In Other Words, Está Mierda!

MADRID, June 5, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Former Spanish President Jose Maria Aznar has denounced proposals in Spain to legalize abortion as "illiterate verbal diarrhea," according to local media reports.
"Abortion is not and never can be a right," he said, "because what is a right, is the right to life."
The remarks were made at conference being held at the University of San Pablo CEU, entitled "The Ethical Foundations of Democracy in the West."
Denouncing the administration of Spain's socialist president Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, Aznar observed that "it is having serious difficulties in distinguishing what is human from what isn't."
Aznar's remarks come in response to President Zapatero's proposed law to depenalize abortion on demand during the first 14 weeks of pregnancy, and to lower the age of consent for abortion to 16 years. Both proposals have proven to be very unpopular and are being used against the Socialist Worker's Party and its allies in the current European Parliament elections.
"It isn't the role of the government to create new and degrading definitions of what it is to be a human being," said Aznar, and also opined that "To seek to advance on the road that brings the right to life and pervert it into a false right to eliminate life is, simply and clearly, to retrogress on the road of civilization."
Aznar also appeared to lash out against the government's new homosexualist civics program, "Education for Citizenship and Human Rights" which it is imposing on the entire country, stating that "it isn't the role of the government ... to hinder the educational process that parents develop with their children.
