Levi Johnston to join Palin family at Convention

#8  Alaska rules may be in order for this analysis - seems that you should add 3-5 years to anyone's age until about 50, then start subtracting a year or two for every decade after.

There's a staggering ignorance of American history on display here - much of this behavior would be wholly run of the mill a century ago, which further begs the questions of the extent to which our bias has changed for the better or worse.

These kids seem extraordinarily typical, and strong.

#7  I don't know, just think of the fun if these kids start answering this shit with typical teenage wise cracks.

I bet they could have any MSM dweeb sputtering in under a minute.

#6  Just look at how the LAT had to twist the headline:

As the GOP turns: Sarah Palin's daughter's baby's father to attend convention

Disgusting! I wonder what headline (if any) they had for Edwards - not that teenage dalliance comes even close to adultery against a terminally ill wife on the 'scandal scale'.

#5  The tribe of Levi supplied the priestly caste of the Israelites, and later the Temple in Jerusalem. Moses was of the tribe of Levi. I didn't know it meant "attached", though. A good omen, for those who believe in such things.

#4  Jewish meaning of the name Levi is "attached."

#3  These kids are unbelievable. Must be a hell of a family to put themselves through this stuff.

#2  Don't you know that kid wishes he would have minded himself better now. Talk about unforseen consequences! I wish the media would drop this. Pisses me off knowing they swept Edward's mess under the carpet but are throwing these kids under the bus.

#1  Has there ever been a marriage performed on the floor of a national political convention? James Dobson and Rick Williams... stand by!
