How? Well, Bristol Palin might be calling off her engagement to Levi — because he knocked up her ex-best-friend. And Levi’s ex. Lawdy, this sounds like a bad episode of Gossip Girl. Wasilla girl. Whatever the hell.
The Palin family isn’t exactly known for being discreet, withdrawn, or in any way rational. There are just, no words to describe the dysfunction. Literally, while half of their family is angling for tabloid covers, the other half is hunting moose and mulling a run for the Presidency of the US. That’s what we’ve downgraded to. We’ve gone from the founders of the nation, premiere generals and military strategists, powerful lawyers and public scions – to redneck families who have no idea whether or not their new members are running around and getting people pregnant.
I hope every election is like this. Where badly behaving families go against over badly behaving families for national political grandstanding. That’s change I can get behind. That’s change I can support. That’s a few changes away from an episode of Maury.
But according to Radaronline, who have broken stories like Mel Gibson behaving like a member of the craziest faction of the Aryan Brotherhood, Bristol Palin has been sad learning that Levi Johnston might’ve impregnated his ex-girlfriend, Lanesia Garcia.
Hear that? That’s a tidal rush of banjos. Let them just wash over you.

Ok so is OBVIOUS that the writer of this story is anti-Palin...I don't have a prob with that...But when you try to make the people look bad because you don't like them then that IS NOT news...Just an opinion. Be a reporter not a person only giving an opinion. And don't judge the family as "rednecks" unless you have been around them, walked a day in their shoes, etc...Everyone has problems and no one is perfect...Levi is NOT the only guy to knock up multiple girls, even BFF's of ex-BFF's, and he's not the only engaged guy out there to do it either.

Rachel, the other people who ARE going out and knocking up their ex's etc aren't part of families running for political office to represent this country as a major political face. Look what happened with John Edwards. Once a politician, now a ruined face of America. This wasn't some biased viewpoint on the Palin Family Woes, it was a disclosure on the dysfunction of a family who may some day try to run this country. With this sort of disorder in a family, I would hate to see what sort of disorder would be instilled into our government. If they can't keep a small number like that under control, the USA is beyond their ability by numbers and measures that have no words to describe.
