Todd offered to buy Bristol a car if she dumped Levi Johnston.
In an yet-to-be released interview with GQ, Levi Johnston, the ex-boyfriend of teen mom Bristol Palin (and father to her son, Tripp) reveals even more details about the dynamics of his relationship with Bristol and her family.

Johnston told GQ that Todd Palin, on multiple occasions, offered to buy his daughter a car if she would break up him.
 
Huck, the Gossip Columnist, imagine that! And to boot, someone who has been out of the news for almost six months and then to write yellow about her family?

Nevermind...

What!? Amicus offended by the poo-flinging? Amicus disgusted at the lack of dignity displayed by the Palin's?!
Say it ain't so ASSHO!!!
 
Wow. I thought Palin was still a force in the GOP. I guess she's just more roadkill under the bus. :rolleyes:
 
Every once in a while Palin's name comes up around my house... she makes a good cussword when you've done something like;

Opened a carton of month-old rotten chicken stew, that had been forgotten in the back of the fridge.

"Eeeew! Palin!" An expression of supreme disgust.
 
There used to be a British Member of Parliament called Reginald Palin ( or possibly Paling - I'm not sure) He was appointed Postmaster General in the 1945 post war Labour Government when Churchill was leader of the opposition.

Palin was no match for Churchill the master debater and one day when he had been baited unmercifully by Churchill he lost it altogether and shouted across the chamber at Churchill "You dirty dog, You are a dirty dog sir"

Churchill rose to his feet, looked around, milking the moment and smiling replied,

"Mr Speaker , honourable members will be well aware - of what dirty dogs do to palin(g)s"

End of debate.


Maybe that's the role of Palins in politics.:)
 
You sound like you disapprove. :confused: What would you have offered your daughter to dump Levi?
I just don't think it's good parenting to try to bribe your children to give up their intimate friendships. Especially when you're all God about how people should raise their kids. I know it's not easy being a parent; but expecting that your own kid should dump their boyfriend for a material reward doesn't send a very good message about forming intimate relationships.

Agree. And I don't think it's just not bribing children to give up intimate relationships--I never bribed my children to do the good thing. They learned to do the good thing because it was the good thing to do. Never a reward for good grades--they were their grades working on their future, and I made clear when they got to college I was moving to another country, so they could jolly well learn to take responsibility for themselves by then (and then I carried through on moving to another country--not that I didn't leave them a place to live and a car to drive).
 
My daughter is perfectly capable of;

1) taking care of her birth control (and safe sex).
2) dumping a boyfriend that isn't good for her-- even though she likes him.
3) making the decision on her own, although she discussed it quite a bit with her parents.

I've now raised three girls to adulthood, two of them I got when they were already teens. I did not try to force bullshit chastity on them, I armed them with knowledge instead. None of my three ever experienced an unwanted pregnancy, none of them ever needed an abortion.

But you and Mr. Omega are intelligent, clear-thinking individuals who have raised a family just like you. The Palins, on the other hand, are not and have raised a batch just like them. Karma, no?
 
Well, okay. But IF you were going to bribe your daughter to dump Levi, what would you offer her? ;)
