A long fight could damage the president’s support among Catholics who favored him in the last presidential election.
Yes, I hope this is the case, but I also thought that ObamaCare would turn most Republicans against Willard "free abortions for all" Romney, yet he's still competitive for reasons beyond my ken to explain.

Lew is well practiced at official lying.

He's a pro at it in fact.

The Church should drag his sorry butt to Court. Who knows? Maybe between the Church, some if the states and other parties, we could get this law declared unconstitutional once and for all. I have no confidence Congress will repeal.

I say it is past time to start ex-communicating all Catholics who backed obama on this. It will be a way the Church could and should show how serious they are about this issue, starting with Pelosi.

The House should pass a bill to prevent this...and we’ll see how all those ‘on the fence’ dems in the Senate react...it could be ready for the next president to sign.

If one republican would stand up and point out the obvious; the birth control pills is not a HEALTH CARE issue and therefore should not be covered by HEALTH insurance, Obama and his media would be painted into a corner.

I guess Obama has given up on having news conferences soon.

The muslims haven’t got an exemption....yet. They may not...as they have historically not raised the same gambling objections to SSI, car insurance, or home insurance. We shall see...but the idea that any president can wave his magic wand and decide on such things is what scares me.

Mr. Lew said insurers would cover the cost because it’s more expensive to pay for pregnancies than contraception.

But the pregnancy leads to a birth and another covered person for the insurance company, therefore the insurance company gets to collect more money. So, is this statement really true. Don't insurance companies make more when they cover more people?

I do believe he is on a path to the lowest popular vote for any incumbent President in history.

Agree. Why is it so hard for them to speak in plain English and say the obvious?
