The Duggars are at it again!

No, not pregnancy! Well, probably that too… But we're talking about their pro-life crusade. And now they've found the perfect comparison for their struggle. Jim Bob says:

"A couple of weeks after we went to the Holocaust Museum it dawned on us that there is a holocaust taking place right here in America!"

Yep, they're calling abortion the American Holocaust.

Michelle Duggar is nothing compared to Kelly Bates!

Jim Bob Duggar and a his wife's TLC show, 19 Kids and Counting, made them famous for having one of America's biggest families.

As of last week, their pal's Gil and Kelly Bates also have 19 Kids, and we like them a lot. We're pretty sure they deserve a TV show all of their own, so we suggest TLC give them 19 Kids and Counting. Here's why:

- Kelly didn't cheat and have any twins (like Michelle)
- She didn't have any C-sections (also like Michelle) and had all natural births (OUCH!)
- They're weren't super annoying trendy by giving all their kids names that star with a "J"
- Gil is a tree surgeon, and we want to know wtf that is! Hah!

Kelly, who just gave birth to son Jeb Colton Bates last week, says she's not done having kids walk out of her. She's been knocked up for most of the past 25 years, and she loves it.

Congrats guys! Hope to see your show soon!

Totally disturbing.

Our hearts go out to the Duggar family, who lost their 20th child in a miscarriage. There is no right way to handle the loss of a child. However, taking creative pictures of your dead child… terrifying.

That's exactly what Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar did. The stars of TLC's 19 Kids And Counting showed off pictures of their baby at her memorial service yesterday.

The photos featured the tiny hands and feet of their miscarried daughter Jubilee Shalom Duggar next to her parents.

One of the photos bore this quote:

"There is no foot too small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world."

According to our source, The photos were first posted on Twitter by a family member and then surfaced on a fan site.

We decided not to post the pictures out of respect for the family and our readers.

RIP baby Jubilee!

We're still in shock that Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are expecting their 20th child.

Even with the frightening premature birth of their 19th child, daughter Josie, and Michelle's life-threatening preeclampsia, you would think that 19 kids was enough.

But the reality tv parents are defending their decision to have another baby.

Michelle, age 45, says:

"If we felt that way, we would have stopped back with our second birth. There are many women who have experienced preeclampsia and have gone on to have more children.

That whole mind set that you stop after a problem pregnancy isn't realistic. You may encounter struggles along the way. You may not have a perfect pregnancy, but each child is a precious gift."

Even though they live debt-free and built their own home in Tontitown, Arkansas, the family still gets criticism that the children aren't properly cared for - especially since the older children have so much more responsibilities than the average teen. Jim Bob says:

"We homeschool, so we are around our children day in and day out. Because I am in real estate, I am home and can be with the children a lot. When we go to the store or run errands, we take the kids one on one and we get to spend more time individually than a lot of parents do."

Michelle says she actually learns from the criticism, adding:

"The beauty of being in a large family is that everyone works together as a team and it is about teaching our children responsibility.

There are a lot of good things we can learn from our critics. We really believe we are following our faith and there are sometimes going to be people who don't agree and we aren't going to worry about the negative things stated.

We are thankful for those out there who are happy and we are grateful for each and every gift of a child."

True, a child is a gift, but this is definitely taking things too far. All we can say is that we hope for a safe and easy pregnancy for Michelle and their unborn child.

19 isn't enough?!

The Duggars were on The Today Show talking about their 8-month-old daughter Josie who was born 3 months premature.

They also said they would welcome another child if God "sees fit."

Thoughts??
