An interesting international perspective
Especially for those (hi, Vicki!) who are always so quick to complain that access to abortion is still difficult in this here country… Have a look at the Spanish debate:
MADRID – Spain’s Socialist prime minister has irked his natural enemies on the right and in the Catholic church by legalizing gay marriage and instituting fast-track divorce. Now he has hit a raw nerve even among his supporters with a proposal to let 16-year-olds get abortions without parental consent.
Left-wing peacenik European socialists are upset! There’s hope, yet.

The Spanish must really be intent on suicide as a nation. With a birth rate of 1.1 babies per woman, you would think they would be trying to reduce abortion, not make it more accessible. Oh well, they will soon be gone and there will be nothing to write about them, except perhaps caring for aging Spaniards.
