    Hanrahan: From news.com, the following was Bill Shorten's response.

    " Cory Bernardi's comments on abortion and non-traditional families are backwards and offensive. "

    He seems to be expressing his opinion there, don't you think?
    Perhaps he could have prefaced it by "In my view....."

    When I heard the issue reported on ABC Radio the reporter also said Mr Shorten had called on Mr Abbott to condemn the comments.

    Personally I found his comments about single mothers unreasonable and inflammatory, even more than his remarks about abortion. Plenty of marriages break up and plenty of those single mothers (or fathers) manage to do a great job of raising their children.

    I also abhor his view about voluntary euthanasia. His judgements and opinions about most social issues seem to me to more easily belong in the 1950's than the 21st century.

    Others will, of course, approve of and agree with him.
