Did anyone ever consider that maybe Bristol wanted him here in St. Paul? That maybe she needed him — the father of her child and her fiancé — at her side, so she would not have to face the spotlight alone, unmarried, and pregnant? Did it occur to anyone that it was an act of kindness, chivalry, and responsibility for him to come here — so that the mother of his child would not have to be completely “embarrassed” (which is how you say “pregnant” in some languages)?

My goodness. America has seemed a monumentally insensitive, cloddish, and vulgar nation in recent days. And who knew the Left could be so Puritanical — I mean, about sex?
