social issues: The progressive beacon on the hill -- Spain?!

Freedom is breaking out all over.

I couldn't have phrased this better myself, and I find myself wishing we had high-ranking government officials who had this kind of perspective on rights and freedoms:

Justice Minister Juan Fernando Lopez Aguilar argued that the bill overcomes "the barriers of discrimination, many of them with deep historical or primitive roots, which affect rights and freedoms and, in a specific way, the extension of free choice in the search for happiness, an unwritten basic right".

Meanwhile the American Taliban struggles to make a retarded theocracy of my beloved home country, binding hundreds of millions of people to their prehistoric, juvenile attitudes to sex (EWWWW! Boobies!) and society.
