Palin Daughter Pops

1230palin.jpg

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is officially a grandmother. Her daughter Bristol, 18 (pictured with baby brother Trig) and former high school hockey player Levi Johnston, also 18, welcomed son Tripp on Saturday.

Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston was born at 5:30 AM, weighing 7 lb., 7 oz. "We think it's wonderful," Colleen Jones, Bristol's great-aunt told People magazine. "The baby is fine and Bristol is doing well. Everyone is excited."

Levi's mother, Sherry Johnston, was recently arrested on multiple felony counts of involving the drug Oxycontin. Bristol is currently living in Wasilla, and working on her GED. Levi is now an apprentice electrician.

Yesterday, a spokesperson for Governor Palin said, "This office will not be issuing any statements on [Bristol's baby]. We're here to talk about state government and that matter falls outside of that."

babies do not chose their parents and can not be blamed for parents mistakes.
Your article lacks class and taste and I hope the silly writer does not have children.

All the stories that extra covers regarding the “president elect” seem fluffy, light-hearted, and rather bubble gum. All the extra stories regarding Sarah Palin are in smirk, distaste, and degrading. I’m seeing quite the PATTERN here!! Truly childish, and disgusting!

Sarah apparently should be held accountable for all the un-expected pregnancies in the U.S.? What, ..she’s the newest and most convenient TARGET OF BLAME. For a nation full of ignorance that NEVER EVER wants to take responsibility for themselves? Spoiled rediculous Americans that love to point fingers, and take the moral high ground when it comes to someone elses house, or family!!

TWO WORDS.. “GLASS HOUSES”..

Words from God.. “those whom are without sin may cast the first stone”

Face it.. this is quickly becoming a selfish, greedy, dark nation —our government has taught us all we know. We want what we want, and to hell with anyone else around us! I’m often embarrassed to be an american.

yeah blame Sarah for all teenage pregnancies. if all else fails play the blame game. that always makes losers feel better. teenage pregancy is a problem in america. has been even before sarah came into the picture. now that’s an outrage to be blaming one particular person for all teenage pregnancies across america. you need to put a cork you know where.

Oh please, put a cork in it! The Bristol babymama drama is enough, you don’t have to expand it because somebody tells it like it is.

Agree with Em, those “OHMIGOD ur so haaaaaawribble, how dare u say baad words about da myrakul of birf” comments are typical teenage drivel.

But I can tell you, regardless how you call it, a teenager having a kid is a dumb idea, plain and simple. And the worst is that people like granny Sarah make sure that more teenagers will go down the same unfortunate road. That’s the real outrage, not some writer’s choice of words.

If you think that the Palins and anyone like them are so stupid and inept why do you bother to comment. Like most liberals you need to get a life.

EXTRA! EXTRA! HOW COULD YOUR STAFF WRITER BE SO CRUEL? OF ALL THE WORDS THEY COULD HAVE USED, THEY HAD TO USE THE WORD “POPS” WHAT AN INSULT. HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE THAT EXTRA CAN STOOP TO THAT LOW LIFE LEVEL. EXTRA HAS NO CLASS WHATSOEVER. THE CORRECT TERMS ARE BIRTH OR BORN. BABY TRIPP IS AN INNOCENT BABY, WHAT DID THAT BABY EVER DO TO EXTRA TO GET SUCH AN AWFUL HEADLINE? IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU CAN RETRACT THE STATEMENT AND USE APPROPRIATE WORDS. PLAIN DISGUSTING!!!!


- STAFF WRITER IS CRUEL

A BABY WAS BORN! NOT POPPED. SHAME ON YOU EXTRA TV WRITER, YOU HAVE NO FINESSE AND NO CLASS AND APPARENTLY NO EDUCATION. YOU ARE COLD BLOODED! CONGRATS TO THE PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS OF BABY TRIPP. THE BABY IS NOT AT FAULT HERE, HE IS AN INNOCENT CHILD AND THE MEDIA IS CUCKOO SOMEWHERE IN THIER PEA BRAINS.

Congrats to the new family…a great looking couple I might add. Thats what the liberals really hate. Take a look at any inner city and see the masses of single moms collecting welfare with many different fathers….and producing kids that end up being criminals preying on the rest of society. The author should take note of how many popping out moms voted for Obama.

You people are disgusting…if your wording of the headline is any indication of how the liberals will rule and trash people who don’t think like them then I fear for this country. You are pathetic.

This entire article is tastless and a put down. Remember, that children do not select their parents. They do not asked to be born!!
Our country has more important issues, at hand, than to dwell on a very poor piece of journalism.

Hurl a shoe at the Palins for being a very poor family role model.

I bet Bristol signed the “abstinence” pledge before getting knocked up. Thank God these hillbillies will not be in the White House as the USA tries to regain the moral high ground with neighbors around the world.

Your headline is repulsive! This is disrespectful to the whole female population.
