Levi Johnston Is Writing a Palin Family Tell-All ‘For Me, for My Boy Tripp, and for the Country’
nymag.com/ ^ | 4-25-11

Posted on 04/25/2011 4:05:38 PM PDT by Justaham

Apparently having run out of all other recourse to stave off the decline of his infamy (and ability to make money from it), Bristol Palin's babydaddy, Levi Johnston, is finally doing what he's long threatened and writing down everything bad he claims to know about Bristol's mom, Sarah, and the entire Palin brood. "I want to tell the truth about my close relationship with the Palins," he said in a statement from his publisher. "My sense of Sarah and my perplexing fall from grace — how I feel and what I've learned." Johnston also insisted he's not doing it for the money. "I'm doing this for me, for my boy Tripp and for the country," he added.

(Wow, being cruel to people for the sake of America is all the rage these days.) Before you dismiss this book project as a bit of fluff from a 20-year-old who doesn't seem to actually have a lot to say, remember, there's always the chance Levi could hire a hilarious ghostwriter. Look at the title: Deer in the Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin's Crosshairs. There are already three or four jokes written into just that! (Although we would have gone with Wolf Under the Helicopter ourselves.)

The fact that Bristol had sex with this idiot doesn’t say much for the Palin genes. Don’t flame. I’m not feeling well.

He’s - again - run out of ways to make an honest living, so he will - again - appeal to the media and their appeal to the lowest common denominator - the bottom feeders in society that think so little of their own lives that their only enjoyment is soaking up the scandals about the people they want to be - celebrities.

Is he going to tell all about posing for Playgirl and slipping around with Kathy Griffin?

I’ve never seen Jersey Shore, no tv, but it sounds like he’d fit right in with the cast on trash tv.

Your post is idiotic. Your excuse is even worse.

To be perfectly honest, I didn't know he could count with his shoes on, much less write.

Levi says he’s doing this for his son, who he made a bastard.

Yeah right you’re doing it for the boy.

I agree with you. This guy is a dope and I cannot imagine what type of person would be attracted to him. I wish this guy got the hint that no one cares about him and that he would shuffle off to obscurity.

Levi, just a word of advice, “Verbs are your friends.”

Young Levi needs to find himself wiser advisors.

This clown is on his 16th minute, at best.

I wonder if he’s found a publisher for this who will really be able to push it. Otherwise, I can’t imagine many people buying the book. They’ll mostly get it second hand, from the magazines and no doubt from more TV interviews.

It will probably take months for the editor to take out all of the F-Bombs.

Anyone who would put a turtle on a fence post is stupid. Why else would they do that? And Bristol helped this guy get on top of the fence post.

See post number 5 again, and get it right - I said "worse than an idiot."

Even the best teenagers have been known to fall for the wrong people. I’d say they are very, very lucky they persuaded her she had made a mistake before they got married, if you believe that marriage means anything.

And, of course, many prominent families would have just sent her off, aborted the baby, and covered it up. I admire the Palins and Bristol for having and keeping the baby.
