Not likely. Catholic voices will only get stronger and will threaten his reelection. That's when Obama will take it seriously.

It is important for millions of women that their EMPLOYER, via the force of government mandate, pay for their birth control?
No such thing as a free lunch.
Women and men previously have paid for their own birth control when they felt it was required. Passing the burden of paying for it onto the employer doesn't make it “free” - just an expense that everyone who works for the employer has to bear equally.
It is bizarre to me the way they talk.
As if they think that absent a government mandate that forces an employer to pay for their employees birth control, people are just going to do without, that it is really THAT important to them that the employer supposedly pay for it?

The Catholics have long needed a civil war within their organization too. For far too long there has been the hypocrites like Pelosi that have clung onto the church, steering it's awkward direction, but now is an opportunity for the church to stand on principle and tell those hypocrites to hit the road.

77.7 million Catholics in the US.
Obama just lost the election.
To: tobyhill
Your translation is accurate. Obama speaks, as he is the Dear Leader, and everyone else shuts up.
Isn’t that what the Constitution says?

the polling on this must have had Axelrod out shopping for new underwear
To: tobyhill
'He noted that these institutions have roughly a year and a half to comply with the new regulation, saying:
I think we need to lower our voices and get together.'
Time to scream bloody murder!

I agree with you. I have to think too, that they expected this to cause collateral damage by encouraging a divide between the Catholic Church and many of its’ American members. Hence the mention of the polls showing that large percentages of American Catholics support abortion and contraception services.

Unfortunately there's still those in the Catholic Church that worship the alter of hypocrisy like Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden.

Never listen to what Progressive politicians say: only watch what they do.
While one is telling you not to worry, the other is picking your pocket.

I’m happy and surprised that this is taking hold. I thought the CINOs would roll over. My guess is that this is a case of, “I can punch my brother, but you can’t.”
And yeah, HELP NO!, we won’t shut up.

SHHHHHH - treachery at work. We wouldn’t want anybody to find out about it.
