Levi Johnston Breaks Silence on Fatherhood, Palins to Tyra Banks
Levi Johnston appeared (with his sister and mother) on Tyra Banks' show today to discuss his relationship with Bristol Palin, fatherhood, hunting, and his engagement tattoo. Johnston denies that he received any pressure from Sarah Palin to marry once she became McCain's VP candidate.
The Johnstons are not happy they're being kept from seeing Levi's son Trip. Johnston says "It took a while for Sarah to believe us" when he and Bristol told her they were going to have a baby, and admits they weren't always having safe sex. He also reveals to Tyra that moose tastes like "moose."
Watch it, AFTER THE JUMP...
boy aint that bright, is he?

Thank goodness for the hard-hitting, investigative journalism provided by Tyra! Give her another award.

I agree. She should be given a lifetime achievement award by the queers for all her work advancing the cause. Chrissakes, she should get an official title at some gay pride parade.

He "admits they weren't always having safe sex"? Isn't that self-evident given that she got pregnant?
He didn't seem like a publicity whore when he first came to light, but he clearly adores attention and can't let it go. It would usually annoy me, but if it hurts Sarah Palin's future in politics---keep talking, boy.

FUCK! Sorry about the triple post (including this one). Levi Johnston's gonna age real quick-like...

I don't think he should be so judged on his smarts, poor guy. He's certainly polite.

"On Friday, a rep for the Palin family lashed out at Johnston for talking to Banks about his sex life with Bristol -- among other hot button issues -- without their permission."
Ooooo, nobody can do anything without Sarah Palin's permission. Heil, Frau Palin. Sorry, but it's his life and he can talk about whatever he wants to, just like his ex-mother-in-law when she's inciting violence against Obama or breaking glass with that voice.

Mmmm! Canned Moose meat.

It would be a nice change for Towlerroad to catch up with the rest of the country. Instead of concentrating on what the Palins are doing, how about paying a little attention to the fact that Obama's administration has been handed over to Goldman Sachs. That Axlerod made 5.2 million from hedge funds just this last year. The same groups that are being demonized by the administration, yet handed the keys to our treasury. Thats a little more importatnt to me than what a couple of teenagers are up to in the bedroom.

good going levi. you dodged a bullet with that one.
the last people you'd want for in-laws would be the palins.

I had to turn it off at after about a minute and half, when Tyra asked why he and Bristol "really" broke up, and that poor kid's virtually timid response. I suddenly realized this is none of my business.

the other day Sarah's sister-in-law was arrested on 2 counts of robbery. She was caught breaking into a home stealing cash and a finger print and shoe print match connected to her another recent burglary.
LOL
Pallin and gang are such trailer park trash

And another thing, I know my comment will get poo pooed by you guys since it reflects badly on your hero. But isn't it time we held a little feet to the fire? Ask yourselves as gay Americans, What has our new President done for us so far. Answer? NOTHING! All talk. DADT, not this year. Gay marriage, marriage is between 1 man and 1 woman, ask Joe. Gay rights, haven't heard much about that as Iraq is killing gays. As for the Axlerod windfall? www.truthout.org/040509Z
We can't blindly follow someone who just gives lip service to us while surrounding himself with homophobic religious zealots. Come on now, stand up for ourselves. Demand what's right. If Palin is so bad, what makes Obama any different if he just keeps quiet.

Wow, articulate isn't he?

Paul R got it right: even though I'm not interested enough to watch, I'm more than happy to let other people spend as much time and effort and money as they want giving Sarah Palin rope.

If he ain't getting nekkid, I ain't watching. *Yawn*
Posted by: clint | Apr 6, 2009 8:28:50 PM
Seriously, Is this even news worthy? Your insulting my intelligence. Come on T-road you can certainly do better than this.
Posted by: deiter | Apr 6, 2009 8:37:07 PM
I guess continuosly posting Sarah Palin shit like this is one way to try to get invited back to the Democratic national convention in 2012...you know, for people who need that kind of "status" symbol.
Posted by: paul c | Apr 6, 2009 8:54:52 PM
KJ, thanks...and lest there be any doubt---I didn't watch it either. I'd sooner eat rocks.
Posted by: Paul R | Apr 6, 2009 9:35:03 PM
Refusing to watch the clip doesn't make you a better person so stop the hate, mmkaaaaay?
Posted by: gabe | Apr 6, 2009 10:03:24 PM
Love how everyone is still focused on an old story about ex vice prseidential candidates teen daughter but are ignoring the story about the current vice president who dubbed himself the drug czar ir some otherbstshit own daughter being a coke head

I love all the Log Cabin fucksticks bitching about these Palin posts. Your shrieking is almost as annoying as Frau Palin's harpy voice, but it's also delightful. It's delightful because you wouldn't be shrieking if the ongoing Palin trailer trash circus weren't making your Party look like an (even bigger) laughingstock. Every time you shriek, we know yet another Palin family meltdown has hit a nerve.

Are the next kids the Palin daughter will inevitably have with some other clueless dope to be named Trailer and Trash, now that we already have Trip, Trig, Trap in that messed up clan.. As I watched the clip, I started wondering about that over-styled "do" on that kid. Are all str8 blue-collar guys of his generation so coiffed?

Glenn and Ousslander - LOVING you right now! 100% agree.
Jacknasty: If your party is so great and the conservatives don't have a chance of ever regaining power, why do you care what Palin does or does not do? You and people like you only attack because you are insecure.
Again, the election is over, Palin lost. She is not VP and likely not going to be President. Let it go. Focus on our current President and be fair with it. He's not perfect. Glenn makes a great point - why do we accept sub-par support from Obama and total non-transparancy? Forget the past. Lets talk about now.
