(9,998 posts)Because she's in Country Music I suppose. She seems to be more outspoken as she's gotten older. Perhaps more of a who cares at this point attitude.

(5,729 posts)AKA "Unknown Hinson" over her decision to remove "Dixie" from the name of a Dollywood restaurant. It cost Baker multiple jobs and endorsements, but I imagine the culture-warrior cult probably threw a bunch of shit at Parton over it. If she was ever Republican, she's probably had second thoughts.
Baker's a damn fool. Having grown up around that sort of trash I loved the satire of Squidbillies; intentionally or not Dan Halen was a flawless warning about Donald Trump.

Thank you, Dolly, for your classy and lovely words about RBG. Both of you have given us years of your talent, hard work, chutzpah, and strength. I stand in awe of you both. And I am grateful to have occupied this planet while you both inhabited it.

She is one of the few things that I can be proud of being from East Tennessee.
