Levi Johnston Apologizes to Palin Family for 'Youthful Indiscretion'
<snip>

"Levi Johnston isn't just getting past his differences with Bristol Palin – he's also hoping to make amends with her famous mom.

"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," he tells PEOPLE exclusively. "I have already privately apologized to Todd and Sarah. Since my statements were public, I owe it to the Palins to publicly apologize."

Bristol added her own statement Tuesday saying, "Part of co-parenting is creating healthy and honest relationships between the parents. Tripp one day needs to know the truth and needs to know that even if a mistake is made the honorable thing to do is to own up to it."

<snip>

"Though they had been in a bitter custody battle, Bristol, who recently made her acting debut on ABC Family's The Secret Life of the American Teenager, has said she and Johnston want to turn "a new page here as co-parents … and (put) aside the past because doing so is in (our son) Tripp's best interest."

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

29. Or they threatened him because they are far more
powerful than a young man, with no powerful people behind him, who made the mistake listening to publicists before getting a lawyer.

what she has in store for America..

Technically is Bristol still practicing abstinence if she is doing it with her baby's daddy? I would not be surprised if she comes up pregnant again..

4. LMFAO.. when I called this kid an asshole
I was berated and slammed by many DU'ers for not bowing down to worship this "hero" who was standing up to the Palins.

Yeah he's a real fucking hero... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

19. Palin's ghostwriters are not that good and they definitely are not
classy. It had to be his manager or his people.

16. Ah! Levi's balls will be on display in the Palin trophy room
right next to Tawd's.
Levi, buddy, you will really, really be sorry. You should have moved to Sweden or somewhere else.

30. While I agree with your general sentiment
He does seem to genuinely care for his child. Sometimes you just have to deal with what is, especially where children and ex-partners are concerned.

22. Palin is a multi-millionaire now and is obviously tidying up "loose ends"
Edited on Tue Jul-06-10 09:26 PM by Turborama
I wonder how much it cost to buy him off?


John McaCain should publicly apologize for bringing Palin to everyone's attention.
