How much do you think the Palin's paid Levi Johnston for his apology?

[WI_DEM]

A few weeks after reports surfaced that Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin were back together and raising their son, Tripp, Johnston appears to be attempting to repair his frayed relationship with the Palin family, and with Sarah Palin in particular.

"Last year, after Bristol and I broke up, I was unhappy and a little angry. Unfortunately, against my better judgment, I publicly said things about the Palins that were not completely true," Johnston told PEOPLE magazine. "I have already privately apologized to Todd and Sarah. Since my statements were public, I owe it to the Palins to publicly apologize."

Johnston later added a specific plea for forgiveness to Sarah Palin, who, in the height of the feud called Johnston an "aspiring porn" star.

"So to the Palin family in general and to Sarah Palin in particular, please accept my regrets and forgive my youthful indiscretion," Johnston said in the statement. "I hope one day to restore your trust."

1. Guess Levi's not making enough money on his own.

Maybe Sarah will show him how to babble behind a podium for $100K a pop.

[earth mom]

2. I bet Kathy Griffin's bummed out to hear this!

She and Levi were hilarious together and I'm sure she pissed the Palins off big time! :rofl:


Kathy even got Levi to say that he loved gays!

But the zinger is that Levi's Playboy issue sold out in San Francisco and is on backorder! :spray:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

20. That epidode in Alaska was a gem!

:rofl:

[earth mom]

21. Yes, it was hilarious, better than I expected! I saw it on You Tube in 5 parts.

Not sure if that episode is still posted on YT, but anyone can catch My Life on the D List for free on YT if they keep checking back because people continue to post the episodes even after they are removed. :evilgrin:

3. Keep your powder dry, Levi. Scheme is sara's middle name. Nt

[FedUpWithIt All]

4. The rumor is that he has rekindled with Bristol. n/t

[Joanne98]

5. I was wondering that myself. She's a skinflint so I'd have to say $100,000.00

Plus access to Bristol and his kid.

[asdjrocky]

6. If it was one penny then it's more than I care about the whole family.

[Lost4words]

7. sex with Bristol again was all it took!

and a great big welcome back from the loving arms of the half govenor palins family.

[joeybee12]

8. Is it too much to hope for that he's kissing up to get closer and get a video,

secretly recorded, of Sarah in some compromising positions?

[malaise]

9. I'm betting on a big public wedding

Lady Blah Blah is going to give you DUers a family values show to remember.

[opihimoimoi]

10. Big money see her as a long shot but with no one else in the GOP Bench

She attracts funding/assistance from the big boys....

part of it is image repair

GOP desperate

will gamble on remote success....Palin is remote but others are zero or non expendable...not to be wasted in 012

Palin will be "Throwaway candidate"

good for a lost fight...

Danger is her lack of alotta things....but who cares?

Its the Image for the time being until GOP recovers in 6 years..they hope...

The kid had a lawyer writing his apology...thats big hint of Money involved....

Very clever these guys

[Ian David]

11. I don't think it's about money. I think he's trying to get back together with Bristol.

If Kathy Griffin had tried harder to make him her own, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

[spanone]

12. was he lying then or is he lying now?

[JoePhilly]

13. Rove and the GOP are paying him off ...

He'll be taken care of financially ... if he plays his cards right.

[SoCalDem]

14. I doubt that he was paid anything

He's VERY young, and perhaps thought he would be given a celebrity life, and then it did not happen..


The people who eat up that sort of trashy celebrity are the same ones who probably LOVE Sarah, and the rest of the public sees him for what he is.. a sort of good looking kid with no talent for anything except knocking up a teen-aged girl..(something that most guys his age are capable of as well)..


So now he finds himself back in Alaska, and wants to see his kid, so he pretty much HAS to make peace with the family.

He did NOT write that press release, but I'm sure he agreed to have it done.

The best thing for those two would be to get away from the Palin-compound, and start a life of their own.

[HipChick]

15. He has pretty much abandoned his sister and mother..

and sold his soul to Palin

[tanyev]

16. "If you want to see your child and get back together with Bristol..."

No money necessary.

[ecstatic]

17. Notice he gave no specifics... But I don't blame him

He probably still loves Bristol and wants to work it out.

[msongs]

18. maybe he is now a eunuch psychologically so he can share the new found palin wealth lol nt

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

19. he probably just wants back on the gravy train

That kid probably isn't terribly employable,
