Going Ape

Tom Graffagnino sent me this article about a proposed new law in Spain which would grant human rights to monkeys. They put the Ape in April!

When you believe ``a cat is a boy is a dog is a fish is a tree``, when paganism or it`s flip side (atheism) rules the day, one shouldn`t be surprised at this kind of nonsense. Spain put the Socialists in power-clearly an irrational act. It should surprise no-one that the forces of unreason should act unreasonably.

If Simians and other creatures are to be given human rights, will they be forced to adhere to human standards? Will they be arrested for public urination or public nudity? Will they have to pay taxes? (Kind of a pyrric victory, that!)

Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise; surely the apes won`t be so foolish as to vote for the Socialists when they receive their human right to the franchise! Maybe the world will do better if ruled by those damn dirty apes!
