It was the most explosive, most emotional topic I think I have ever discussed while filling in at Newstalk1130 WISN. Last August, I brought up the subject of abortion in a manner I don’t believe had ever been addressed on local talk radio.
What about victims of rape who refuse abortions? Granted, the number of cases involving rape victims who become pregnant is small, but they happen.
I attempted to make it clear during the program and in a subsequent blog that I admire women who forego abortions after being victimized, but I personally could not and would not criticize them for choosing to abort in such cases.
During the discussion, I took some heat from hard-line, 100% pro-lifers, and that’s fine. It’s all part of discussing a highly charged issue on a 50-thousand watt radio station. However, I’ve been, and I don’t know if this is the proper word or not, fascinated, definitely compelled by this topic ever since because of the wide range of emotions and opinions it can and did spark.
This past Sunday, while ushering at church, I noticed a pamphlet in the vestibule:
Raped & Pregnant
Three Women Tell Their Stories
Each made a different decision and commendably, courageously shared the experiences openly and publicly.
"The next morning I tried again to wash away the dirty feeling, but nothing worked. I lost my appetite, was haunted by nightmares, and couldn’t concentrate in school. I kept looking over my shoulder, certain he was coming back for me. Somehow I thought God must not care about me. Maybe He was even punishing me.
The thought of pregnancy hadn’t occurred to me at first, so for four months I denied the possibility. I insisted to myself that my queasiness was just a touch of the flu, and my missed periods were due to shock. But a doctor’s exam finally erased all doubt. I cried all the way home from his office."
"Abortion was still illegal, but my sister made the arrangements. I met a man in Griffith Park, who took me blindfolded to a doctor’s office. But the doctor wouldn’t do an abortion because I had such a bad case of strep throat - if the infection went into my uterus, I could die. So he told me to go home and live with the fact that I was pregnant, and somehow I’d make it through. I later found a very caring doctor who helped me see that every life was valuable. I began feeling love and acceptance for my child, especially as I felt my baby moving. I became excited about the new life within me and almost forgot how it had begun. When I finally told my parents, my dad was in shock that I was pregnant, especially from a rapist. A family doctor got my dad in touch with Planned Parenthood, where I was told that abortion was 'the only solution.' They offered no alternatives. I believed them when they said my nightmare would be over and I could go on with life after the abortion as if "nothing ever happened."
"As I picked myself up and walked home, I couldn’t stop weeping. I felt dead inside. Everything within me was crushed - he stole from me something I could never get back. And what was worse was that my disobedience led to the rape. Since I wasn’t "pulled off the street," I figured it probably wasn’t a real rape - it must be my fault. So I hid my guilt and shame. Somehow I knew I’d get pregnant. One month went into another, and as I waited for my period I became withdrawn and desperate. In despair I cried out to God and made all kinds of promises, but God didn’t take this man’s child away. Abortion wasn’t legal then, so I tried to kill my child myself. I drank ant poison, jumped off tall haystacks, and punched my stomach as hard as I could, but nothing worked. I hated the baby, I hated the guy, and most of all I hated myself."
Here’s the article originally published in Americans Against Abortion magazine that offers real human perspective on an issue rarely discussed or studied.

Wisconsin is one of 18 states that bans smoking in its corrections facilities. Inmates can’t smoke, period. Employees at the Kettle Morraine and Jackson correctional facilities can smoke outside as part of collective bargaining agreements.
Otherwise, a ban has been in place since September 2006 in Wisconsin. Inmates can’t smoke. Employees, including the guards can’t smoke.
Michigan became the 18th state to ban smoking in its prisons. Their ban went into effect yesterday, February 1, 2009.
In the 18 states that have banned smoking in prisons, there have been no insurrections, no uprisings, no riots. And corrections workers aren’t quitting their jobs.
I support this ban.
Wait a minute, Kevin. You are vehemently opposed to a statewide smoking ban in Wisconsin. How can you be in favor of this ban?
Easy. Real easy.
Inmates, in addition to their housing, food, recreation, law library opportunities, etc, are guaranteed health care. Why should the taxpayers, when health care costs are skyrocketing and many are without health insurance, subsidize the care of criminals when they smoke?
I’m for any measure that makes life difficult for inmates. They are to be punished. This isn’t supposed to be pleasant or a Hilton.
What about the workers? Don’t they deserve a smoking break for the crummy job they have to endure?
The state already bans smoking in many, if not all state workplaces. How can we make an exception for corrections officers? The state is trying to use a heavy hand and tell businesses they can’t allow smoking on their own property. If that’s the case, how can we allow prison guards to smoke, inside or outside a facility?
Here are details on the Michigan ban I talked about on WISN while filling in for Mark Belling today.

