Sarah Palin's future son-in-law says he's an Alaska 'redneck'

The boyfriend of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's pregnant daughter describes himself as a "redneck who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes."

The description appears in a profanity-laden entry posted by Levi Johnston in his MySpace account. The entry was made private over the weekend, but not before several media outlets published parts of it.

Johnston, 18, is believed to be the father of Palin's 17-year-old daughter Bristol's baby. On Monday, Palin revealed that the unwed Bristol is five months pregnant.

In a statement, Palin and her husband said the young couple will marry soon.

But in Johnston's MySpace entry, the teenager hints that fatherhood was not in his immediate plans.

Johnston says he is "in a relationship," but on the question about how he feels about children he said: "I don't want kids."

He also says his true love is ice hockey.

Here's part of his entry before it was made private:

'I'm a f---kin' redneck who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes. But I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some s---t and just f---kin' chillin' I guess. Ya f---k with me I'll kick ass."

Status: "In a relationship."

Children: "I don't want kids

Levi Johnston is flying to St. Paul to appear with Bristol Paylin.

The GOP has a bit of a Peyton Place on its hands. I don't think they will have to worry much about getting high viewership ratings tomorrow.

Can we talk about Biden’s family yet?

I’d rather have a Peyton Place, than an Obama/Ayers violent weather underground.

So glad we can stay on message. Truly is the gift that keeps on giving. Ah well, I’m going to zip it about Palin, she’s very popular on here. I just hope she’s worth everyone’s affection.

[bolobaby]

Well, this *surely* disqualifies Palin!

Sigh.

Has he been indicted on fraud? Can we talk about that? Maybe just ONE article?

[BobbyT]

I would say good for him but I don’t quite believe it.

Myspace is nothing but crying “emo” kids with girl hair, girl jeans, and girl music. Oh and of course the meanest parents and worst (pampered, cell-phone toting, Daddy’s-car driving, mall-shopping) lives EVER!

[WilliamReading]

I think this could all play out very much to the GOP’s benefit. The boys in the liberal media have overplayed their hand.

Sarah will give a very good speech tomorrow, and will get a spectacular ovation in return.

As long as Levi shows up at the convention, things are okay. If he is a no-show .. . .

He's 18, and lives in a rough and tumble state, not the upper east side. I wouldn't expect him to say that his favorite way to pass time is to read Le Monde while drinking a skim milk Latte. I'm fairly certain William Ayers never described himself as a ‘redneck’, but when he was young he was plotting and carrying out bombings against US interests. I guess it's much worse to be a self-described Alaska Redneck.

Obama drew 38 million viewers on the night of his big speech.

How many people do you think Sarah Paylin’s speech will get, now that there is going to be a “love reunion” between her daughter Bristol and Levi?

Would like to hear estimates.

If I read that stuff on his myspace page, I would not let him near my daughter :(

[Coldwater Creek]

Mean Machine can’t sleep tonight, and per other threads is just looking for a fight.

Maybe a troll, as he claimed that he didn’t know about DU.

[cyborg]

As much as the numbers for the Obama speech! American tv audience loves a good soap opera.

[chicagolady]

Ems have Peyton Places to BUT the media doesn’t care to advertise them!

[thecabal]

Oh I’m sure he’s just another “concerned Republican” who has suddenly come out of the woodwork.

[Darkwolf377]

Ah well, I’m going to zip it about Palin,

There's no need to take the "I'll be quiet, you people all like her, so...sniff, sniff" pose. Your posts on this and other threads are very clear--you don't like the pick. OK, OK, we get it, already.

I wouldn't mind you discussing Palin if you didn't keep taking the "I'm the lone voice in the wilderness" pose. Just get your points out, and if they're not liked, so be it. Just because you don't have a popular opinion doesn't make you right.
