Be prepared to see more of Levi Johnston than you ever wanted to see. The 19-year-old who fathered a baby born out of wedlock to Sarah Palin's teenage daughter Bristol is about to pose nude for Playgirl magazine. Also, with Palin's book "Going Rogue" set for release this month, some publications may follow Vanity Fair's example in October by granting the high school dropout a byline.
In that piece, Johnston claimed that Palin did not nurture her children - or cook or clean - while husband Todd tinkered in the garage or slept on a black recliner in the living room.
This sort of Vanity Fair piece need not include verification by other sources, but there must be a paragraph with a seedy nugget in it. So Johnston wrote that the former Alaska governor sometimes called her Down syndrome son Trig "the retarded baby."
Appearing on CBS' "The Early Show" last week, Johnston released his latest salvo: "If I really wanted to hurt (Palin), I could, very easily, but I'm not going to do it, I'm not going that far."
Not yet, anyway.
Johnston garners more ink in British than American newspapers. But he frequently is fodder for left-wing blogs and among pundits who concoct phrases like "Wasilla hillbilly" - and cannot let go. He is the scratch for the itch of partisans so anxious to feel superior to Palin that they will consume any negative story about her, no matter how tainted. MSNBC talking heads like to bring up Levi Johnston.
Methinks if Fox News aired similar stories about a Democrat's daughter, there would be news stories questioning the right-leaning network's news judgment. After all, the accusations of an underemployed 19-year-old - who has a career incentive to dish out dirt on Palin - are not exactly credible.

Hey, Levi’s self important remember? . . . after all, he’s an “F’n redneck!”
“Levi Johnston, the discarded plaything”
ew.
Why aren’t Liberals concerned about when is Levi going to start supporting his child?
AND Rodriguez asked Johnston if he felt "used and discarded" by Palin.
Nothing like putting words in the guy's mouth.
This little section speaks volumes. No verification of facts and I suspect the later statement will not go unchallenged.
I know someone who would really enjoy being with you Levi, call Megan McCain you have so much in common, one other in your league Scott Peterson.
And of course we all know Levi's got a PhD in parenting and housework...
Levi is going to regret his extended teenage tantrum. What a fool.
Sarah really should stop issuing statements on this. If she must, then make a simple, “We all are sorry he felt he had to say that” and leave it at that.
If this dude Levi had any sense, he’d be terribly ashamed of himself.
I really doubt that Sarah or Todd will give this a pass.
So Johnston wrote that the former Alaska governor sometimes called her Down syndrome son Trig "the retarded baby."
You are joking, right?
When will this prick go ahead and get himself arrested using crystal meth or something and get put away for a while? What a loser!
What made him quit playing with it?
TOTAL LOSER~

1.How is he nurturing his child?
2.I would imagine most governors don’t cook or clean for themselves, they are pretty busy. Is he showing his sexist side in implying that because she is a woman she should be doing the cooking and cleaning?
3.Todd tinkering in the garage and sleeping in the recliner? Sounds like about ten million homes in America!
How about some news about Biden’s coke-addicted daughter?
I didn’t think so.
“Why aren’t Liberals concerned about when is Levi going to start supporting his child?”
Liberals don’t believe in fathers taking responsibility for the child...they believe it’s the government’s responsibility, or the village’s responsibility and when they have examples like Levi Johnston, it gives them street cred to raise taxes out the wazoo to raise the child the majority of which will be used to buy votes while the child gets tofu and gov’ment cheese.