It happened in Atlanta Sunday when firefighters, upset with proposed budget and salary cuts, called in sick on the most heavily watched television day of the year, leaving a large metropolis vulnerable to arsonists and fire damage. Innocent residents, including children, could have been killed because the Atlanta Fire Department was essentially non-functional Sunday.
I spoke about this while filling in for Mark Belling on WISN today.
Shame on those firefighters that called in sick (they probably weren’t) for putting their city in jeopardy and peril. Don't insult the taxpayers' intelligence by saying this was just a coincidence.
Shame on the city for proposing cuts to public safety. Find other ways to fix your budget mess.
Atlanta firefighters, while I recognize you’re upset, fight at the bargaining table and honor your commitment and job responsibilities. Do not protest by sitting on your couch eating nachos watching football while potential fires kill innocent people.
During my program, several Milwaukee firefighters called in, with some willing to go on the air. Others were not. They claim the same pattern of absenteeism could hit Milwaukee because of proposed budget cuts.
I do not support any budget cuts affecting police or fire protection. As I said on the air today, I will look into this, and if a similar situation resulting in a near total collapse of fire protection could take place in Milwaukee, I’ll write about it here and blast it on WISN. Here’s the Atlanta story I talked about today.

Lori Drew is one of the most evil women in America.
Drew was indicted on one count of conspiracy and three counts of accessing protected computers without authorization to obtain information to inflict emotional distress on a 13-year old girl who committed suicide. Drew was recently found guilty of misdemeanors instead of felonies.
This is a troubling case that could have implications for Internet users that remain unclear. Here’s the background that demonstrates that Internet anonymity and deception can be deadly.
Lori Drew was doing well in her own local advertising business and was well thought of in O’Fallon, Missouri.
Her daughter, Sarah, was a good friend of another seventh-grader, 13-year old Megan Meier. Megan had a problem with her weight, and also suffered from Attention-Deficit Disorder and depression. Megan had been seeing a therapist since she was in the third grade after she began talking about suicide.
Sarah Drew and Megan Meier went to the eighth grade together and for whatever reason, their relationship became strained and the two were no longer friends. Sarah told her mother, Lori Drew, that Megan was mean to her.
Lori Drew created a profile on MySpace with the fake name “Josh Evans” and included a picture of a good looking young boy of the supposed 16-year old. Josh Evans claimed he had just moved into the area from Florida, was being home-schooled, played the drums and the guitar, and didn’t have a phone number. Oh, and he wanted to be friends with little Megan Meier.
Megan was overjoyed that this teenager wanted to put her on his friends list and shared her thrilling news with her mother, asking if she could add Josh Evans to her own friends list. Tina Meier, Megan’s mother, approved.
For the next month and a half, Megan and Josh chatted back and forth about subjects teens talk about. Posing as ‘Josh Evans,’ Lori Drew tried to use her adult cunning to persuade Megan to reveal all of her secrets to her online boyfriend. But Lori Drew told others about her scheme, including one of her employees at her advertising company who was brought in on the plot along with another neighborhood girl who had the login details to the Josh Evans account.
On October 15, 2006, Josh Evans changed. He became angry, mean.
Josh wrote to Megan, “I don’t know if I want to be friends with you anymore because I’ve heard that you are not very nice to your friends.” Megan responded that she didn’t know what Josh was talking about.
The next day, Megan handed out invitations at school to her birthday party. When Megan went home, she asked her mother to log into Megan’s MySpace account for her so she could see if Josh Evans had replied to her e-mail. Megan was hoping Josh would show up at her party and finally meet her parents.
But Josh had sent all of his computer correspondences to other online friends who suddenly knew all of Megan’s innermost secrets, feelings, and thoughts. Kids at school ridiculed Megan.
