"Who do you think should make decisions about contraception?" the ad asks. "You, or your employer?"

Framing the debate on a false premise...as is typical. The question is what gives the President of the United States the authority to just declare what health care policies will or will not be for employers (or anyone else) from a podium? Where and when did it become acceptable if people support a policy that the President can just act as an absolute monarch and just declare something into existance?

“President Obama has set a standard that every woman has a right to contraception coverage at no additional cost,” the DNC email says, “and he’s done it in a way that respects religious freedoms.”

Yep, screw anyone, anywhere, at no extra cost.

This is like the arabs. The Israeli’s beat the living daylights out of them, and the survivors hold a victory celebration for the television cameras of the world MSM.

"All the other mandated 'preventive services' prevent disease, and pregnancy is not a disease," the bishops said.

I've been using the same argument - pregnancy isn't a disease and a baby is not a tumor.

Besides, Contraception is a convenience - why should we pay for someone else's convenience.

It's not “free”. Someone pays for it and if not directly then indirectly. Since premiums will be going up for everyone then that's another lie by Obama when he said premiums will go down.

Wait until November to see what kind of victory the Democrats have in Obama’s mandate for insurance companies.
