The only thing that would make her look bad is if she kept trying to extract as much money as possible from Levi Johnson, because AFAIK from media stories, the guy isn't making the sort of money Bristol is going to make.

Bristol Palin Signs Deal For Up To $30,000 Per Speech: Report

If Bristol Palin wanted me to listen to her talk, she'd have to pay me!

I wonder how much she charges to get her pregnant.
Do you obsess much?

What's next on the "I obsess over everything Palin" agenda, a thread dedicated to Bristol's horrid sense of taste in clothing or her hair styles?

The whole Palin family is like a Jerry Springer episode. Too bad our country is filled with morons who would actually pay this girl to speak.

I wouldn't pay any money to hear ANYONE speak. Anyone who needs to hear the content or see the speech can go get it for free on the web later anyway.

Ya, I know I won't get an answer from anyone.....

Considering what the Clintons charge for speeches, $30,000 is small change - and I'd rather listen to Bristol if I had to listen to any of them.

Some people are here to serve as warnings to others not to make the same decisions.

Nothing. It was within the context of the post I was responding to, don't be obtuse.

Bristol is not speaking about something she read somewhere, or a topic she was briefed on, or some political grand standing to get reelected to public office. Bristol is speaking to something she is living thru, and relating her experiences, and just as you stated, warning others not to make the same foolish mistakes.

With some young men & women, hearing from someone who is actually living with the consequences of their actions, may carry a lot more weight then some adult authority figure, who comes off as just trying to preach or boss them around.