Megan’s mother had a dental appointment and was pressed for time, so she told Megan to sign off as she walked out the door. But Megan didn’t sign off. After her mother got to the dentist, she called Megan to find that her daughter was still online, sobbing. Megan told her mother everyone was making fun of her and again, Megan’s mother told her to log off.
Megan called her mother, and told her that people online were calling her, “fat,” and a “***.” Once again, Megan’s mother told Megan to log off.
When Megan’s mom got home from the dentist, she went to the computer and looked over the messages and then logged out of the MySpace account, finishing Megan’s computer use for the night. But before logging out, she failed to see the last message in Megan’s inbox from Josh Evans that read:
“Everybody in O’Fallon knows how you are. You are a bad person and everybody hates you. Have a s***** rest of your life. The world would be a better place without you.”
Megan’s parents were preparing dinner when they suddenly suspected something was wrong and ran upstairs to their daughter’s room. They found Megan, who had hung herself with a belt in her closet.
An ambulance was summoned and Lori Drew called a 13-year old boy who was in on this evil joke and instructed her to keep quiet. The Josh Evans account was deleted. Megan Meier was dead the next day. The 13-year old boy eventually told Megan’s parents about what really happened.
Lori Drew isn’t directly responsible for Megan Meier’s death, but if not for her using a fake identity on the Internet to manipulate the innocent girl, Meier would be alive today.
One has to be pretty sick and twisted to concoct the despicable, sinister plot Lori Drew orchestrated.
Of course, not every individual who uses an anonymous or fake name is a Lori Drew. But there are such people who are mean and cruel who possess diabolical motives.
It’s unfortunate the jury couldn’t convict Lori Drew of felonies. She deserves a lot of prison time. Her case raises many questions about the Internet and the demented people who use it for evil purposes.

The safe haven nightmare is over in Nebraska.
Earlier this year, the state was the last in the country to adopt a safe haven law, but Nebraska went much too far, allowing children as old as 19 to be dropped off at police stations and hospitals. As expected, the law had horrendous circumstances that I’ve blogged about and discussed on WISN.
The law has now been changed to apply to children up to 30 days of age. That’s a major improvement. A better law would have been one structured like the one in Wisconsin and many other states where the deadline is 72 hours.
Here are links to other stories with many more details about the Nebraska issue.

Finally, Nebraska lawmakers have come to their senses, agreeing to undo the chaos they created when they adopted a safe-haven law that extended to offspring as old as 19.
The law will be re-written to apply only to infants up to 3 days old making it similar to Wisconsin’s safe-haven statute.

Ever notice how prison inmates, especially those scumbags on death row, once confronting execution, suddenly whine and moan and scream and beg for leniency? That would be a cry for mercy they never gave their innocent victims.
These cold-blooded killers aren’t so tough behind bars, clamoring for legal help when forced to eat Nutraloaf.
Eventually, they will eat, and eat, and eat, thanks to you and me, the taxpayers who keep the worst of the worst sheltered and alive, in many case for decades.
One death row inmate gained weight in prison, and then tried to use his obesity to spare his life. Richard Cooey argued he was too fat to be executed, that something could go wrong during the lethal injection.
“You can’t kill me. Look at me. I’m too fat.”
And why not? All you need to do is get your case heard by some bonehead judge, and for the next who knows how many years, you’re stuffing your face again, courtesy of Uncle Sam as you plot your next bunch of appeals.
No such luck for Cooey. A judge didn’t fall for his nonsense. Prison officials had no trouble finding veins through all his blubber. Imagine that. Cooey was executed today.
Cooey expressed no remorse for his crimes in his last words.
"For what? You (expletive) haven't paid any attention to anything I've said in the last 22 1/2 years, why would anyone pay any attention to anything I've had to say now.”
Richard Cooey will never be forced to eat Nutraloaf ever again. Now that’s justice.

