Right, this is an attach on the Christian Church not just Catholics and it’s also a trojan horse for abortion not just contraception. Obama’s calculation that alienating sincere Christians will be offset but number of women and young it brings to the table (or voting booth) is seriously misguided. The groups Obama seeks to appeal to aren’t all that concerned about it but the Christian community will respond with a vengence.

I don't understand why he would do this quite frankly -- why should contraceptives even BE on any mandated list? it's not a medical problem right?

If someone wants to use contraceptives, why should it be reimbursed? Next will Obama say that all medical plans need to play for ahem toys or visits to strip clubs?
