I bet this is incentive for the Dems to pass the FOCA. If 1/3 of our hospitals start 'failing' due to lack of gov't funding, the gov't will just have to step in and take them over, "for the sake of the people".

This play may be the path to socialized medicine folks.

What about the Catholic hospitals' 1st Amendment rights?

Our Catholic hospitals locally it appears were merged with formerly Protestant ones, taken over by parent corporations, and abortions are perfomed at a PP clinic. So really, why the need for Catholic hospitals to perform them anyway? Are they required to dispense birth control (apart from female problems which is permitted, may not be a hospital but a drugstore issue), perform tubal ligations, vasectomies? This could cut deeper than abortion.

No law Obama pushes supersedes the Constitution, and nothing supersedes the right of good people to protect innocent human life from being killed.

Christian hospitals, doctors, nurses, churches, organizations, pharmacists, et cetera need to do the right thing and ensure the right thing is done.

If the fascist Obama wants to try to force his culture of death on good people and the organizations they run, he can try.

But for Christians, resistance to his culture of death must be complete and completely unyielding, for there is a much higher authority than Barack Obama.

I think there are some Catholic hospitals that closed their maternity and ob-gyn wards years ago in order to continue receiving Medicaid/Medicare funding. Ironic for a Roman Catholic hospital not to deliver babies.
