. Maybe the big $ for participating. nt

[dsc]

26. according to Margaret Cho

Bristol did this because Sarah blamed her for the loss of the election and insisted she go on to help reintroduce Sarah to the American public. I can't link because it was at Cho's concert in Durham where she said it.

[no_hypocrisy]

31. Bristol's pregnancy pre-dated McCain selecting Palin for the ticket.

If Margaret Cho's account is true, then Palin is a more miserable human being than I thought she was.

[msongs]

2. did prayer get her pregnant too lol nt

[saigon68]

7. At least "The Holy Ghost" didn't

[HipChick]

[gratuitous]

4. I believe a LOT of people are praying whenever a Palin gets on TV

"God DAMN it" can be a prayer.

[donco6]

5. Yeah, because the God who made the stars gives a shit about DWTS.

How fucking deluded are these hillbillies?

[blueamy66]

46. Exactly.

War, drought, hunger....and God cares about DWTS.

Holy Shit.

[dontcallmebob]

6. jesus would win all competitions he entered

jesus is a damn good dancer. this is an example of the narcissistic characteristics of many religions

[provis99]

15. "I am the Lord of the Dance, said he"

[WorseBeforeBetter]

9. "Dear God pls let me win so I can send a big FU to everyone who hates my Mom."

Like that?

[Lasher]

10. Ha ha ha, that's exactly right.

:D

[UrbScotty]

11. Well, MY prayers were answered - I prayed that she would not win!

Okay, I don't pray about THAT kind of thing, but hey!

[RainDog]

12. LOL. god is on her side in a television dancing program?!?!

I guess that's why god hasn't had the time to deal with pedophilia among the clergy, or the call to execute homosexuals among clergy in Africa or wars, famine and natural disasters...

god was too busy making sure Bristol Palin made it through to the next round of dancing with the stars.

that is one fucked up view of god.

[DumbBassRepublicans]

13. A-G-R-E-E-D.....!!!!

That is a view of God from a bunch of f**ked up individuals....

Why is it that ALL f**ked up people are NOT republicans,
but....
ALL republicans are f**ked up..??!!

LOL...!!!

:evilgrin:

[MrModerate]

14. I love it when Palin family members step out and flash their trailer trash ID cards. Keep it up! n/t

[uncle ray]

16. funny, i've never heard of that strain of cannabis.

i though i knew of all of the "good stuff".

[Raine]

17. "He is on OUR side"???

:wtf: it was STUPID meaningless dance "contest"!

[SoCalDem]

18. Too bad Jesus did not love her enough to let her win

:rofl:

[Obamanaut]

27. Maybe he loved her enough to give her the strength to bear the loss.

:evilgrin:

[Anakin Skywalker]

19. Faith Will Also Help Mommy Win in 2012?

[mr blur]

20. Their god cares who wins a dancing competition?

Sad.

I guess he doesn't have anything better to do.

[eShirl]

21. Well, it certainly wasn't "Talent."

[Bobbieo]

22. It sure wasn't talent!!!

[Cass]

23. God was on their side? Who is the other side? The people who voted for other contestants?

I hate these kind of comments. It brings up this imagined sense of superiority --- God got ME through it, but not you because you are on the other side --- God loves me but you not so much.

[panzerfaust]

28. Yep - and Dog will now punish those who did not follow His will

It's all in the Good Book and is revealed by using the Bristol Palin Bible Code Phrase.

Sorry though, I cannot share that phrase, it is secret (but you can get an idea of how it works by reading "The Bible Code").

So Dog, better Luck next time with your Chosen One dancer - Oh, and with your Chosen Leader.


Gott Mit Uns: God is With Us

[olegramps]

24. It amazes me that anyone would watch this crap. It reminds me of the Romans at the Colosseum.

[hermetic]

25. God knows

alcohol got me through that entire ordeal. I am so glad it is over now and I hope to never hear another word about it. Amen.

[Ikonoklast]

29. Damn, olegramps, you really ARE old!

And I never knew that they held dance competitions at the Colosseum, thank you for that bit of history.

You know, they just don't teach you everything you should know in school anymore.














:hide:

[olegramps]

30. Yeah, I know. Its sad. Doles and Circuses to pacify the mob.

It is akin to dueling banjos or some like. I have to chuckle when I envision all those fundamentalists who think dancing is inspired by the devil applauding Bristol's prancing.

[golddigger]

32. And then God 's voice thundered from the heavens and said,

"YOU DON"T FUCK WITH BABY!"

[Vickers]

33. She should've prayed to 1st Place Jesus and not 2nd Place Jesus. n/t

[golddigger]

34. She got third place jesus instead.

[Vickers]

35. Dang, she messed up.

:P

[Stevenmarc]

36. God, the magical micro manager

[spanone]

37. bristol, obviously god has more important shit to attend to

[mrs_p]

38. i know this is trivial

but dwts is on abc, not cbs...

[PeaceNikki]

40. Show is filmed in CBS studio, though

[mrs_p]

47. ohh - i see

corporate incest :o

[Brewman_Jax]

39. She's right

it had to have been prayer, because it sure was not talent--and definitely not attitude. Mark Ballas deserves a bonus for putting up with her and her in-the-spotlight family.

[City Lights]

41. Nope. It was a rigged voting system that got her "through."

:thumbsdown: to all things Palin.

[AngryOldDem]

42. As well as the desire to flip off her "haters."

I really, really hate it when people bring God into stuff like this. I triple-hate it when hypocrites do it.

[B Calm]

43. After Prayer she enjoys giving the middle finger to the people who

hate her mother. LOL is this the definition of religiously insane?

[KansasVoter]

44. Maybe God could help those kids in Africa Bristol!

[otohara]

45. Cringe Worthy

I pray everyday her mother would just go away.
God clearly is not on my side.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

48. Thinking that God cared about her dancing is just egomaniacal and it also makes me

so very happy that a non-Christian beat her out! :)

[johnnie]

49. Is she now going to give God a big middle finger...

....because he didn't let her win?
