Yep, some lib female university prof was on Fox just eating up Obama’s “accomodation” with a spoon, you just just tell she was thrilled to have her idol back, having so skillfully negotiated this issue in such a clever fashion. It was a real barfer!
Your mention of self-insurance brings up a good point: what about Catholic or other religious institutions that are self-insured? Now that the insurance companies are mandated by Obamacare to cover contraception, for them this means there is absolutely NO accomodation, since they set their own money aside to pay for their healthcare benefits anyway. All most self-insured organizations do is hire some third party to handle claims and paperwork, but there truly is no “insurance” in the sense of shared risk, it’s all their own money.
I guess that’s just one of those things you don’t know is in the bill until after you sign it...
There’s been no “accomodation”. It’s just more slight of hand, and carefully crafted statements to fool people into believing that Obama is reasonable and center of the road, and not the extremist that he really is. What a dog.
