Levi: Palin a Liar, Pain in the Ass, But He Still “Don’t Want to Leak Anything Huge on Her”

Levi Johnston seems pretty genuine in this interview with the Guardian UK. It’s audio only, and in it, Levi talks about how he expected to grow up and play in junior hockey leagues or become an electrician and then bam, he was in the middle of “high class” parties and meeting John McCain. But he didn’t much seem that impressed by it all; he knew he was dating the governor’s daughter and didn’t really care that much..

But he knows that Sarah Palin lies

You can catch her in a lie a lot of the time. She don’t read the newspaper. A lot of the things she’s sayin’, I know she’s lying.

He’s also come to realize that Palin was two faced about the way she treated him for the years he was dating Bristol Palin; that she might not have really liked him so much.

Levi also claims the ex-governor lies about what a big deal hunting family the Palins are, and discusses his own hunting experiences–something where he really comes alive and seems enthusiastic, talking about brown bears dropping dead at his feet and the radical mountains where he hunts sheep.

The father of Palin’s only grandchild, Levi is ready to go to court now to increase his access to son Tripp, which is the reason he went public earlier this years. He’s says the exposure helped some, but not enough:

It’s startin’ to get bad again. They’re making it kind of a pain in the ass again (to see Tripp). I know I’m gonna end up (going to court). There’re a lot of secrets and a lot of things that I haven’t put out there that are bad…so I don’t know if I want to. Some of the stuff I got, kept in, would either really hurt her or really get her in trouble. So, I really don’t want to say anything else. I’m not that kind of person, no matter how much she pisses me off. I don’t want to leak anything huge on her.

But he does leak on her a little, talking abut her post-election depression:

After the election, she didn’t want us to get married, really. You could tell that they’re all sad about everything. I don’t know, just her attitude towards everything was pretty down. I don’t think she had much care for anything for a while. She hung around in her room a lot. I think she just wanted to be left alone for a while. She just went through a big depression, I think. She was bummed out bad.

So bad that Todd would just go ride his snow machine to get out of the house.
