Dolly Parton: 'I Can Relate to Sarah Palin'

In "Extra's" exclusive interview with Dolly Parton today in Nashville, the country legend declared, "I can relate to Sarah Palin. I always say we're very much alike. Both small town girls. Both [sic] a Pentecostalism, and we both carry an AK-47."

Parton kicks off another leg of her "Backwoods Barbie World Tour" on October 17th in Florida and continues through the middle of November.

"Extra's" full interview with Dolly Parton airs today.

Dudes Dolly is just being Dolly, why would you search this vid if you are gonna argue over who you want to be Prez I mean you should have searched this because you like Dolly Prob. FYI don’t say that Dolly wasn’t joking cause when was the last time that she wasn’t joking around? Its not Dolly’s falut that this Aired on TV and that all you JERKS are complaining about who you would like for Prez. So don’t blame it on Dolly, blame it on TV or maybe blame it on EXTRA!! So next time you search for Dolly maybe it’s time to actally think before you comment. (Sorry if I offenned any of you guys I just love Dolly ^_^ ) Don’t blame it on DOLLY ok? She is really REALLY nice and funny she waz just joking around OK?!?!?!

I’m french and I’m sure Dolly Parton was joking ! She’s pointing the fact that Sarah Paulin try to be a normal country woman but she’s not at all ! But this little document was cut off when Dolly laugh at her sayings …

Dolly Parton hasn’t got a russian rifle and she’s not supporting those weapons ! And Paulin is NOT a normal country woman, just dumb one, eing the shame of the beautiful country landscape of United states !

I think Dolly Parton is sincere and likes Palin, so do I. EXTRA is bias, they only show Obama in a positive way and McCain in a negative way. I, the same as many others have stopped watching EXTRA for being bias. EXTRA should only show what they were intended for, to show and comment about showbiz people, not politics. I don’t need EXTRA pushing their bias attitude down my throat, so I won’t watch your program, nor would I support your sponsors.

Nicole… Don’t belive the hype.

Borack Osama’s camp has done one good job: that of making the idiot sheep of American believe that a vote for McCain is a vote for “four more years of Bush”.

BS! it’s no Such Thing!

McCain is a statesman with a true Christian for a running mate.

Period!

Osama would make us a socialist nation - give away our resources and wealth and all the while apologizing for being American.

No Obama- no way, no shape - no HOW!
Thanks Hillary (you old beyach)

Just because many individuals do not believe in Sarah Palin, or Mccain does not make them liberals. I’m a republican and anyone would brains would understand that an idiot like Sarah Palin or John Mccain should not be in office. Sarah Palin cannot even answer a question in debate better yet run for vice president! If Mccain wins this election we are in deep trouble. Can’t you see the Bush administration, and his friends got us to where we are today? So if anyone is an idiot it’s someone who believes in this administration!

I am so sick of all of you whining liberals. You are a bunch of annoying idiots. Why is this even a big deal that Dolly Parton says she has something in common with Sarah Palin? Sarah Paliin is a very stong and smart woman. You all can follow Obama straight to hell. I swear liberals get on my nerves. GET A GRIP ON REALITY. Oh and all of you liberals who think Palin is unqualified, what about Obama? What on earth has he ever done to even put himself in the same league as Sarah Palin. All he is is another whining liberal who cries about everything. So Stupid.

Oh my Gosh!!! I am a small town country gal and I also was a Hockey Mom and I would never vote for McCain because we have had 8 years of Dumb in the White House and we do not need 8 years of Dumber and his running mate Palin who abuses power towards her ex-brother-in-law. We would be in jail if we called and harassed our ex-brother-in-law or ex-sister-in-law’s Bosses to fire them. She is out of control!!! I resent her comparing us Hockey Mom’s with Pitbulls!! Maybe the Hockey Mom’s of today are more violent then when my son was in Hockey! Our team was vocal in support and tried to show the best sportsmenship we could to our children.

