1. This isn't something President Obama made up. It's in the law, passed by our elected representatives in Congress. This is just a regulation implementing the law.

2. The insurance companies are on board with this.

3. This saves money for them.

4. No matter what the bishops say, 98% of sexually active Catholic women use birth control.

5. I'll be more interested in Republicans and their views of Catholic morality when they start opposing the death penalty, war, and poverty, all of which are opposed by the Catholic Church but supported by Republicans.

Who the #@%$ gives him the power to issue these dictates. Not the constitution.
You do understand that Obama is the duly elected President of the United States.
Partisan hackery is so very attractive.

The moment you agree that he can force EVERYONE to purchase a commercial product ... the greatest portion of the crime has already occurred, while the specifications of that product are just .... details.
