A political adviser to President Barack Obama said Tuesday the administration didn’t intend to “abridge anyone’s religious freedom” with its regulation requiring church-affiliated employers to cover birth control for their workers.
“This is an important issue. It’s important for millions of women around the country,” said Axelrod, the political adviser to Obama’s re-election campaign. “We want to resolve it in an appropriate way and we’re going to do that.”

Yeah I have to agree. They are starting to feel the heat of the response to their ill conceived plans and now are not wanting to be held responsible for their stupidity.
Ping your list Lucy on post #43.
The essence of liberalism is to do what you want to do and avoid the consequences.
“Shut up, he explained”
Is the way libs “debate”.
Yes, they will throw their own left wing under the bus.
“I am SO sick of listening to ANTI-CHRISTIANS!! Obama will SWOOP in and save the day, and all the Catholics will worship at his feet for saving them.....”
WOW! What a statement. First of all, 46% of Catholics did not vote for Obama! They voted for McCain.
Second, like every other gorup, there are many independent Catholoics who voted for Obama. Then there are well meaning liberal Catholics who voted for Obama too.
I personally know 2 ladies in my parish who were for Obama. I confronted them with the fact that Obama was very much anti-life, but they thought it was OK, since they had a history of voting for Democrats, and they thought the Republican party was not so much for the poor (heard that before??). Well, I certainly let them know that I would never vote for anyone who was disrespectful of human life. I happen to know these ladies are good practicing Catholic women. I told them I hoped that I was wrong about Obama because I did not trust him at all. I cannot help but think that they are now regretting voting for Obama. I wonder if they will ever admit their error? Especially since I told them that in Hitler’s Germany the Nazis began slowly until they had everyone under their power.
Look, I’m a Catholic that goes to Mass every day.....Practicing Catholics who have a BRAIN would NOT vote for Obama.
