<p>That’s a humorous piece. Thanks for sharing. </p>
<p>It is like a soap opera.<br>
“As the Palins Turn”
“Many Lives to Live…Publicly”
“The Edge of Wasila”
“Days of Their Lives”</p>
<p>Some original titles even work:
“Another World”
“The Bold and the Beautiful”
“All My Children”</p>
<p>“Hairspray”
“Outer Limits”
“Dumb and Dumber”</p>
<p>How about:</p>
<p>“Washed up in Wasila”</p>
<p>“Mission Impossible”</p>
<p>How about: Refudiate This!</p>
<p>I would never presume to predict how many years the marriage lasts, but I do share the sentiment that odds are not in favor of them making it. Their age is just one of many factors that make me sadly suspect they won’t make it.</p>
<p>Hope to be proven wrong, though.</p>
<p>Well, a turbulent marriage and life on their part can assure continuous income from those interested in this saga. They got a tidy sum in payment for this marriage announcement alone.</p>
<p>[CNN</a> Political Ticker: All politics, all the time Blog Archive - TRENDING: Levi Johnston to star in music video - Blogs from CNN.com](<a href=“http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/07/24/levi-johnston-to-star-in-music-video/?fbid=2uwhvU-8XOo]CNN”>http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/07/24/levi-johnston-to-star-in-music-video/?fbid=2uwhvU-8XOo)</p>
<p>So I guess this will help heal the rift between the prospective in laws?</p>
<p>Interesting choice of music video that Levi has chosen to be in:</p>
<p>"CNN) – Fresh off his re-engagement to Bristol Palin, the Associated Press reports that Levi Johnston is set to appear in an R&B music video in which he will play a young man driven away from his love interest by the young woman’s mother.</p>
<p>Johnston, the fianc</p>
<p>LOL-- you couldn’t make this stuff up!!!</p>
<p>Looks like the reality show has bitten the dust. They’ve broken up again.</p>
<p>Really?
Well, they did get the cover of US Magazine.
They sure find ways to stay in the news! :rolleyes:
(in my view, playing this all out in public is not so great but they sought the limelight and so…)</p>
<p>OH, now I see…</p>

<p>It is like a soap opera…there are even “episodes”…
(unfortunately, it is all too public!)</p>

<p>to be cynical…maybe they thought Chelsea Clinton’s nuptials were getting too much press this weekend and so now Bristol and Levi are back in the news??</p>
<p>I KNEW “Mission Impossible” was the correct title for the show!! Oh well… alas there will be no show…</p>
<p>^^^Well, I say, “stay tuned”…“As the Palins Turn”…because another episode is sure to come.</p>
<p>If Levi is the father of the ex-girlfriend’s baby, I bet she forced him to have unprotected sex. Whatca think?</p>
<p>Apparently, Bristol connected up with one of Levi’s groomsmen in the aborted first wedding last winter. I guess it gets cold in Alaska and ------</p>
<p>It was great to see the classy remarks about Bristol and Levi on the Chelsea Clinton thread.</p>
<p>I must say that I find it all very sad.</p>
<p>It is very sad. Having kids of a similar age and a little older (and having once been there myself back in the stone ages) I know how hard it is to negotiate through all this relationship stuff - and that is without doing it in the full glare of the public eye. Must be awful. </p>
<p>Unfortunately they got thrown into the public eye and have not yet developed the sense or maturity to try and get out of it and keep their private lives private. I imagine the temptation to profit from their notoriety must be huge and hard to resist.</p>
<p>My kids aren’t in the public eye and have, thankfully (so far) not had to grapple with unwanted pregnancies but they have certainly made mistakes in their lives. I can’t imagine young people who haven’t but there must be some based on the parents who are so comfortable in ridiculing and throwing stones. I was raised to believe that the ugly you do will come back to your kids in some fashion. So I am grateful every day that my kids don’t permanently mess up their lives. They’re all home right now and so far so good on this week that’s ending!</p>
