Dutch abortion ship sparks controversy in Spain

A Spanish pro-life group said it plans to protest the arrival on Thursday of a Dutch boat that is offering to provide abortions that circumvent Spain’s strict laws.
The boat is due to anchor off the Mediterranean port of Valencia, the Dutch non-profit organisation Women on Waves said on its web site. [snip]
Spain decriminalised abortion in 1985 but only for certain cases: up to 12 weeks of pregnancy after a rape; up to 22 weeks in the case of malformation of the foetus; and at any point if the pregnancy represents a threat to the physical or mental health of the woman.

The Women on Waves ship visited Ireland in 2001, Poland in 2003 and Portugal in 2004, sparking protests in each country.

I’ve always wondered why the right became upset over the issue of abortion (except for their moral position). As hard as it might be on their conscience, they should encourage the liberals to increase participation in the activity; it does hasten their extinction.
Another incongruity that exists is the law for which Obama voted, allowing babies that survive abortions to die on a table in a corner.
Yet, we prosecute a teen that births and abandons a newborn to die for manslaughter at the minimum. At least the Illinois Legislature had the good sense not to pass that inhumane bill.
Could you imagine the bark from the libs if we delivered this treatment to Pookie or Fluffy? The ACLU and the Humane Society would have collective strokes.