Had it up to here with your kids?
If you live in Nebraska, you just throw them in the car, drive them to the nearest hospital or police station, and dump them off. End of problem. End of parental responsibility.
What’s that you say? Your kid is 19?
No problem. Nebraska’s new Safe Haven Law lets you get rid of (sorry to be so blunt but that’s what it is) any and all your kids, even teens up to age 19.
Yes, it’s silly. Yes, it’s stupid. Yes, lawmakers in Nebraska who approved this nonsense are fools. And yes, Cornhuskers are taking advantage of this, how shall I put it, opportunity.
My sharp wife, Jennifer posed an intriguing question not too long ago. What if you’re from another state? Can you dump and go?
The law and its legal protections apply only to Nebraska residents but Jennifer’s point is well taken. In today’s society, would that minor detail stop anyone?
The answer, of course, is no.

Nebraska became the 50th state this past July to enact a Safe Haven law. But it went far beyond what any other state had approved.
Back then, I blogged about the ridiculous law and also talked about it on WISN, predicting the measure would lead to irresponsible parents dumping their children.
It’s happening. Last week, nine children aged 1 to 17 were left at a hospital by their father. At least four children between the ages of 11 and 15 have been abandoned by parents since the law took effect. I updated the story on my guest appearance on WISN on Monday and today, USA TODAY does an examination.
State officials look at laws in other states as models for their own proposed bills. The idea is to learn from other states and craft legislation that’s an improvement. Nebraska took a common sense law and turned it into a nightmare. Lawmakers in the Cornhusker State need to fix this ASAP in their next legislative session.

Barack Obama just couldn’t stand to be upstaged during a memorable moment at last Friday’s debate with John McCain.
McCain had just answered a question about Iraq by referring to a bracelet he wears to honor a soldier killed in the war. Obama said that he, too, had a bracelet.
Then he hesitated and stumbled because he couldn’t remember the name of the young man on the bracelet that he’s been wearing since February. And he proceeded to talk about the bracelet, even though the soldier’s mother asked him last February not to discuss the bracelet anytime on the campaign trail, during speeches or at debates. Since the debate took place, the mother said she didn't have a problem with what Obama did.
No big deal, you say?
Breaking a confidence is substantial, especially betraying the trust of a woman who lost a son in Iraq. It also doesn't matter what the mother says today, it's what she asked Obama months ago that matters and the fact Obama did just the opposite.
It made for quite the discussion today as I filled in for Mark Belling on WISN. Here are details from ABC. UPDATE: There are reports that Obama has been consistently talking about the bracelet on the campaign trail despite Jopek's request back in February. Thus, Obama refuses to respect the wishes of the family and last Friday was not the first time Obama brought up the bracelet in public. Here's just one example from May of this year.

The Beloit School Board investigates and finds Superintendent Lowell Holtz violated two district policies by allowing a crew to work inside a high school on a pro-Obama video last March.
It’s blatant politicking in a public school funded by the taxpayers. And yes, it would be wrong if the video was about McCain but let’s be real. That would never happen. Public school officials aren’t stumping for the GOP. Schools are to educate, not to lobby for votes.
Here’s the story I talked about today on WISN.

This afternoon while filling in for Mark Belling on WISN, my special guest was Dinesh D'Souza. Here is his column we talked about.
D'Souza wrote this in another column:
"I invite people to send me small contributions--$5, $10, $25, whatever you can spare. Send them to P.O. Box 3384, Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92067. Make your checks to "George Obama." I will then contact the Obama campaign and offer them the money on the condition that they forward it to George Obama in Kenya. The advantage of this approach is that not only does George Obama benefit from our generosity, but also Barack Obama can use the opportunity to improve his relationship with his half-brother. Let's foster Obama family values, and give a break to a guy who really needs it."

