Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is firing back at her grandson's teenaged father, Levi Johnston, for comments he made on TV about the circumstances surrounding his son's conception.
On an episode of "The Tyra Banks Show" to air Monday, Johnston, 18, claims that Gov. Palin did not think that he and her daughter Bristol were being abstinent when they were together.
"Bristol did not even know Levi was going on the show," Palin's rep tells People.com. "We're disappointed that Levi and his family, in a quest for fame, attention, and fortune, are engaging in flat-out lies, gross exaggeration, and even distortion of their relationship."

Hey Johnston, two words...Cindy Sheehan.
Once they’re done with you, you’ll be discarded like a can of pop.
I’m disappointed she reacted to Levi’s appearance. Should have let it go, risen above it .. but that family has taken so much abuse .. but Levi is and will always be her grandson’s father ... so he and she will interact the rest of their days. This should have gone uncommented upon.
I wasn't, but many FReepers were. I thought it was disgraceful that he was up on the stage with the family. Why did the family think it was a good idea to parade their pregnant daughter's boyfriend on the stage with them, or even their pregnant daughter?? It made it look as if they condoned the situation with Bristol & Levi. I saw it as a slap in the face to Sarah Palin (from Bristol). It goes against all of Sarah Palin's values, and yet there she was on the stage with her pregnant unwed daughter, and her daughter's boyfriend.
But how did you know Levi was bad news? Many people around here thought he cut a fine figure at the convention.
Cut a fine figure?? As the boyfriend of the pregnant teenage daughter?? It was an embarrassment all around. Neither of them should have been on the stage.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm even on a conservative site at all.
I always found it humorous that the people most likely to use terms like “trailer trash” are the same people who think that living on top of each other in polluted, crime-infested cities is the height of sophistication.
Here’s Sherry Johnston’s attorney:

He does like to get his rivals out of the way...too bad people on FR are aiding and abetting Hussein.
She's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Is her 15 minutes up yet?
What?? Around 6 months ago, he was being hailed, by some here, as the most eligible bachelor around.
What happened in the interim? /sarc
LOL - good point.
Fact is, Levi is redundant now. It is the convenient thing to do.
LOL
I support Sarah and her family, but I think you are stretching it in attacking Levi. He is an immature adolescent who obviously has a troubled home. The media are exploiting his circumstances and his ignorance.
Give it a break and quit attacking a clueless young man who has a lot to learn.
If he is corrupted, it will be by those around him who seek to use him.
Bumpin’ your great post!
Geesh... now that sure is a SURPRISE... not.
Political machine (DNC) moving hard on certain upstart in Alaska who might be a threat to the obi-ONE.
Great post. I agree totally with your comments.
lol
He is going on national TV for the bucks $$$ together with his mother and sister, "spilling their guts" over Bristol Palin's private life and tarnishing Sarah with rumors and lies.
Excuse me... this is the most contemptible, disgusting treachery.
There is no reason for him or his "family" to be on TV pulling off this crap.
