SMITHFormer fiancé to Bristol Palin, Levi Johnston kissed and told about their sex life on national television. He continues to do so.The initial forum was the Tyra Banks Show, where Levi Johnston, who sired a son with Bristol, baby Tripp, first spilled the details of the private lives of the Palins.He continued his revealing indiscretion, subsequently booked on CBS' The Early Show where he spoke of strife and ill feelings with the family of former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.The contentious point is his claim he lived with and had sex with Bristol in her mother's house, and Sarah Palin was fully aware. "They said I didn't live there," he said. "[They say] I 'stayed' there. I was like, 'Okay, whatever you want to call it' – I had all my stuff there. So, if you wanna call it staying there, that's fine."When CBS asked if the Palins were lying, Johnston replied, "Yeah." "I can go over there whenever I want and see my baby," clarified Johnston. "But I'm not allowed to take him, and it's not as comfortable going over there anymore with that family sitting down on the couch. It's awkward. I don't know. They just, like, they don't think of me the same way anymore."Levi has been accompanied by his mother, Sherry, and sister Mercede who also speak out on the Palins."I mean, look what they're doing," said Mercede. "They're lying, trying to save themselves when they're the ones that asked for it. They brought him to the campaign. They should have known what was coming. They can't turn around and try and take it back now."CBS asked Levi what the public's biggest misconception was about him, and his family. "Umm, probably that my family's white trash," he told CBS.
