palinreaxeng.jpg Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin has spoken out about her 19-year-old daughter Bristol's engagement to Levi Johnston, and while Bristol seemed to express some concern as to whether her mom would approve, the Alaskan politician seems to be okay with it.

In a statement read on the Today show this morning, Sarah and husband Todd Palin said, "Bristol at 19 is now a young adult. We obviously want what's best for our children. Bristol believes in redemption and forgiveness to a degree most of us struggle to put in practice in our daily lives."

Oh Sarah. This makes about as much sense as you running for office again!
