"Bristol did not even know Levi was going on the show. 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," says the statement from the Palin family rep. "Bristol's focus will remain on raising Tripp, completing her education, and advocating abstinence," the statement continues. "It is unfortunate that Levi finds it more appealing to exploit his previous relationship with Bristol than to contribute to the well being of the child." - Adriana

Blah blah blah. Bristol advocating for abstinence is like the GOP saying they're the party of small government. *rimshot* - iTad

Next up: Sarah vs. Levi on the Springer show. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

LOL @Tad. I have a few friends who had children before they were 17 and they've all gone the same route, acting as if they were virginal. <eyeroll>. - Anika

Why act virginal when you're not. It is what it is you know? ; ) I know what you mean about your friends. I have a few that have done this as well. - Adriana

Levi: "I'm pretty sure she knew. Moms are pretty smart." Sarah Palin: "We're disappinted that Levi... is enganging in flat out lies, gross exaggeration..." - stretta

A smoker who is dying of lung cancer is the best spokesman to warn about the consequences. I don't see the problem with her advocating abstinence. She's said many times that she loves her baby but she wishes she had waited ten years. That's not "acting virginal." - Dawn

I think the issue, Dawn, is that Bristol's mother is an advocate for abstinence only education when she has a pretty clear example that it doesn't really work. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

I agree with Kevin, Dawn. The problem is not Sara Palin's daughter. She is a teen, she is young, she is learning and growing and developing into a woman. She made a mistake. But the thing is this...Sara Palin cannot say Levi is engaging in gross, flat our lies and exaggeration. She wasn't in the bedroom with them. What he said was that some times they used protections and others they did not. It isn't an exaggeration because her child did in fact get pregnant. As for advocating abstinence, i don't think anyone would have a problem with her advocating this. That is up to each individual and anyone that would find a problem with it would simply be ridiculous. - Adriana
