title: Convert Spanish date in string format?
body: <p>How would I convert a date in string format to compare it with the current time?</p>
  
  <p>I tried this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import time, datetime
  
  if time.strptime(date.find(text=True), "%a, %d/%m/%Y").now() &gt; datetime.now():
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>ValueError: time data u'Dom, 07/02/2016' does not match format '%a, %d/%m/%Y'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Need advice on how to do this.</p>
