Are you serious?

Dancing with the Stars is getting out of control.  Across the country viewers of DWTS are outraged Bristol Palin, daughter of Sarah, has moved on to the final three.  It has gotten so bad that a man in Wisconsin shot his tv because Bristol Palin danced so badly. On the front page of the Albuquerque Journal on Friday (11/19) there was a front page story all about it. The reporter even tried to contact the head of the state Republican party. People were outraged and even called the local ABC affiliate to voice their complaints.  I confess I have not watched DWTS and only watched it once when bull riding champion, Ty Murray, was on. He got a lot of grief because the judges said he moved like a robot and consistently gave him low scores. He did make it to the semifinals because of Professional Bull Riding fans like me. Most of the tv I watch are shows taped on the DVR.  Even if I watched a show that had voting by the time I get around to watching the show, the voting is closed. Apparently the Tea Party is stacking the votes for Bristol. This is just out right dumb. People call and vote. Anybody who has a phone and/or computer can do it.  From the blogosphere it looks like Jennifer Grey will win.  She should know how to dance. She was in Dirty Dancing and her father is Joel Grey, dancer and choreographer.  But who cares. I just think it’s really sad that people take DWTS so seriously and would get so upset over Bristol Palin’s dancing because her mom is Sarah Palin. Dancing with the Stars is a joke.  The majority of the contestants aren’t stars. They are one shot wonders who are way over their 15 minute time limit.  I don’t think Bristol Palin should even be on the show. She’s not a star.  She’s just a kid from Alaska.
