You can show the Andrew Sullivan Freak-Out Advisory on your site with this snippet of code:
<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript” src=”http://wizbangblog.com/sullivan.php”></script>
If you want to see what it looks like, Allah has it up and running.
Is this like the terrorism code that vacillates between yellow and orange but never goes higher or lower?
I’ll wait for the Firefox plug-in.
Ace forgot “Shaking With Anger!”
Shouldn’t it be in a triangle, or rainbow shape?
That graphic’s pretty wide, Kev. Can we narrow it a bit for sidebar purposes? To, say, 175px or so?
Perhaps a multi-pointed star shape, Nathan.
I had so many funny “amendments” to this graphic but I’ve since concluded (rather than publish them) that the whole meme is best left to Rusty, Kevin/Wizbang, Ace and Allah. Best as in because they can take the heat — me, I just get trolled by instafaggot@yahoo.com, oops, I mean, Trollee.
I’ll wait for the Firefox plug-in.
HA! I was thinking the exact same thing. Ever since I got FireFox, I’ve wanted a plugin for everything.
“Shocked”, the exact color of a chunky puddle I saw at the corner of 44th and 5th last night.
Balvenie wha?
You need to get something about “gobsmackingly vile” on there, too.
OregonMuse — When red alert is reached, the box expands to read, “Filled with heart-ache at such gobsmacking vileness.”
Ah, I demur, Allah. That expanded box should read “Filled with heartache at such gobsmackingly vile evil.”
Thanks, Allah. I knew that one couldn’t be missed.
Shouldn’t there also be a SullyMeter that sounds off when his Bandwidth Fund reaches alarmingly low levels, and he needs to go on a vacation while it’s restored?
I agree, a triangle would be more apt.
Notwithstanding, great idea!

Andrew would insist that the Advisory have the shape of a triangle, although in his case, it should not be right side up or upside down, but tilting — to the left.
Just in case anyone thought Benedict XVI might not be as conservative as thought:
ROME (Reuters) – Pope Benedict, in his first clear pronouncement on gay marriages since his election, on Monday condemned same-sex unions as fake and expressions of “anarchic freedom” that threatened the future of the family.
I expect the Andrew Sullivan Meter to go red any moment now.

From Andrew… I await your decision on the alert level…

Stout hearts….
THE POPE ON MARRIAGE: I’m waiting to read the full context of the Pope’s remarks decrying the possibility of a gay couple committing to each other as “anarchy.” But at first blush, I would think that “anarchy” would better describe a world in which gay people have no context for their relationships, no social support for connecting sex with love, no chance of being fully a part of their own families. But I’m hardly surprised by the inflammatory rhetoric or the contempt for modernity and for human freedom voiced by this Pope. We knew what we were getting. Is he persuasive? Well, for that he would need an argument, an engagement with the social forces that have propelled gay relationships to the forefront of contemporary debate. Easier to pontificate and condemn. And he sure knows how to do both of those. Meanwhile, Europe continues to ignore him. Close to 60 percent of the Swiss just voted to allow gay couples to have most of the rights and responsibilities of civil marriage. If I’d stayed in Britain, I’d only have to wait a few months for full legal marriage rights. Maybe if the Pope voiced a little more charity and listened a tiny bit more, more people would listen back.

Isn’t it about time to raise this AFTER the Jackson aquittals?
