Levi Johnston repeated on CBS' "The Early Show" on Wednesday his assertion that Sarah Palin called her son Trig "retarded," prompting a firm rebuke from the former Alaska governor.Sarah Palin responded to Levi's loose lips Wednesday afternoon, issuing the following statement through her personal spokesperson Meg Stapleton:
Mr. Johnston initially claimed in a Vanity Fair tell-all that Mrs. Palin had called her son, who has Down syndrome, "retarded," about which he reminded "The Early Show" co-anchor Maggie Rodriguez.
"I think the biggest hit we’ve had on, like, the Vanity Fair, you know, people really look on, is when she called her kid retarded," he said. "I mean, I've got a lot of people talking about that."
"We have purposefully ignored the mean-spirited, malicious and untrue attacks on our family. We, like many, are appalled at the inflammatory statements being made or implied. Trig is our 'blessed little angel' who knows it and is lovingly called that every day of his life. Even the thought that anyone would refer to Trig by any disparaging name is sickening and sad. CBS should be ashamed for continually providing a forum to propagate lies. Consider the source of the most recent attention-getting lies -- those who would sell their body for money reflect a desperate need for attention and are likely to say and do anything for even more attention."The former governor's reference to "those who would sell their body for money" clearly refers to Levi's deal to pose nude for Playgirl magazine. But Johnston told the "Early Show" that his photo spread would be done "tastefully," so that makes it okay, right? Anyway, that's what he can tell his son in a dozen years or so after the boy gets teased and bullied at school because his dad posed in the buff for a magazine read mostly by gay males. Rather, that's what he can tell his son if the Palins ever let him get near their grandson again.

What a comprehensive slush-head this guy is, good grief.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to put a sock in it- and of course the left is using this tool to the fullest, and man is he stoopid...
Here's what's stupid: The same left that hates Sarah Palin for not aborting her Down baby is willing to believe that she would use the word "retarded" when referring to Trig.
ReplyDeleteBut then, logical thinking is not a liberal strong point...

What is sad is the person interviewing knew he was not telling the truth...and that bit about he knew some really bad stuff on her...as many people that have looked into her life...from her e-mails to ever thing she has done since she was PTA president to governor of Alaska...also if these people knew (Levi and his sister) something really bad they would have sold it by now...
ReplyDeleteHe'd better hope his "tasteful little spread" in the skin-mag pleases the gays, because in a year's time, the only gig this cheap tramp is going to get is hosting some depraved sub-culture "parade" in San Francisco.
ReplyDeleteGood for the Palins, at least as far as responding to the ridiculous "retarded" allegation. I can just imagine sad-sack Johnston, poised on Vanity Fair exec Graydon Carter's penthouse floor, begging for (and receiving) "treats" every time he successfully repeats a line of coached, anti-Palin invective. The fact that this particularly low-caliber loser--and a "thing" like Graydon Carter--can even approach mainstream American networks (much less find a willing audience!) is testament to how degenerate our Nation has become.
Friends, when we take this great country back, let's work so hard to crush and utterly eradicate the liberal paradigm that it never, ever again has the energy to crawl any farther than the outskirts of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Deal?
Deal, Ian. And then some.
ReplyDeleteLevi Johnston is defenitely our decade's version of Pauly Shore. This guy doesn't know when to sit down. Nobody cares about him except the fringe who hate Sarah Palin.To mainstream America, this guy is a nobody.
