Leave Bush out it. Bush didn't create all the debt ect.... that we are in. It's all happened since Obama took over.

I'm a realist. I'll be more of a "bag of sunshine" than many when it hits.

PLEASE, take your wife on a few day vacation to a new place and have SEX with her, you need it BAD.
Not that I think it would ever get to that point but yes, bottom line is they would close. And others would take their place. Life goes on even if you don't like it.

Yeah, if you ignore starting two wars and giving two unpaid tax cuts that set our country up for failure, yep Bush didn't do anything wrong other than screw over our country and leave it for the next guy to try and fix. The lack of longterm memory for the Cons is purely amazing.

Recovering? You people aren't satisfied revisioning history, now you're trying to revision current affairs. If you call this a recovery you've lowered the bar. I've lived through three recoveries and none of them looked like this.

Why can't Obamanuts bring themselves to admit they traded in a mess and got a disaster. $6T worth of debt in just 4 years and none of it is Obama's doing?

If anyone has ever wondered what the blind leading the blind looked like; there it is!

The lack of admitting you were wrong about your guy is purely amazing. Do you have a clue how silly this is becoming?

This may come as a surprise to you, but not even the pope can change Catholic doctrine, and in the unlikely event that a pope would command anyone to commit a sin, a good Catholic is bound to disobey.

Astonishing, this blinding hatred and fanaticism of yours. You would prefer to see 573 Catholic hospitals closed, serving 85 million patients every year, including homosexuals and AIDS patients - untold thousands of whom are served free of charge - to rid the land of "Catholic houses of bigotry".

And then you have the temerity to suggest they do it for the money and the tax breaks.

Anyway, thanks for the illustration of what many Obama supporters would love to see happen. Personally, I doubt that even Barack Obama has that kind of hatred for the Catholic Church, but who knows? Even the loathesome Rahm Emanuel, who knows the value of a dollar if nothing else, just turned over the city of Chicago's homeless services to Catholic Charities despite the organization's presumed "bigotry". Would Obama close them down too?

According to your link, "The Obama administration proposed changes in response to the criticism. Under the proposed new regulation, birth control medication would be provided by the insurers, without direct involvement by the religious organization."
That is no change at all, just a slight of hand. The hospital still supplies the insurance and they won't supply insurance that covers BC, sterilization and abortions.