The fact that people disagree with me is not breaking news. I take strong stands and always try to back them up with rational thought and facts.
What I have no patience for is being misquoted. I get misinterpreted frequently, and that’s bad enough. But there is no excuse for being misquoted.
I’ve been doing radio and TV in this market for over 30 years. I’m not alone in being victimized by being misquoted. It happens often. When I worked at WTMJ, I can’t begin to tell you how many telephone calls I received from listeners who swore that I or another newsperson said or reported something when we never did.
On Friday while filling in for Mark Belling on Newstalk 1130 WISN, I opened with what I consider an extraordinary topic that to my knowledge has never been addressed on local talk radio: rape/incest victims and why they make the, as I said numerous times on the program, incredible, inspirational decision to go through with their pregnancies.
My entire focus was to present the issue from the perspective of the assault victims and explain why they refuse to abort. My phone lines were flooded, and everyone who called in got on the air. I didn’t hang up on anyone. I did get agitated with some pro-lifers who misunderstood my position. Apparently, I was too honest in saying that I do have the utmost respect and admiration for the women who keep their babies, but I could understand the decision of those who choose to abort and would not criticize them for it. Never did I say the abortion was the right choice. Some pro-lifers wanted to turn this very specific discussion into a general debate on abortion whereas I wanted to keep the focus narrow.
A respected friend, fellow conservative blogger Dad29 wrote a follow up blog after my show. He makes two brief references to yours truly:
“(It can also be inferred that Kevin Fischer has a distaste for Pro-Life Wisconsin types; on yesterday's show he referred to people who objected to abortion-for-rape-and-incest-victims as "zealots," a term which has ALWAYS been a slur.)”
And later in his blog:
“And if being pro-life means that Kevin calls me a "zealot", so be it.”
There’s a major problem here. I never said the word, “zealot.” Not once. I did express great respect for the pro-life movement, so why would I use that term?
I listened to the podcast and there’s nothing wrong with my hearing. Never is the word, “zealot” that so angered Dad29 mentioned. I confirmed with WISN that my entire show was put up on the WISN website in a podcast for listeners to hear again and this entire segment was posted without edits. Dad29 swears I said the word, but as far as I’m concerned, he can stand on the highest mountain top and scream that to his heart’s content. The tapes don’t lie.
Dad29 says I have distaste for pro-life types. That is a blatantly false statement. He knows me personally and reads my blog. Anyone who thinks I’m not pro-life hasn’t been paying attention and has rocks in their head. Maybe Dad29 would like to talk to the people who run Pro-Life Wisconsin and Wisconsin Right To Life and get their opinion of me.
Dad29’s blog is not only false and misleading, it besmirches my reputation. It also attacks part of my livelihood, albeit part-time, that of being a radio talk show host, and I take that very seriously.
I expect this kind of garbage, and that’s exactly what it is, garbage, from the hateful left, but not from a friend. That’s why this makes me angry and very disappointed and I felt required a response.

