Palin Says New Parents Levi and Bristol 'Working Their Butts Off'
FOXNews.com ^ | 1/1/09

Posted on 01/02/2009 7:20:53 AM PST by Slings and Arrows

Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin says both her 18-year-old daughter Bristol, who gave birth to son Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston on Saturday, and fiance Levi Johnston are working hard to balance schoolwork with their new parental obligations, People Magazine reported.

"You need to know that both Levi and Bristol are working their butts off to parent and going to school and working at the same time," the Alaska governor told the magazine in a phone message. "They are certainly not high school dropouts."

Any suggestion to the contrary "harms Bristol's reputation and Levi's reputation and their chances for good work opportunities," Pail said.

I’m not disappointed in my family. I’m just honest about them. None of us has perfect families. They do things to hurt us but as parents, we love them anyway.

Hasn’t she learned yet that the msm are not her friends and never will be? I sincerely hope she can figure out how to get around them like Reagan. In the meantime, she needs to quit giving them ammunition.

As a social conservative, I would note that live birth and abortion were not Bristol Palin’s only options. There was also not getting pregnant in the first place and maybe even... keeping her legs together until she got married. If many on even the Right no longer consider out-of-wedlock pregnancy and birth shameful, then marriage is purely optional, and talking about respect for the institution becomes farcical.***

Shhoosh everyone - Saint Mog is speaking....

Get over it and stop being part of Liberal media. NOTHING can diminish a solid Conservative like Sarah.

Wowee - claiming to be a Christian and so judgmental?
You need to ask the good Lord for forgiveness.

I’m sure you’re are getting your knickers into a twist because Bristol didn’t have an abortion. Typical liberal.

Here are just a few choice posts from around the gossip blogs: **

Haven’t you got anything better to do with your time? If I was a Psychiatrist, I would think that the person lifting posts from gossip blogs is delusional and should be committed. It’s amazing, not really, how the left is showing how ill they really are.

Mental Health Insurance was part of the BAILOUT!!

God doesn’t call us to abandon standards or give bad behavior a pass. Calling me a liberal and an abortion supporter shows you have some gift for invention, but amounts to nothing more than straw man tactics.

I’ve been doing research on my entire family back to my grandmother’s parents, etc. She was born a couple of months after they married. My dad was born out of wedlock. My sister had a couple of children out of wedlock and THEY have had chilren out of wedlock, and now my great niece is pregnant, no husband. This is a generational ‘curse’ as we say in christianspeak. Even in my mom’s family (all in Norway) there were many children born out of wedlock or ‘just in time.’ I’d like to see my generations do things differently and believe me, I talk to my granddaughters about it all the time. I pray it works.

My uncle always had a saying, “The first child can come at any time but the second one takes nine months.” Back in the old days, it was common b/c people actually still got married. Now they’ll have the kid and never get married or get married when the kid is age six or something.

To defeat you enemy, you must know them, how they think, and how they operate.

Call me what you want, but I am living in a very realistic place where I KNOW what the enemy is capable of.

Be complacent all you want. I will not be nor will I stand by and let ignorant people defile a family (the Palins) the way the left has done- completely unchallenged by any conservatives, including many here on FR. Its time to take the nice gloves off and get real.

I am not living in fear. I just think Sarah is contributing to her own demise politically. I am ending this chat with you. Do not post to me again. It’s over.

And movie stars are no example. Do they ever get married anymore before having a baby with their fiancees? Doesn’t look like it.

So Bristol is a possible future Republican nominee for President?

And Sarah should pay heavily for Bristol not having an abortion?

WHO were the key players in the Old Testament? Moses a murderer, David an adulterer etc etc Get my point?

PS Again I ask, do you have any kids? Do they ALL walk on water?
