Alaska: Palin Daughter Seeks Child Support

They are talking about Bristol, this has nothing at all to do with Sarah!

Is anyone even reading the article??? Or is everyone just spouting partisan crap because they are to lazy to actually read what has been said?
Oh fine! Inject reason!
 
The only failure here is your argument based on nothing. Please point out where it says Sarah Palin told her daughter not to show. Here is what you said...

"Therefore, it's not Sarah Palin's business and she needs to be told to shut her hole and stay the hell out of it. - Vader

"Whom do you think told Bristol Palin not to show up? He offered her the money and wanted to see his son. Bristol failed to show up." - Vader

Now do you have any evidence at all that Sarah Palin did something or not?

My post was based on what YOU posted:

Now please explain what Sarah Palin, has to do with this or anything I said?

Flying of the handle before you have all the details is just so stupid.


YOUR POST IS THE SOURCE OF THAT INFORMATION.

Thanks for playing sir ... but you failed.
 
What is the big story? He isn't paying what he should according to the law to support his own child--another dead beat dad.

Levi has pulled in "in excess of $105,000 in 2009 through various media interviews and modeling related activities." The $105,000 figure is significant, because under Alaska law a non-custodial parent must pay 20% of income up to $105,000 a year -- which comes to $1,750 a month.

Ok I am going to explain this one more time. That is BRISTOL PALIN, NOT SARAH.

If it was Mrs. Sarah Palin, it would say that. It says Ms. Palin who is the unmarried Bristol, hence the Ms. and not Mrs. Now since Sarah Palin has no custodial rights, why would Levi Johnston, be going after Sarah Palin? Or asking her to visit?

Your argument makes no sense, and is moronic at best.

The only real failure here is me letting you suck me into your patented brand of insanity.

Wrong.

Child support is paid to the custodial parent by the NON custodial parent. If the non-custodial parent is not allowed to be in the lives of his chilren; the mother technically has full custody and is not legally entitled to support.

That is the law of the land in most states.

No, it's not.

Child support is for the benefit of the child. It has nothing to do with whether the custodial parent is behaving properly in the eyes of the noncustodial parent. If the custodial parent is not complying with a lawful custody order, the noncustodial parent can pursue that in a separate matter.
 
I think this gives Sarah Palin one more real life qualification because many Americans can relate to having problem children who make bad choices.

Obama has always lived in a bubble and it's already obvious he hasn't had to make tough choices in real life or ever really faced any adversity.

I'm more likely to vote for Palin over Obama after learning of this.
 
I'd leave open the possiblity that he's a dead beat dad.
A lot of these guys around, Palin's daughter isn't immune to these individuals..obviously. This is a problem that prevails in today's society.

It's not like he has a steady job & this is his steady income forever.........
Am I the only one here that thinks $450 a week just might be a little steep for a 20 year old kid?.....:confused:

....So you'd pick Palin because she had to deal with a pregnant kid? What does that have to do with running a country?

Meh, it depends. Right now he's raking in the cash by badmouthing Sarah Palin and posing nude, so he may be able to afford it. In a few years when his 15 minutes of fame is over and he's back to living in a trailer, the courts may need to revise that figure downward.

so...you are assuming that he has made no effort to help out....think it is possible that the Palin's are playing 'games' with him?

You mean the most vindictive, disingenuous, lawyered-up family in the state playing games....???:shock::shock: No-ooooo!!!:roll::roll:

People voted for PBO because he's black. What's the difference?

Being black doesn't make you stupid. Being a Palin does.

Lots of promiscuous girls like Bristol around too. They can ruin a guys life in short order.
Funny how some just assume Bristol is the victim here.

Boys don't get their lives ruined by girls. Those boys had a hand in ruining their own lives.

I guess nude modeling and advertising nuts just doesn't pay what it should.

I propose legislation authorizing fathers of teenage daughters to shoot Levi Johnston on sight, should he be found on their property, or within 500 feet of their girls.
Based on what I know about child support, $1750/month is way too much for one child. How much does this guy make? It is based on income, not on the wishes of the mother.

And the girls didn't?:roll:
Bristol was a big girl. She knew what she was doing.

It's based on how much the kid costs per month, then split between the parents based on their salaries.

Good point, takes two to tango. Non the less they both should accept their responsibilty, having a child changes the whole dynamic of ones lifestyle. The child is the real victim here but, I can assure you that Sarah will pick up the slack if either one drops the ball.

I pay child support, I understand fully.
