I thought this show had already been canceled by an overwhelming vote of the American people.

Well, well, whaddya know...

1) Bristol Palin may be the smartest one out of the
whole Palin clan.
a) She's bucking against that whole abstinence tripe.
b) She apparently said "Fuck off!" to that whole
"you must marry the hick that knocked you up"
thing.

It seems like she's the only one thinking about what's in her best interest right now… politics and mama Sarah's career be damned. Never thought I'd say this, but good for her. Somebody, anybody, offer her an opportunity to get out of Wasilla...the deprogramming didn't take, she still has free will, quick before the pod vines reattach!

Is Greta going to do another interview? Or is FOX done with this, now that Bristol is just another unmarried mother.
(though...personally, I'm glad they aren't getting married. they both get a shot at moving on, growing up and finding some sort of happiness)

It seems to me that the cultural differences between the Palins and the Johnstons are measured only in quantity of cash, presence or absence of political power inside the families, and the presence or absence of wheels attached to the bottoms of the two households.

I mean, Johnston might BE (air quote) white trash (close air quote) but Bristol surely must recognize that she is, at the end of the day, a teenage mother -- a quintessential quality often ascribed to (air quote) white trash (close air quote).

Not that there's anything wrong with being a baby mama. I'm personally sick of the Republican and Yellow Dog Democrat shit-bags that demonize single mothers as the root of all evil. Single moms are the pariah of every one of those backward hillbilly conservative states of our union. One of the reasons why Bobby Jindal is declining that money, for example, is because he would have to reform unemployment benefits to apply to part timers who are laid off and people who leave jobs due to home emergencies -- this is something that happens to single mothers -- and physically abused women -- the most.

@gawkimo: Aren't the Blue Dog Dems more like the repubs, and Yellow Dogs pretty far left? I Wikipedia could be wrong.

@What I Meant Was...: I've always considered the Democrats elected as governors of Republican-dominated states (like Oklahoma) to be Yellow Dogs. They're the Dems that are pro-gun and usually anti-choice. I could be wrong tho.

People Magazine: "Oh, everybody knew about that. What, you didn't know about that? Well OK then, we'll give you the details, then ... but it's such old news we figured you already knew and there was no point in making a big 'exclusive story' deal about it, you know? Like some other loser magazine would. Ok, so here's the story then: They broke up. That's the story. Which all the cool people already knew. But I guess we need Star Magazine for all the uncool people, huh? Otherwise, those people would never know anything about anything. So ... whatever."

I would have turned to the Wasilla Hillbillies last night the minute Seacrest said, "We could have saved Chris Daughtry."

Though Chris is somewhere making big bucks and thinking, "FU AI."

And the AI audience is thinking, "When is our next chance to sway with our hands in the air? That's all we care about!"

I think I'm probably not alone in saying that, if this saga made it to reality television, Richard's recaps would be incredible.

It seems that Levi would have some pretty privileged info from the campaign. He was in the "inner circle", so to speak. I'd love to hear how many tranquilizer darts the Repubs had to shoot into him to get that Bristol tattoo affixed to his finger.
