From the article:
“However, these factors do not mean that we, as Catholics, should disobey the new health care law,” Bishop Barnes added. “If we happen to have an insurance plan that includes services that are objectionable to our faith, which most plans in California do, our response is to not utilize these services … The Affordable Care Act is now part of civil law and as faithful citizens we are obligated to follow it.”

I've only been to San Bernardino a couple times so maybe something has changed, but if not, I wonder how often this same Bishop tells the faithful to turn themselves in to the INS because they're obligated to follow the civil law.

Sounds like a Cafeteria Bishop to me.

Cardinal O’Malley refers to those who disagree with his stance on amnesty as xenophobic. I highly suspect that he and Bishop Barnes are on the same sheet of music - dancing with the democrats.