Sarah Palin in being vilified in the press precisely because they are Always for the more liberal candidate. Period.
McCain made a Brilliant choice in Palin as she is not a Washington savvy crony and does not play the “game” as it is normally played - example by Biden (who will say anything, even outright lies, if it serves his purposes.
Same ole/ same ole - Dem=more government, more liberal agendy/ Rep=less government, less taxes, more conservative decisions.
An extreme liberal and man with less experience NOW - while at war? NO WAY NO How! NoBama! (Thanks Hillary :)

Oh PULEEZE!! Dolly was only being Dolly, for cryin’ out loud, and adorable as usual!

Sara Palin is NOT capable of running this country or in any way qualified in participating in running this country. Wheeeh! I sure don’t want her involved in running MY life, do you? Seriously!

McCain is a fool to think he could snare the female voters who supported Hillary with this womans’ drivel. Just proves how stupid he REALLY is.. as if there ever was a question. Of the 4 on the ticket, Biden is the most qualified. So that leaves Obama/Biden.

God help us not to get stuck with McCain/Palin and more years of Bush misery and ruination.

Ok whooo, we have a woman in the race, but how she got there is a farce. It was obvious to the rest of the world that she was ONLY chosen for McCain’s gain. The worse part is SHE ACCEPTED knowing this and that shows desperation on her part. She was thinking of herself and not this country. YES, maybe one day she will be ready, but certainly NOT NOW. For all these women who say “She relates with me, I understand her little winks”…..give me a BREAK. I want someone in office who has more to offer to this country than her folksy personality. Now she is on the attack mode because she has nothing else to offer in terms of a real plan. Palin supporters…..let the folksy blinders go and realize the truth. More and more each day conservative republicans are seeing through her and are disgusted with both her and McCain while some of you are star stunned because there is a woman in the race when you should be thinking of our country FIRST. Now Hillary, that’s a woman with experience.

If you fall for anything, you stand for NOTHING.I can’t believe we even have weak-minded American’s blind to McCain’s manipulative choice in an extremely inexperienced attractive unknown to help run this country while so many American’s are financially suffering. All he’s interested in is POWER & will do anything to manipulate us & obtain it, even if it means BETRAYING his country and ppl….again, & just as he betrayed his 1st wife. People that care about ppl that dont care about them are needy ppl & the element of some ppl the McCain/Palin ticket attracts is a perfect example, weak-minded, illogical or racist. McCain is all Bush policies & using Palin~ ‘You can’t call yourself a maverick when all you’ve ever been is a sidekick,’

Dolly, like Sarah has common sense and doesn’t put up with a lot of Bull. Politicians have put us in this mess and maybe some common sense in the White House can help get us out of it. As far as not buying Dolly’s Music, Dolly could buy the US if she wanted to.

She (Palin) has made her place in history, however I see her as a ‘red neck with a chignon’ and with McCain’s plodding, dull, put you to sleep personality, they make a perfect ticket to run someone else’s country. She isn’t where she is today for being dumb, but I do not want her in the White house in any capacity. I cannot say as others have that I can’t stand her since I do not know her personally yet I do understand their sentiment, she grates on ones nerves like a visit to the dentist.

“All of us small Town girls can relate to her - finally a REAL HUMAN BEING form the REAL WORLD in Government…..”

That’s what G.W.’s appeal was & look what having a regular guy in the White House has gotten us. The VP of the United States shouldn’t be someone we can relate to, but someone who can relate to us, AND is MUCH smarter, better educated, well-traveled, & especially in this day & age, not divisive.

For the people that say Sarah Palin did great on the debate, you are not educated as to how a debate works. It shows how twisted the US is and their prejudices for non-minority people. This ignorant woman did not answer any of the questions, and decided she wanted to talk about what she learned in her scripts. John McCain made a grave mistake selecting this fool as his running mate. I know he regrets it tremediously.

Palin is normal and one of us! Obama is only where he IS because of OPRAH!(by the way, she needs to keep her celebrity status OUT of politics)
