Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told Oprah that she is willing to bury the hatchet with Levi Johnston, baby-daddy to her first grandchild, and says that he is welcome at her Thanksgiving table.
Palin told Oprah that she's trying to move past the negative and concentrate on life without drama. Johnston, she says, is part of the family and she's willing to "bring him into the fold" and under her wing.
"And he needs that, too, Oprah, I think he needs to know that he is loved and he has the most beautiful child and this can all work out for good," she says in the interview, which is scheduled to run Nov. 16. "It really can."

Yeah, that was the most I’ve ever seen her act like a politician.
However, it also shows how stupid Levi is for actually believing her enough to decline.
All of this will play out in court. Sarah’s offer will be seen as favorable while Johnston’s reply won’t. Levi is too big a tool for the left to realize everything he does pushes him that much farther away from any relationship with his son, court ruled or otherwise.
Would be interesting to see just how much money Levi is getting from Dem/Anti Sarah ops for his public bashing of the Palins.
And has the media ever asked Levi how often he sees his child? Are the Palins actually keeping Levi away from his baby or is Levi an absentee sperm donor who really isn’t try to help raise his son?
What a disrespectful little jerk Levi is. I hope and pray he gets busted with cocaine or a gun or something soon. Then I will go over to huffpost and ask the libs, how’s that hero of yours working out for you?
He’s eating crow for Thanksgiving.
If Palin wants to “move past the negative and concentrate on life without drama”, she’d do well to steer clear of Levi, at least until he shows that he’s mended his ways. Right now, he’s a walking mountain of negative drama. That young man urgently needs to learn that words and actions have consequences. Even if (big IF) every word he’s said and insinuated is true, taking money from tabloidy print and broadcast media outlets to spread dirt on your baby’s grandparents shouldn’t be a ticket a warm welcome at their Thanksgiving table.
He’s a useful idiot to the left.
ROFL! Can you imagine? That Thanksgiving table would be a real riot.
I read his mother was arrested for oxycontin. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
He’ll get a few bucks from the libs and the fame will go to his head, right up through his nostrils.
Sorry, Sarah, Levi will be too busy Schwinging his Schwang for The Boys at Sean Cody for Thanksgiving.
Gobble Gobble!
Best,
Chris
It was nice of her to extend the offer. However, I can imagine how uncomfortable T’giving dinner would be, sitting there with the ex and her family. The last place my husband would have wanted to eat a dinner would have been with his exwife and her family, no matter how courteous the invitation, especially in the first few years after the breakup. In a couple more years, things might be friendly enough to where a shared meal is no big deal.
I know Tripp is living in their home but quite honestly, the courts should look at things between the parents, not the grandparents. Levi has a lot of growing up to do, no doubt about it. But family court shouldn’t take a grandparent’s invitation or the declining of said invitation into account. He and Bristol are the child’s parents, they need to work things about between themselves.
I don't take it as a political move but rather a "kill him with kindness" move. She probably is so thankful that her daughter didn't marry the jerk that she would welcome him once a year, every Thanksgiving-- as one of the things to be most thankful for.
It arouses the least amount of suspicion, and you can spring the trap when he least expects it.

Sarah Palin may have invited her daughter's babydaddy to Thanksgiving dinner, but the future Playgirl centerfold will not be passing the yams with the Palins. He turned down her offer, saying she's "full of it."
In an interview he just finished with Playgirl editor-in-chief Nicole Caldwell, Levi says of the invite, "You could tell by her laugh she was full of it." The petition to come over for some turkey was part of a segment the former Alaska governor taped for an Oprah episode that airs Monday.
Levi also that it was a "nice gesture, but she didn't mean it" and if he went, it would be "awkward." He also tells Entertainment Tonight, "Either she's telling a little spoof here or she's going to ask me in the next couple of days. I couldn't care less to go with Sarah Palin, but I want to be with my kid. It would probably be a little weird. It would be uncomfortable, but I'd go for my son's sake."
Well, between Levi's upcoming issue of the magazine and Palin's book, we think that a Thanksgiving dinner together (promptly followed by a food fight) would be just the photo op these two need to keep their prolonged dance of death going.
As far as we know, Bristol may have asked Levi over for Thanksgiving. But because its Sarah's home, she just reiterated the invitation. Whether or not the invite was sincere, we'll never know. But it was a very good tactical move.
Levi will probably say Sarah is being all nice because she's afraid he'll tell everyone what he 'has on her'. Yeah right.
Huh?
He mocked it as insincere and said the only reason he'd go would be to see his son. Sounds like his advisors are doing well with his lines.