Many opponents of abortion will support the procedure when a woman is a victim of rape or incest, believing it is the only sensitive, sympathetic and appropriate solution. But the assault victims say no one has bothered to ask them how they feel.
Only a few studies have been done on the subject and I admit my surprise to learn that many women who’ve been assaulted choose to go through with their pregnancies. Most that did are glad they had their babies. Most who had abortions regretted their decisions.
I spoke about this topic that I have never heard brought up on radio while filling in for Mark Belling Friday on WISN. If you missed the program, you can hear the podcast that will be available until 6:00 pm Monday night. The discussion is in Hour One.
The key point is that the women were violated once and didn’t want to go through another traumatic event. Women who did have abortions felt the trauma was as bad as or even worse than the assault itself.
I admire women who forego abortions after being victimized, but I personally could not and would not criticize them for choosing to abort in such cases.
A group has been formed to lobby Congress and state legislatures around the country to hold hearings on this rarely discussed issue. Here’s their petition:
Petition to Congress and State Legislators
from the Ad Hoc Committee of Women Pregnant by Sexual Assault (WPSA)
We, the undersigned, having each experienced a pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, hereby petition the U.S. Congress and individual state legislatures to hold public hearings at which we and other women who have become pregnant from sexual assault will be invited to discuss our unique needs and concerns. The reasons for such hearings are set out below.
Every year, legislators, judges, and other policy makers discuss the problems of women who have become pregnant as a result of sexual assault. These discussions take place without ever first soliciting our input. In most cases, it is only in the context of highly divisive debates over abortion that we are discussed. In virtually every case, those people who claim to be defending our interests have never taken the time to actually listen to us to learn about our true circumstances, needs, and concerns.
We are deeply offended and dismayed each time our difficult circumstances are exploited for public consumption to promote the political agenda of others. This is a grave injustice. In pursuingtheir political agendas, these exploiters have reduced our concerns, needs, and circumstances to a crude caricature.
Those who claim to represent our interests have never sought our authorization to represent us. They do not know us, understand us, or truly care about us. Just as we were once used, without our consent, to gratify the sexual desires of others, so we continue to be used, without our consent, to gratify the political goals of others.
Only we who have actually experienced a sexual assault pregnancy truly understand the trauma, fears, concerns, and needs of our sisters who are, or will someday become, pregnant as a resultof rape or incest.
Each year, thousands of women will face this experience. Unless society at large begins to listen to us today, these other women will, like us, face great difficulty in finding authentic understanding and help.
The issue of sexual assault pregnancies is both delicate and complicated. Even women who have been sexually assaulted but did not become pregnant can only speak in terms of their own fears rather than their actual experience. Only women who were or are pregnant by sexual assault can knowledgeably testify about this experience.
Our experiences are varied. Many of us carried our pregnancies to term. Some of us raised or are raising our children, while others placed our children in adoptive homes. Others of us hadabortions. In many cases, we felt pressured to abort by family members, social workers, and doctors who insisted that abortion was the “best” solution. For many the abortion caused physicaland emotional trauma equal to or exceeding the trauma of the sexual assault that our abortions were supposed to “cure.”
We are the only ones who can bear witness to our real experiences and our real needs. How long will you refuse to listen to us?
Here are more details on this issue.

Wisconsin has a Safe Haven Law designed to prevent the abandonment of infants.
From a column written by state Senator Sheila Harsdorf:
“On April 3, 2001, Wisconsin became one of 14 states to adopt a safe haven law. Under the legislation signed by Governor Scott McCallum, newborn children believed to be under the age of 72 hours may be surrendered into the custody of a law enforcement officer, emergency medical technician (EMT), or hospital staff member. If a parent is unable to travel to such a location, the parent may utilize the “911” emergency telephone number wherein a law enforcement officer or EMT would be dispatched to take the surrendered child into custody. The parent who surrenders the child is given complete anonymity and confidentiality, provided that the child is unharmed in any way. The newborn is then placed for adoption.
According to a study by the National Institute of Health and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, between 1983 and 1991, approximately 1350 infants were killed before reaching 4 months of age. 140 Infants were killed in their first day of life, with 130 of those not being born in hospitals.”
The Safe Haven Law is no longer unique. All 50 states have one, with Nebraska becoming the 50th state to put one on the books last month. However, Nebraska’s law is far different from the other 49. I talked about it on WISN Friday.
Read how Nebraska’s Safe Haven Law goes much too far.

I belong to opentable.com. Sign up for free, make restaurant reservations online, and get points for each visit, good towards restaurant gift certificates.
Now there’s a new online service available for New York and Chicago restaurants where you can buy and even sell reservations to high end restaurants that are next to impossible to get into.
It’s a trend that could grow in popularity. Yes, people are willing to pay $10-$50 just to get inside the restaurant door.
Here’s the story I discussed on WISN today.
