Moan argues at RCP that because Sara is showing the courage in carrying the responsibly of her ‘weak child’, liberals are rattled. Mona argues that Sara is ‘strong’ and hence the reaction.

That is the point - Sara may be super human; but why should American Government punish others who are not that strong? She is not for an office where 'morality' is to be imposed on others.
The game plan may be to induce 'guilt' among normal folks by this. But that should be rejected. Test of a true 'leader' is 'not to impose' constraints which are irrelevant to normal day to day living.
By the way, when I and my wife faced some such surprises in our lives; we did the same thing - no intrusive test of fetus and being ready to face whatever it comes. By grace, our son turned out to be fine. So don't preach me your 'f------' morality. I do not need to adhere to some extreme Church to understand basics here and live an upright, moral life. In our world in fact, Sara and her family have been far more reckless and irresponsible with 'life'. She and her family cannot control the 'lust'. Living with consequences is not 'redemption' here because in the process you have already screwed one life (and more on the way when that teenager gives birth too). I have done the same choices as like hers, I have seen far more superior folks than hers and still we all consider ourselves as normal; not trying to ride presidency on that. Moreover, we see that we keep the decency in not trying to impose, implicitly or explicitly, such 'judgments' on others. Sara and GOP are doing that. Shame on them.
