So, Dolly Parton won Thanksgiving.

She's 77 years old and trending on Twitter. E

1. Saw that

halftime show, not bad at all. Not a country music fan but ...... how can anyone NOT like Dolly?

[Grokenstein]

3. How can anyone NOT like Dolly? Take a wild guess!

Stuart Baker, AKA Unknown Hinson, had some sort of mental break, mistook real life for the role he played on a cartoon, and screwed himself hard. Quote below mildly edited by me to alter one slur and clean up footnote markers.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unknown_Hinson

On August 13, 2020, Baker received backlash after posting controversial remarks about Dolly Parton, calling her a "bimbo" and "s--t" on his Facebook page in response to a recent news article concerning Parton's support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Not long after this post, the Facebook page went offline, but returned on the following day with the posts concerning Parton removed Baker subsequently posted a response to those who were upset, saying "Leave Liberals", calling them "UN-AMERICAN", stating that they "bow down to the ALL-KNOWING-MINORITY", and telling them to have fun "forsaking your own race, culture, and heritage."

The producers of Squidbillies fired Baker from the series over his remarks. Reverend Guitars of Ohio abruptly stopped marketing their Stuart Baker signature series guitars on August 14, 2020, and posted, "we are no longer associated with Unknown Hinson. We have stopped production on his guitars and we have removed him from our website."

2. Not into country, but Dolly always wins. She is a force of nature.

18. Not a country fan. But the lady transcends genre!

I love her madly.

21. She just released a rock and roll album!!

I heard her being interviewed on NPR last week, as the album was being released. She said if she was going to be in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame she she should do a rock album. She collaborated with many other "rockstars" on well known songs, and some of the songs she wrote just for the album. She said her husband is really into rock, not a fan of country.

I agree with you, I'm not into country music, and Dolly is a force of nature!
I've heard a few songs from this new album, and she rocks!

29. I was able to watch part of a show on her the other night

She sang a Queen tune, and said she loved Freddie Mercury. I'd like to hear the new album.

I have loved this woman since I first saw her as a kid on the Porter Wagner show. My Mom always watched it. I thought--she's beautiful, and she sings like an angel.

31. I first saw her on Captain Kangaroo

She sat on a stool with a plain background. She was in jeans and a shirt not flash. She did have big hair but we all did then. She sang a song about her dog which was the first one she wrote. She had a guitar for music. I was impressed.

36. Love it!

[calimary]

26. As well she should be!

[surfered]

4. A good person...

with a lot of talent and her head screwed on right.

[Duppers]

5. Wow!

The only thing anyone could pick about is her neck. Her plastic surgeon could've taken care of that too.

She beautiful inside & out!

[Rebl2]

7. My neck looks

like that. Don’t nitpick.

[tavernier]

9. I'm her age and been told I look pretty darned good,

But since I’ve never had a plastic surgeon “take care” of my neck or any wrinkles, I know I don’t look as young as Dolly. I have a feeling if she wasn’t a celebrity, she wouldn’t really care and would encourage women to just be themselves, with or without makeup or grease paint or pigtails or wigs or long skirts or short shorts.

6. And...

She donated $1m to Vanderbilt for Covid vaccine research…

[MLAA]

8. Talented, smart, witty, and very generous.

A real humanitarian.

10. Imagine her as POTUS.

She'd be respected the world over.

[Trueblue Texan]

34. I love Dolly, BUT...

...I do NOT like the idea of celebrities thinking they can govern or of voters just supporting them just because they like them. That's how we ended up with DJT. Governing is a SKILL and so is being a politician and both aspects of the job need to be treated that way. (This is why I do not support term limits) Having strong opinions, or a strong moral character, or a mouth that flap 190 mph (looking at you MTG and GYM) doesn't necessarily qualify one for the job. A strong moral character is important, but it won't be very helpful in a Congress that is deadlocked, for example. And if you can't get elected, how much governing is the candidate with good moral character going to be able to accomplish even if they have the other skills?

When we don't treat the office of the Presidency and other reps in the government with the respect that specific skill set deserves, we set our nation up for the three-ring circus we had during the DJT years and in our current Congress.

37. Moral character on par with the Carters.

Cares more about others than herself. Our country took a nose dive after Obama. May not recover. The Bidens are great. But the Pandora's Box of racism and hate is festering out in the open. Driven by unlimited money.

11. ❤️ ✿❧🌿❧✿ ❤️

[maveric]

12. An angel and a national treasure.

Love Dolly.

[kimbutgar]

13. When i saw her i thought she looked awesome!

You go girl !

[milestogo]

14. She's too old to be doing halftime shows...

NOT!!!

[Demsrule86]

22. I think she looks great and is perfectly able to do half-time shows...seriously,

the idea that women have a 'use by date' stamped on their foreheads is sexist...not saying you just a general comment.

[milestogo]

23. I totally agree and that's why I said NOT.

[Demsrule86]

24. I know that is why I made a point of saying my comment was not directed at you...

[spanone]

15. DOLLY WINS EVERY DAY!!!!!

[malaise]

40. THIS

Pure class

[SYFROYH]

16. Epic!

Still one of the best opening verses.

Tumble out of bed
And stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life

[calimary]

27. LOVE that one!

[a kennedy]

32. Love this, and love ALL her songs......she IS THE GODDESS OF MUSIC, PERIOD. 🥰

[jaxexpat]

17. The heart of an artist.

[twodogsbarking]

19. The band members looked as happy as one can get. No wonder.

[MagickMuffin]

20. Dolly won the Show, but, the Cowboys won the Game

They took command of the Commanders!

[Lochloosa]

25. 1 out of 2 ain't bad....

[Yavin4]

39. Come back when you've played a real team.

Cupcake schedule.

[cilla4progress]

28. This helps Biden

It shows that age is only a number!

[usonian]

30. Is she pro-labor?

Asking for a friend.

[dlk]
