Awkward Moment On Oprah With Sarah and Bristol Palin

s-BRISTOL-PALIN-OPRAH-largeLevi Johnston’s baby mommy was at it again. Yes, Bristol Palin and her mom Sarah made an appearance today  on the Oprah Winfrey show.

The dynamic duo defended  teen abstinence and toted the merits of Bristol’s decision of becoming a born again virgin.

Watch as the Palin women look like a deer-in-headlights-that-you’d-shoot-from-a-helicopter as Oprah grills them about  the unrealistic declaration that Bristol wont have sex ever again, EVER, until she’s married:

Today was filled with more talk show smackdown. Levi Johnston was on the classy forum, The Insider, being asked a series of rapid fire questions from a ridiculous panel of well-groomed people. Funniest question: Did Sarah Palin ever make sexual advances towards you?

I guess Levi’s writing a tell-all book about the Palins. It’s going to come complete with crayons.

Watch the full Insider video here.

    The show is all about Oprah making more money, not about the Palins…Oprah doesn’t have enough money yet.

    Hell, Oprah would have Adolph Hitler and his father Alois and mother Klara….if it would boost her rating and birng in more money

    I’d imagine if you were a moose fly on the wall of Bristol and/or Sarah’s brain, you would hear something along the lines of:

    “Uhhh…..Oh, um, yeah, well…I didn’t think about all of that! Doesn’t it just make sense on its own – why do I have to explain myself or, like, think these things through or, hell, even think thoughts period?! Oprah is totally being unfair! She’s pulling a Katie Couric on us here! She is asking REAL questions and expecting REAL answers!”

    Et tu, Oprah?

    All of the aforementioned brain chatter takes place while both Palin women maintain that vapid stare and slightly faltering smile they have unwittingly mastered. Or, as The Infiltrator so succinctly and brilliantly put it, the “deer-in-headlights-that-you’d-shoot-from-a-helicopter” look.

    Give the kid a break, Oprah. Tone down the hard-line questioning (read: chance to explain yourself and your position), aggressive attacks (read: an easy, open, and available out to the stupidity you just walked yourself right into), and unwarranted advice (read: dose of common sense). Let Bristol be ‘Born-Again Virgin Re-Abstinence Girl’ so she can continue to reach out to all those “real Americans” that understand the “real values” the Palins stand for. Can I get a closet-evangelical amen? You betcha!
