Germany has warned the conservative Hungarian government that its new constitution, passed by parliament on Monday (18 April), is not compatible with European Union values.
"We are observing the developments in Hungary with great attention and some worry," German deputy foreign minister Werner Hoyer said in an emailed statement. "The media law adopted at the start of the year shows an attitude towards fundamental rights which - despite some amendments - is hardly compatible with European Union values."
...The Hungarian parliament approved the document 262 votes to 44, with the Socialist and green parties boycotting the vote and the far-right Jobbik voting against it....
The European Commission for its part has washed its hands of the matter, telling EUobserver that the constitution is for Hungarians to decide and that the country remains a constitutional democracy....
The new text, heavy with references to Christianity, protects the life of a foetus "from conception" and preserves "the institution of marriage between man and woman".

Germany may legally correct (as they were with respect to the anti-Jewish laws passed in the 1930’s). That does not make them right.
No wonder Our Lord loved agricultural metaphors!
“Germany may legally correct (as they were with respect to the anti-Jewish laws passed in the 1930’s). That does not make them right.”
They don't call them Christian Socialists for nothing. Coming soon to America if a Mike Huckabee-type gets elected.
Screw the Germans, Go Hungary.
“They seem to embrace traditional social values, and yet had no qualms about helping themselves to the contents of everyone’s 401K.

Whoa, that’s not good.
Germans trying to rule the world via political correctness.
I always thought the EU was a bad idea. You cannot weld that many countries with that many different histories and values into one conglomerate without having serious problems.
“I’m goin’ Hungary.....ayyyyyy”
Time for Hungary to quit the EU.

Motto His Latin: Cum Deo pro Patria et Libertate (”With the help of God for Homeland and Freedom”) or Regnum Mariae Patronae Hungariae (”Kingdom of Mary, the Patron of Hungary”)[1]

“Hymn” or “Anthem” (”God, bless the Hungarians”)
Will Germany launch a blitzkrieg against Catholic Hungary like they did against Catholic Poland?
Good for Hungary! Glad not all of Europe is sold out to self-destruction. We’ll need pockets of sanity as the financial slide into the abyss begins.
I promise, I am not confusing Kristalnacht (sp?) with the current Hungarian situation. Perhaps I should have put a little smiley on my post.
Apparently, they are having a liberal media problem that they are trying to solve in this way. But you know how these things work out…how would you like a bunch of Obama-appointed government henchmen overseeing the media, sending everybody from Fox News to Jim Thompson big bills whenever they don’t like what they see?
“...shows an attitude towards fundamental rights which - despite some amendments - is hardly compatible with European Union values.”
Because protecting the “right” to murder innocent infants is SUCH a “value”...
God Bless Hungary. Throwing off the last clinging Fecal remains of the communists and asserting their rightful place in Christendom again.
Lord, help them and guide them, and PROTECT them - or give them the will and the means to protect themselves.
maybe we should immigrate em here and they can ‘do the jobs American [politicians] wont do’...
