"... U.S. District Court Judge Reed OConnor issued a preliminary injunction on New Years Eve stopping the Obama administration from denying the right of Catholic institutions to live by their religious tenets.
Texas, and other states, along with the Franciscan Alliance, and other religious entities, sued the federal government for violating basic religious rights. Judge OConnor ruled that the Obama administrations regulation barring discrimination on the basis of gender identity could not be enforced. The defendants also sought to force Catholic institutions to perform, and pay for, abortions.
Joining the Franciscan Alliance as a plaintiff was the Christian Medical & Dental Society; the former was founded by the Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration, and the latter is the nations largest faith-based organization of doctors.
Even the Obama administration did not quarrel with their central complaint: the regulation meant that their religious-based objections to gender transitions and abortions would no longer be honored.
Think about what President Obama tried to do. To begin with, he sought to force religious organizations to perform an operation whereby a man acquires the body parts of a female, and vice versa. Second, these same organizations would be required to kill babies in the womb. If they did not agree, they would, in effect, be shut down; all federal funds would be cut.
The Obama lawyers had to be told by a federal judge that they had no right to dismiss the Administrative Procedure Act; it does not permit attempts to contradict existing law and efforts to exceed statutory authority. They were also schooled on the meaning of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, a law signed by President Bill Clinton making it difficult for the government to override religious liberties.

I thought Michele had died.
My thought exactly ... but a tad slower getting to the story.
1. Empowering, defending and helping to spread radical Islam.
2. Kicking the legs out from under the USA in practically every single area.
3. Getting men to use the ladies room.
4. Playing golf.
That’s Obamas legacy.
Obama lost his nads long ago..
In 2016, there were over 500,000 instances of the persecution of Christians the world over. Some 90,000 Christians died because of their faith, most of them at the hands of Muslims. Yet, of the 10,000 refugees admitted through Obama’s asylum program, only 67 were Christians. He welcomed the persecutors instead of the victims.
Beat me too it.
YAHOO-—OBAMA JUST GOT DE-***LED-——Obama tried to (a) force religious organizations to perform an operation whereby a man acquires the body parts of a female, and vice versa; (b) these same organizations would be required to kill babies in the womb. If they did not agree, they would, in effect, be shut down; all federal funds would be cut.
I thought his snap-on tool fell off.
My first snark when I read the title, as well.
Good riddance, Boobamba. Go home and don't come back. Leave American hospitals and medicine to the St. Lukes', St. Marys', and Beth Israel's of his country.
Obama is BEAST.
Is there anyone better than Bill Donohue to defend Holy Mother Church in this era of attack from within and without?
I just don’t think so. He has a tongue that cuts like a sword and is willing to use it.
I am physically nauseous at the battle tactics used against the Church, from the Vatican as well as to this nasty White House, filled to the brim with a Godless gang of perverts, circumventing Congress and taking over the Legislative Branch!
This b@$+@r& is DONE.
However, these assaults are not. God sustain us in your Mercy.
"Judge OConnor ruled that the Obama administrations regulation barring discrimination on the basis of gender identity could not be enforced."
Patriots are reminded that, unlike the rights that the states have expressly protected in the Constitution, such rights evidenced by the Bill of Rights, the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect politically correct, vote-winning LGBT agenda rights.
So regardless what state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices, judges and government officials want everybody to believe about fictitious constitutional rights, such as the so-called rights to have an abortion and gay "marriage, it remains that the states have prohibited both the feds and themselves from using politically correct rights to trump constitutionally enumerated rights, like 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and speech.
Patriots need to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
.
Obama lost his what????????????
.
Interesting, does this mean muslims are now or not required to perform abortions?
OBAMA SUFFERS TRANSGENDER LOSS...!
I knew there was something wrong with him..! Do you think it be replaced..??? :)
