I should care about this because....?

lol

I think it's only being reported in the news b/c it was big news during the election. If Palin had never been the VP-nominee, this most certainly would not have made the headlines :p

It may have been noted in an article on baby names, but that's it.

Johnston Quits Slope Job
 
Levi Johnston, the boyfriend of Gov. Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol, has quit his North Slope oil field job over questions about his eligibility to work in an electrical apprenticeship program, Johnston's father said Monday.

Johnston, 18, began working this fall in the Milne Point oil field with ASRC Energy Services Inc., a major Slope contractor.

In a Sunday newspaper column, Anchorage radio talk show host Dan Fagan questioned how Johnston could take part in ASRC's apprenticeship program without a high school diploma.

Fagan said he understood federal regulations require all members of apprenticeship programs to have a diploma. He also questioned whether the governor might have had a hand in getting Johnston into the program.

I knew there were going to be some questions about this...

Hopefully he will finish school !

"You guys are watching him so tightly," Johnston said, referring to the media. "He's being treated different than an average 18-year-old kid. He has to do everything by the book now."
Because everyone knows that average 18-year-old kids don't obey the law, right?

In all reality, he isn't being treated no differently than any kid who 'gets a hookup' that eventually comes back to haunt him.

I will agree to a point that the media MAY have some play on this BUT...considering whose daughter it is....someone was bound to go poking around about this.

No matter how you cut it and it's been said ad nauseum awhile back, there was only so far he could go with a limited education.

I still don't totally understand all the circumstances of him dropping out in his senior year from the jump to take care of the baby...but hey...nobody knows the ins and outs of his home life so that is ANOTHER issue...BUT as it stands, regardless if he is Levi Jonston or Joe Blow, when he is that close to finishing his HS education, go on and be done with it...plain and simple.


and BTW...who said anything about him breaking any laws?

Expected, yes. Still, I couldn't help but hope that they'd make it.

Ray Charles saw that one coming.

I got 5 that sez we will be seeing Tina Fey reporting for duty soon....

Any takers?

It won't surprise me if it's true, but this is a report from Star Magazine with Levi's sister Mercedes.

It seems like it ought to be taken with a grain of salt, maybe.

But again, it's something so likely that it seems odd to doubt it.

nikki1920 03-11-2009 06:44 PM

its also on people.com.

But we saw this coming. :( Too bad.

Yeah, confirmed by Levi to the AP.

Maybe I should believe everything in Star from now on.
