Obama is a statist and totalitarian, but he is also a spineless political operator. He will only do what he thinks he can get away with.
too right, this is the most blatant thing he has done against the constitution.
First amendment , freedom of religion.
There is no was on this earth obamacare is even constitutional.
The Govt is gets its power by us, it should not force states or religions to do something which they do not want to do.
That's an oddly framed statement. I consider myself a "champion of the separation of church and state" - which means I'm adamant that the gubmint should keep their filthy paws off of the church.

I hope and pray the dems FINALLY lose the Catholic vote over this one.
Beautiful words.
Ann Barnhardt has a damned interesting take on how this has jelled over the years.
“We will not comply” sounds good NOW, but, where has the Church BEEN all these years?
snip-”Some of the bishops in the U.S. are today issuing mostly impotent, flaccid statements regarding the Obama regimes declaration of war against the Catholic Church. The bishops are boldly calling for Catholics to call, fax or email your congressional representatives so that we may lobby for change and thus not be forced to violate our consciences. (it gets much, much better...)
Seems that the Pope has put his flock in order for the first time in years. They have allowed the US Bishops to become very liberal over the years, now he is reeling them in. About time. The Church needs to stand for something and “social Justice” just won’t cut it anymore. This IS the fight and Obama has picked it along with the rest of the Marxists in the White House. Just an opinion, but I’d say the line has been drawn in the sand.
The Ctholic Church has been sleeping with the devil (socialists) for many years, now that they have given them the power they were seeking the church was expecting a seat at the table. But instead the church finds they are to be destroyed under the boots of the very same people they suported for so long.
It’s funny to see them reap the harvest they have sown. I think their crys are falling on deaf ears amoung those who still attend church. I say, sleep with dogs you get fleas.
The church surpported socialism and wanted everyone else to live in that hell. Well, I for one no longer care what they have to endure.
I was talking to one of my neighbors who I see in Church every Sunday and she was saying this wasn’t Obama’s fault. I was so stunned all I could say was , lets change the subject.
There are thousands of these idiots.
The examples of Tudor England and Hitler’s Germany are not encouraging (regarding the courage of bishops).
