Sorry... the ticker wasn't updating. It should be working properly now.

You might have noticed the Abortion Ticker on the left-hand side of this site. It was created by Michelle Elizabeth Potter of bin-mom.com" target="_blank">http://usr-bin-mom.com ... in her own words she explains her reason for creating the ticker:

I've heard a lot about how many people (read: terrorists and enemy combatants) Bush&Co. have killed by protecting Americans from terrorism and the people of Iraq from a mass-murdering, chemical weapon-possessing, rapist dictator. The irony is that most of these complaints come from the party that promotes the murder of children as a "privacy right." I realize that children have died in Iraq, but that does not compare to the atrocity of abortion for these reasons:
1) The only ones purposely targeting children (or civilians) are the terrorists;
2) We do not consider killing Iraqi children a "constitutional right";
3) Americans do not hold marches, rallies, or fund-raising dinners in support of killing Iraqi children;
4) The number of American babies killed by abortion far outweighs the total number of casualties in the war -- including children, adults, civilians, soldiers, and terrorists. In fact, that's exactly what my ticker sets out to proclaim:

It is what it is. I've made no secret of my views on it:

Here and here . (Links open in new window.)

Anyhow, Michelle has been generous enough to allow us to show her ticker on our own sites. It's an important subject and needs to be in front of as many eyes as possible.

The ticker is now hosted here at http://www.cerebralcatharsis.com so that Michelle doesn't have to stress her server's bandwidth any more. You are welcome to link to the ticker from this site by using the code below:

Just paste it into your site.

Again, you are welcome to link to the code as presented above... but to help share the load of the bandwidth being used, it would be very much appreciated if you could host the script and image on your own server as well (=

And don't forget to link back to http://usr-bin-mom.com as the originator of this ticker.

Just download the script from this link , unzip it and read the intructions from the "Read Me" file included in the zip file.

Either way, let's get this ticker live and in front of as many people as possible.

Thanks Michelle.

May 06, 2008     

Hello, my name is Katie and i am working on a paper in my social problems class on abortion in America and i found a some information that might interest you and your opinion. Did you know that it wasn't until 1880 that our god-fearing founders of this country made abortion illegal? Did you also know that before 1973 (Roe vs. Wade) that an estimated 120 million women went and had illegal abortions of which killed 25% of them and harmed en estimated 35% of them (the statistics could be more, this is just the information that the U.S. Government was able to get their hands on)? How about since Roe vs. Wade the amount of killings of infants has gone down b 30% (there still the other 70%, but what can you do?)? Or how about this, that pregnant teenage rates is the number one reason for high school drop outs for teenage girls and that it is a statistical fact that about one third of teenage girls from the ages of 15-18 become pregnant within a school (that could be your daughter some day- but i am sure that you preach abstinence in your house, let me know how that goes when they reach college)? I could quite possibly tell you how much crime has gone down since 1973 especially in the child maltreatment and neglect department but you probably would not believe that. i think that before you start implying that fact that women who undergo abortion are nothing but terrorist, CHECK YOUR f*****g FACTS!!!!! Hope that you had the decency to read my little note to you being that i had the decency to read what you had to say my dear bible-thumper. Blessed Be.

Katie 1) Prior to 1880 religious morays made it a social crime to commit abortion, and therefore it would have seemed ridiculous to make such a practice a crime. 2) The number of women who had abortions prior to Roe vs Wade is irrelevant. The nature of humanity to kill does not negate the importance of a law against murder. 3) Roe vs Wade has not caused the number of infant deaths to lower. Abortions result in the deaths of children on a daily basis. 4) I would much rather women keep their children, become mothers, and drop out than finish Hight School. GED programs and other college courses exist that can allow a former-teenage-mother to finish her education after her child has gotten older. Many adoption agencies exist to help children of unwanted pregnancies find homes. 5) I'm not sure what type of eugenics message you are trying to push by saying crime has lowered since 1973, but in some intercity communities the abortion rate is more than 50%. Planned Parenthood is purposely targeting minorities in these communities and for what purpose?

Katie- As is typical of a water-brained lib you've failed to notice what was written: I don't care what the arguments are for it. I could care less about any "new" twist someone might try and dig out of their mind in yet another feeble attempt to try and convince me that there's nothing wrong with the murdering of God's unborn children. Frankly, any opinion that opposes my pro-life stance means nothing to me. There is nothing anyone can ever say that will change my mind on this issue. Period. It's called conviction Katie. It comes from one's very core. Something the spineless cowards of the world- namely libs- will never experience. You can can hiss and whine, wring your hands and gnash your teeth about it all you want. The ticker stays put. If you want a forum to counter the ticker and present your useless data then pay for web hosting and get to work. Your opinion about it means nothing to me.
