America's Favorite Teenage Mom To Tie The Knot

What’s the point?

So I was reading my most trusted news source today – TMZ – and came across a wonderful article that made me think – “What’s the point?”. America’s favorite teenage mom, Bristol Palin, and her beau Levi Johnston have decided to get married. Congratulations! What a wonderful thought … right? A couple things though about the article and how they are going about things … one, they didn’t want to actually tell their parents (embarrassment, judgment, or fear of being call the stupidest two people in the world?), so they decided to break their news on US Weekly – because then I am sure their parents wouldn’t hear about it.

Looking beyond the stupidity of this – and knowing that they will be divorced before you know it – they have pledged to not have sex, and remain abstinent until their wedding night (by the way they are pulling the shotgun wedding off in 6 week – can you say pregnant again?). In the real world – I would applaud these youngsters for choosing to abide by their faith and wait until marriage, but let’s all remember – they do have a 2 year old son together … which lead me to believe they have had sex before (sorry, hate to disappoint all the immaculate conception theorists out there).

So what’s this all mean you may be asking yourselves?

It’s just another 15 minutes of fame for both of them … they have had a taste of the “good life”. You know, Levi posing for Playgirl, Bristol getting into acting and public speaking (rumors are she gets $20,000 - $40,000 per speech on abstinence). For those of you who also might be trying to complete the link back to Sarah Palin – it leads me to believe that she needs to lean back on the this when it comes time to start running for office again. Or is it another book tour? Or was she going to get her own midday TV show? Who knows …

All I know is this is a joke …

I give it two years tops before they are split, and less than 9 months before they pop out another kid …yes folks my money is on that they didn’t remain abstinent and are actually with child now. Take it to Vegas …

Bald guy out!
