Bristol Palin: Michele Bachmann 'Dresses a Lot Like My Mom'

By Rob Shuter Posted Jun 28th 2011 10:50PM

EXCLUSIVE: Bristol Palin, daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, says her mom has already made up her mind about whether to run for the White House in 2012 -- but will leave the big announcement up to her. That said, Bristol is more than happy to reveal what she thinks about someone who has announced they are running, Michele Bachmann, who Bristol believes has stolen her mom's look!

"I think she dresses a lot like my mom," Bristol tells me. "But a lot, a lot of women have done that the last few years. I do think it's odd, you know, seeing people with red blazers with their hair up with glasses."

Bristol added a giggle before continuing her thought about Bachmann, a Congresswoman from Minnessota. "I don't know if she's wearing glasses but you want to be hummmm, do you think that people don't notice you're dressing like my mom?"

The 'Dancing With the Stars' alum, who is promoting her new book 'Not Afraid of Life: My Journey So Far,' says that she's been through a lot for a 20-year-old Alaska girl and has stories that she hopes other young ladies will be able to relate to.

"The night with Levi is one of my biggest mistakes. I knew that if I wanted this book to have an impact on people that I was going to have to be completely candid and completely honest," Bristol tells me. "I put it all on the table just knowing in the back of my head that others can relate to these stories and hopefully learn from it."

Bristol wants to make it very clear that she is not an abstinence preacher, but rather someone who is really passionate about teenage pregnancy prevention.

"It's not ideal for anyone to be a teen mom and hopefully girls can learn from that story," Bristol tells me. "I hate the word abstinence. It reminds me of Sex Ed class. Ehhh. Its not all about abstinence. I wasn't going to have sex before I got married. For others, if that's not an option for them, you know, hopefully they will practice safe sex ... really safe sex. Just because you're on birth control doesn't mean you're not going to get pregnant."

Bristol tells me she has got a lot in common with her famous mom that she is so proud of.

"I think we are both driven, really motivated, to do what's right," Bristol tells me. "We are really religious and we know what's right from wrong. We both have a drive about us where we want to get things done for ourselves."

You really have to wonder why the Left seem to enjoy attacking women........ Is it something in their genes or is it a political hangup........?

Actually it is a unique ability to recognize extreme stupidity in some of the ultra conservative wingnuts

By lancelegstrong

Bristol is so concerned about those who look like her mother that she had plastic surgery to get rid of that Joe Palooka jaw line she had inherited from her

"We are really religious and we know what's right from wrong".
What? What a gigantic statement! Then, Bristol you would not have had gotten pregnant if you know what is right or wrong.

Are you (Palins) Bristol going to patent the style of your mom too?
Go away you people makes me puke.

By Sherry

Why in the world does anyone pay any attention to anything this little twit says? Why doesn't the media just ignore her, and maybe she'll go away.

Was this really THAT important that you had to write an article about it??

By Sonja42

Your JEALOUSY, & RESENTFULNESS IS SHOWING, LMAO.

JEALOUSY, JEALOUSY, LMAO.

Yeah I'm so jealous of a girl who's made a so called name for herself & money off her teenage sex life & unwed pregnancy.

By celestecroft

i wish she would shut the h*ll up. who gives a crap what she has to say?? i only clicked on this to leave the message because i'm sick to death of reading headlines with her name in it. you were young, you had unprotected sex, like thousands of other teenage girls. stop trying to blame it on booze and/or the boy.
and for gods sake, shut up about your mother. who cares about her??

By goodlookin'

Yeah, and Michelle can see Wisconsin from where she lives!

Bristol Palin lacks substance and style. Sarah Palin has no style, and so far nor does Michele Bachmann.

By Kentuckian

The liberal nut cases are attacking this young girl, because she,s Sarah Palins daughter. They can,t stand it because shes successful. If she was on welfare, and food stamps, these morons wouldn,t be so critical. Disgusting!

Soo successful. Teenage sex life & unwed preganancy leads to Dancing with the Has Beens, reality tv & book...yup just as successful as going to college, getting a degree, working hard day to day & not slamming her son's father in public for the future sake of her son, no matter the whom Levi is. Yes sireee thats success. Your views are rather skewed: no wonder you're a Palin supporter.

By MommyArtistLawyer

Kentuckian she's getting trashed because she has decided to make a career out of seeking public attention. So much of what she says is either selfish like denigrating her child's father in a tell all book, disrespectful and obnoxious, like the snide remark about Bachman or disingenious like telling people how religious she is. If you are sincere about your faith you don't tell people what a good Christian you are, you show them by the way you treat others.

What has Bristol done. Fools like you threw money at her,
If her name was not Palin she would be like any teenage mom on welfare and food stamps

By kathy

OMG!!! I guess Snookie should be very upset.. Bristol had plastic surgery to look just like HER!( and a little bit like the "Joker") And she is upset that someone is "dressing" like her mom...So sad...

By Bo

It's funny, I am not really religious, unlike Bristol, yet I managed to not have a child out of wedlock. Go figure.
