Potential VP's Daughter & Hockey Badboy Have Some 'Esplainin To Do!!!
Doe-eyed Bristol Palin, 17, and Jamie Lynn Spears have a lot in common. Both are white, pretty, young ladies who's family members helped thrust them into the national spotlight.
Oh, Bristol and Jamie have also become the poster twins for teen pregnancy. The only difference, however, is that Bristol's soon-to-be baby daddy is a self described "F---n' Redneck".
Maybe it's me, but something tells me that won't go over well with the brothers. I'm just saying!
A ruggedly handsome varsity hockey jock that obviously was not properly vetted, Levi Johnston is an 18-year-old who's dating VP pick Sarah Palin's daughter, Bristol, for about a year according to locals in Wasilla, Alaska.
The all-American teen twosome will make the Alaska governor a grandma at age 44 - just in time for Christmas.
And the pregnancy? It was an open secret in the close-knit town of 9,780. Wasilla High School Warriors' coach Bill Sturdevant said he never believed that talk. "He was the same kid from the beginning of the season to the end. No signs of anything like that," the coach said.
"He was a good kid to be around, with lots of friends. He was well-liked."
A telephone number for Levi Johnston's parents, Sherry and Keith Johnston, was disconnected.
Besides his hard play on the ice, Levi Johnston was also a bit of a hell-raiser off it - another reason Bristol may have been smitten. State troopers popped Johnston last year for snagging some king salmon out of season in Moose Lake, records from Alaska wildlife enforcement show. He had to pay $370 bail.
On his MySpace page, Johnston proudly declares: "I don't want kids." "I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing," he says on the site. He also warns that if anyone messes with him, "I'll kick ass."
Given the almost zero appeal the GOP currently has with African Americans right now, this is not a good look for John McCain in general and Republicans in particular. I mean seriously, how do you spin that bull???
This election is just the gift that keeps on giving. I'm already busy casting the movie.
My vote is Will Smith and Kimberly Elise as Barack and Michelle Obama, and Richard Dreyfuss or Colonel Saul Tigh of Battlestar Galatica as John McCain. To round this thing out let's go with Emma Thompson as Hillary, William Hurt as Bill Clinton, John Voight as Joe Biden, Julianne Moore as Sarah Palin, Hillary Duff as Chelsea, Robin Wright Penn as Cindy McCain, and High School Musical's Zac Efron as Levi. Stop me if you think I'm off track.Source
