Alaska Governor Sarah Palin hasn't yet said anything publicly about her 4-day-old grandson, Tripp, but she does want people to know that Tripp's parents - her eldest daughter Bristol and her fiancé Levi Johnston - are hard at work and keeping up with school.

"You need to know that both Levi and Bristol are working their butts off to parent and going to school and working at the same time," Palin told PEOPLE in a phone message Wednesday. "They are certainly not high school dropouts."

Not high school dropouts? In the article, Palin says the kids are not dropouts, and then is quoted as saying that she hopes that Levi will one day work on his GED. Which one is it, Palin?

Bristol did "dropout" if she is studying to take her GED. The GED exists for those who dropout of school. Maybe Palin needs little more schoolin'

I was going to ask the same question ! As role models they are a flops,and Palin as a g/m is a joke.Why do I say this ,it's because while on the campaign trail Palin drug her special needs infant around like a celebrity would with their poodles ! Why are the oh so judgemental evangelics remaining so mute on this issue ,where's Limbaughs,Hannitys and Coulters so MORALISTIC views at ? I do believe these people should be adviseing the young parents to get thier their trains on track !To read any Parenting book they need an EDUCATION .

How about "Working their butts off to pretend that they have the first clue about how to BE parents"?

Actually, poor Bristol is probably a better Mom than her Mom, seeing as how she probably got the younger 3 dumped on her lap to raise while Mommy De.a.r.est flitted around in nar.c.iss.tic oblivion and 150 k of designer clothes.

"Working their butts off" Wow Sarah is still speaking with so much class. How much working can you do to parent a one day old baby.

LOL...::::imagining Bristol with a rope belt on her jeans and Levi driving a jalopy::::

Actually, the biggest similarity would be between Granny's and Palin's voices. Shrill enough to break glass!

I agree totally. I'm more concerned that Bush still is at the helm and Condi Rice is trying to broker anything with the current mid-east situation. She is getting ready to make a statement to the press. She's been totally useless for the last 8 years and now she wants to do a Hail Mary play in it all. Scary. Sixteen trips to the mid-east by her and the only thing she has perfected is the 'royal wave disembarking from a plane.

It's a high school diploma, not a degree. Palin
needs to go back to school. So they're working
hard. big deal. So is every other American right
now to keep food on the table.

I am still not convinced that Kevin from Youtube is not the father I do need to see the pictures we have a lot of mixed race babies in our family I most certainly will be able to tell. Bring the picture on

Just a quick comment from the "old continent" on the naming of the Palin sons and grandsons: we had a big laugh when we read the name of the baby because Huey, Dewey and Louie (Donald Duck's nephews) are called Tick, Trick and Track in the German version of Donald Duck. So here in the 'wonderful' Palin family we've got now Trig, Tripp and Track ... haha

They are high school dropouts in the biggest welfare state in the nation. Do the math. Or, better still, get them to do it. They might get a credit for it.
