Why I don't think that Bristol Palin will EVER identify her new baby daddy.

Like I told you in an earlier post I spent the afternoon with some friends that live in Wasilla this weekend, and the subject of the identity of Bristol Palin's sperm donor came up in conversation.

These friends do have some connections close to the Palin family, but were at a loss as to who the father might be.

However one of them suggested that once the baby was born she would have yet another source of income in the form of child support payments.

After they left I thought about that for awhile and I have to say I disagree. I don't think that Bristol WILL pursue child support from this as yet unnamed father.

The reason I say that is because I don't think that the Grizzled Mama wants the kind of publicity that would surely occur if Bristol named a father who did not believe it was his child.

As we already know, Dakota Meyer, who Bristol was living with at the supposed time of conception, has said NOTHING about impending fatherhood, nor has Bristol publicly named him as the poppa, which indicates to me at least that it is very unlikely that he is willing to be named as the baby daddy.

So that means if Bristol wants to be paid, like Levi is already paying her for popping out his kid, she is going to have to identify the father on the birth certificate and then start proceedings with CSSD to get her money.

However since Bristol is a "Z" list celebrity that means the man she targets could make a shit ton of money by going to the tabloids and denying paternity, which is EXACTLY what they are likely do.

And that is certainly something that Palin absolutely does NOT want to have happen.

Hell, so far she is refusing to even acknowledge that Bristol is knocked up again. If Bristol's greed turns this into fodder for the tabloids Palin's head is likely to explode.

So no, I do NOT think that Bristol is first, going to ever even name the father, and second, try to squeeze any money out of him.

Having said that let me also add that I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hope I am wrong about all of that because it would be endlessly entertaining to blog about the tabloid war that would result from Bristol reaching out to some random dude and saying "Bitch better have my money."

The real reason there is no hope for Levi and Bristol's relationship.

Here is a portion of an interview that I did with Mercede back in February of this year.



(If you listen carefully to the video you can hear Sherry in the back ground saying "We all cried" as Sadie starts to well up with tears.)

This was LESS than two months after Bristol gave birth to Tripp.  As you can see she wasted absolutely no time in using the baby to hurt Levi, and to bully his family.

She also essentially admits that she was not being faithful to him when they were dating and suggests that there may have been other potential boys who are in fact Tripp's biological father.  Gee does THAT sound familiar?

My point is that Bristol, much like her mother, has a history of using her child to control people and keep them on the defensive.  The ONLY way that a relationship between Levi and Bristol would have a snowball's chance in hell of surviving is if he did EVERY SINGLE THING that she demanded of him. Now how long do any of us really think that a nice looking guy like Levi can really put up with that?

By the way if you think I an exaggerating in any way, take a look at what Mercede wrote today about her friend Lanesia's pregnancy and the demands put on the Johnston family by Bristol.

Update: Lanesia has also given an interview to Us Magazine in an attempt to clear up the rumors.

Levi is off the hook! Update!

According to the Daily Beast:

“I just want things to be dropped and get the truth out there. He’s not the father and that’s what needs to be said because there is no way he is,” Garcia said in an interview from the coffee shop where she works in Wasilla.

Garcia, who says she is due August 30, admits to dating Johnston in the eighth grade, but says she has not dated or been with him recently. She insists they have had no contact at all.

She also says the baby’s father, whom she did not want to name, is her boyfriend of three years whom she hopes to marry “if everything works out.”

She lays blame to the roots of the rumor at Wasilla jealousy and believes someone in the small town is getting paid-off.

“I have no idea (who it could be) because somebody did that to get big money. That’s how people are here, they will do whatever they can do to get money,” Garcia says. “That’s how this town is.”

Okay, so it is now pretty apparent that Lanesia did NOT give an interview to the National Enquirer, which I still have yet to see, and that she was telling Mercede the truth. And it also means that the Enquirer did not do anything except repeat rumors without even attempting to verify them.

I know for a fact that the guy that was up here from the NE did not talk to Mercede, or Sherry, and did not even contact me until Tuesday afternoon right before he caught a plane on his way back to the lower forty eight.  I did not have anything for him, and told him so.  I have no idea who he actually DID talk to, but it was none of the people I have contact with.

I would like to take a moment to apologize to Lanesia.  I at the very least had assumed that the National Enquirer reporter had confirmed that Levi and she had been romantically involved before he started making accusations. To find that was not the case says lot about that organization, which had just gained some much needed credibility by breaking the John Edward's story.

However when questioned by Mercede Lanesia told the truth and she should have been given the benefit of the doubt. That is bad on me for being skeptical.

Now on whether this information will be enough to repair Bristol and Levi's shattered relationship, I do still remain a skeptic. I think it is pretty clear the relationship will always be in jeopardy since there is a complete lack of trust between these two kids going back for many years, and I just don't see how Bristol is ever going to stop wondering WHERE Levi is when he is not home, and WHO he might be spending time with when she does not have him in her sight.

Perhaps if they were not in the public eye they might have more of an opportunity to patch things up and live a relatively normal life, but let's face it neither one of them seems to really want to drift back into the shadows of obscurity right now, as evidenced by their garish photo spread in US Weekly announcing their engagement.

Not that Bristol's fame whore of a mother would allow her family to hide from the cameras for very long anyhow. 'Hi I am Sarah Palin and this is my perfect family.  Holy crap where did the little retar..uh...special needs one go again? Okay camera guys film quickly before another one of these little terrors breaks into a house, vandalizes a school bus, or pops out another baby!"

And so ends this weeks' episode of the "Way out Wacky Weirdos of Wasilla!" Tune in next week to see Sarah Palin baptize the Gosselin children in Lake Lucille!

Now they have found Jesus AND glow in the dark!

Update:  Uh oh!  It looks like Levi might be back ON the hook again.  Perhaps Lanesia was not the source of Bristol's second thoughts after all.
