Hey, Look at Bristol Now!

Bristol Palin on Dancing With the Stars: Via Cubachi, who also links Rachelle Friberg’s interview with Bristol, who broke my heart: I don’t read blogs . . . She really knows how to hurt a guy, huh? Here I fly all the way to Alaska and drive to Wasilla to hang out with the First Dude, […]
