Levi Johnston. A High school drop out?
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 06:50 AM by Fluffdaddy
18 year old dad and husband to be...............A High school drop out. just lovely

http://www.adn.com/palin/story/513880.html

Excerpt from the link:

“Sherry Johnston said she was worried about her son dealing with all the attention. She said it is difficult enough for teenagers to deal with any pregnancy; having the entire nation watching makes it worse.”

“Levi Johnston, a hockey player for Wasilla High School, is not listed on the team roster for 2008-09, and his mother wouldn’t say if he graduated. She said simply he’s no longer a student and any further information would have to come from him.”



“This is out of my league,” Sherry Johnston said. “I’m just a country gal, and I want to keep it that way.”





Yes, what a bunch of folk

2. From what I read here, the mother is more sensible than Palin.
Who wants their pregnant teen to be in the center of a national event?

13. The kiddo Sarah Palin supposedly had 4 months ago, while a cute little bugger,
isn't exactly her little bugger. That's what the poster was alluding to.

The thing is, I think it's honorable (and more common than you might realize) that Sarah Palin stepped up to the plate to raise her daughter's child. If she just hadn't lied to cover it up. It's always the cover up that gets one in trouble. And that she created such an elaborate cover up which is strange, but it seems much is strange with Gov. Palin.

6. Exactly, however the truth will never be known now that we have
a coverup for the coverup.

14. Truth has a way of coming out...
Sometime it takes a while, even a long while..

But I think it will eventually come out.

17. Baby cover-up
Hopefully the National Enquirer will get the birth certificate
of baby Trig.  Believe me, they will leave no stone unturned!

21. It's hers all right. The question is, who is the DAD?
All this secrecy might be because of the affair Sarah Palin supposedly had...

9. Palin will have him in the Army and out of the way in Iraq soon.
If she's really pissed with him, she'll make sure he's in a very dangerous place.

8. Levi was home schooled.
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 12:46 AM by Divernan
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasilla_High_School

According to Wasilla High School Principal Dwight Probasco, Levi Johnston plays on the school's hockey team but does not attend the school. Johnston is home-schooled through the Mat-Su Correspondence Study School in Wasilla, Alaska.<9>

Palin's daughter, 17-year-old Bristol Palin, who became pregnant with boyfriend Levi Johnston's baby, attended Wasilla High during her junior year but transferred to West Anchorage High School during the middle of the school year for unknown reasons.<8>

www.frontiersman.com/articles/2007/05/25/news45.txt

(I/m having trouble getting the links to work - if you google Wikipedia for Wasilla High School, and general google "Mat-Su Correspondence School", you'll get to the info.

16. With the highest drop out rate in the country, education is not a priority in AK.
They will claim to be home schooling Bristol.

19. That's why Palin is Governor there.
When you have an uneducated populace, you tend to get morans in office.

I'm sure Palin's got them thinking that all that book learnin is for elitists.
