ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston have called off their second engagement after he told her he may have fathered a baby with another girl.

The other girl was not identified, but a pregnant ex-girlfriend of Johnston has publicly denied he is the father.

The 19-year-old daughter of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told People magazine that the ''final straw'' was when Johnston told her he was going to Hollywood to see a hunting show, but actually went there to star in a music video mocking her family.

Sarah Palin, the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, says she hopes her daughter will ''move forward in life with her same forgiving, gracious, optimistic spirit, but from henceforth she'll know to trust but verify.''

You mean the MUSIC VIDEO he STARRED in.


A smidgen of proofreading please!


That being said.... It is rich, isn't it? One making fun of her family!!! Well, they practically cry out for it.

Levi is such a big dumb jerk, they should get married. He's perfect for her!
in 20 or so years, he'll be out in the wilderness with his sled dogs all the time and she'll be faking a pregnancy.

35. Or could they mean "Jerry Springer the Opera"?
Edited on Tue Aug-03-10 11:39 PM by Turborama
I saw it when I was in London and it was hilarious!

Here's a clip with the Klan entrance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7V2Zmbx5Y0

Of course, I could be totally wrong and they're referring to something completely different.

Edited to add the Wikipedia article on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Springer:_The_Opera

Yes! Republicans & real family values are like oil and water.

When the voting masses get it through their thick skulls that "Family Values" is nothing but a hollow marketing ploy to Republicans, we might be getting somewhere.

18. How long did they make it this time?
2 weeks? 3? Family values at it's best. Give it another 6 months at most and they'll be engaged again!
