The Mother of Bristol Palin's baby daddy is arrested on drug charges. Stay classy Wasilla!

A 42-year-old Wasilla woman was arrested Thursday at her home by Alaska State Troopers with a search warrant in an undercover drug investigation. Sherry L. Johnston was charged with six felony counts of misconduct involving a controlled substance.

Johnston is the mother of Levi Johnston, the Wasilla 18-year-old who received international attention in September when Gov. Sarah Palin and her husband, Todd, announced their teenage daughter was pregnant and he was the father. Bristol Palin, 18, is due on Saturday, according to a recent interview with the governor's father, Chuck Heath.

Troopers served the warrant at Johnston's home at the "conclusion of an undercover narcotics investigation," said a statement issued Thursday by the troopers as part of the normal daily summary of activity around the state.

Troopers charged Johnston with second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance -- generally manufacturing or delivering drugs -- as well as fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances, or possession.

Sherry Johnston was arrested around noon and booked at Mat-Su Pretrial Facility, according to a booking officer there. She was released on a $5,000 unsecured bond just after 2 p.m.

So the grandmother of Bristol Palin's yet to be born son is a drug dealer? And just when I thought this story could not get any more bizarre.

Bristol Palin, an unmarried teenager, is due to give birth tomorrow. One grandmother is an absentee, ego driven megalomaniac, and the other is a drug dealer. Oh yeah this family is going to have NO PROBLEM providing a healthy environment for this newborn!

And I am not even going to go into the continuing questions surrounding who is Trig Palin's biological mother.

Perhaps Alaskans should start a fund for the future psychiatric treatment of this poor little boy. Hey maybe we could get a family discount for the whole family! There are entire therapeutic agencies that could be supported by Sarah Palin and her extended family alone!

And does Sarah Palin have anything to say about this newest family scandal?

When asked about the arrest, Palin's spokesman, Bill McAllister, issued the following statement by e-mail: "This is not a state government matter. Therefore the governor's communications staff will not be providing comment or scheduling interview opportunities."

This is almost verbatim the response McAllister gave concerning those racist e-mails. Are they under the impression that a "one size fits all" response policy is really going to make Alaskans feel comforted that Palin is a capable manager? Because I am guessing that will not prove satisfactory for long, if ever.
