Levi Johnston and Sunny Oglesby tied the knot yesterday in Wasilla, Alaska. Their daughter, baby Breeze Beretta, was on hand … and in their hands: As for his other child, four-year-old son Tripp, the little man could not make it. Hilariously, Levi did not tell his ex, Bristol Palin , that he was tying the knot over the weekend, and instead simply asked for custody of his son Saturday and Sunday. Palin denied his request. It was up to Breeze Beretta, the one-month-old daughter of Levi, 22, and Sunny, 20, to take part in the ceremony, officiated by Johnston’s friend Crosby Marrow. The couple’s wedding – the first for both – took a lighthearted turn when the groom made a mess of his vows and elicited laughs from family and friends in attendance. “To have and to hold, whatever you say,” Inside Edition reports Johnston as saying. Classy.
Barack Obama is featured in the latest issue of Rolling Stone , and less than two weeks before the November 6 election, the President opens up to the publication with some choice words for Mitt Romney. Foremost among them? “You know, kids have good instincts,” Obama says about the young vote. “They look at the other guy and say, ‘ Well, that’s a bullsh***er , I can tell.’” Oh, it’s on! Okay, it’s been on for months now. But still. Strong words. Among other topics Obama touches on in his interview: Problems with the rich and poo r: There are a whole bunch of millionaires who aren’t paying any income tax, as well as people at the lower end of the income spectrum who may be taking advantage of the safety net we’ve put in place. We should hold everybody accountable who’s not doing their fair share. Standing up against your own party : If you can’t say no to certain elements of your party, if you don’t have sets of principles that you’re willing to fight for, even if they’re not politically convenient, then you’re gonna have a tough time in this office. Roe vs. Wade in peril : I don’t think there’s any doubt. Governor Romney has made clear that’s his position. His running mate has made this one of the central principles of his public life. The future of his health care plan : Just like Medicare and Social Security, as time goes on, as people see what it does, as it gets refined and improved, people will say, ‘This was the last piece to our basic social compact’ – providing people with some core security from the financial burdens of an illness or bad luck. His first-term achievements : Sometimes folks obsess with gridlock and the ugliness of the process down here in Washington. We passed health care – something that presidents have tried to do for 100 years…We passed the toughest Wall Street reform since the 1930s… We have expanded access to college through the Pell Grant program and by keeping student loans low. The list of things that we’ve accomplished, even once the Republicans took over, is significant. What Romney should dress as for Halloween : I don’t know about this Halloween. Next Halloween I hope he’ll be an ex-presidential candidate. So, we ask again, THGers: Who are you voting for? Obama-Biden Romney-Ryan View Poll »
Already a father of two, Levi Johnston will soon commit to just one. Woman, that is. The man best known for knocking up Bristol Palin will reportedly marry Sunny Oglesby this weekend. In early September, Johnston and Oglesby welcomed a daughter named Breeze Beretta into the world. Yes, she’s named after the Italian firearms manufacturer. Now, sources tell Us Weekly , they will take the step Levi was originally ordered by Sarah Palin planning to take with Bristol. They will walk down the aisle in Wasilla on Saturday or Sunday. It’s unclear if Johnston’s four-year old son, Tripp, will be in attendance, although it’s not unclear whether anyone else in the Palin clan will attend; they will not. Levi has clashed with the family over the years since splitting with Bristol, accusing the Palins of denying him time with his child. But, hey, Bristol congratulated Levi on the birth of Breeze. So maybe there’s hope for these crazy kids yet.

Julianne Moore won an Emmy for portraying Sarah Palin in HBO’s Game Change. That did not sit well with the former V.P. candidate’s daughter Bristol Palin .
