Senate Votes Against Religious Freedom 51-48


Moments ago, the Democratic-controlled Senate led by Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada (pictured at the right) refused to restore religious liberty for all Americans, including our Catholic schools, hospitals, and charitable ministries. The roll call is below.

Senator Roy Blunt's amendment was offered to stop President Obama's unprecedented assault on our religious liberty. Obama's HHS mandate will soon force every employer, including Catholic hospitals, universities and religious organizations to pay for insurance policies that will offer contraception and abortion drugs for their employees.

Wow making something out of nothing.

You conservatives/right-wingers/republicans moan and groan about this supposed 'war' on religion that Obama is creating yet you utterly refuse to give homosexuals the right to marry and even look at them less than a person?

Are...are you really...are you really...!!!

Good.

Another win for equal treatment for all.

Not sure what you mean by 'religious organizations' but churches are and always were exempt.

Now to hear from the Muslims but then I think they are exempt from all of Obamacare from the start.

I'll give you credit--at least the utter irrationalism of your content matches the utter irrationalism of your tone (and interesting screaming figurine).

Yes. All are equally coerced to follow the mandates handed down from above. Paradise.
