Homosexual civil unions have been approved by Mexico City’s municipal government. What, in machismo-obsessed Mexico, a country where, a few decades ago, a man could not even wear shorts in public? This is genuinely surprising news, as distinct from the news two days ago (which many conservatives were surprised at) that President Bush is rushing to join with Democrats to pass his open borders bill.

Don’t forget that Spain bought into homosexual unions either earlier this year or last year. Mexico is the biggest country in Latin America, and likes to think of itself as sophisticated and culturally advanced. There are a lot of things out there bubbling “under the radar” in Latin America that don’t get any attention in the US mainstream media.N. writes:
Remember the candidate for the Presidency of Mexico who refused to accept the election results for a while earlier this year, even threatening “direct action” in the streets? He was, and maybe still is, Mayor of Mexico City. The international Left has long been a feature of the Mexican political scene. Recall Frida Kahlo, Stalinist, has been an icon of Mexican artists for a couple of generations. Derek C. writes:
Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador had to resign his mayoralty to run for office. N is correct. The PRD is very anti-clerical, even anti-Catholic. They also support other things, like abortion-on-demand and euthanasia. Posted by Lawrence Auster at November 10, 2006 02:53 PM | Send Email entry |
