I don’t know if you truly are incapable of “getting it”, or you’re a DU plant, or what?
Regardless of who raised which issue, the broader, deeper issue is this:
Obama claimed the RIGHT, under Obamacare, to tell Catholic hospitals and similar institutions that they must provide contraceptives and morning after pills...meaning abortion by pill...etc, free of charge to their workers.
When that was massively opposed, Obama then claimed the RIGHT, under Obamacare, to tell insurance providers that they must provide contraceptives and morning after pills etc, free of charge to the workers at Catholic hospitals and similar institutions.
What is stopping a janitor at the hospital from getting his or her own stuff?
Why is Obama free to mandate that everyone in AMerica be given free stuff, of this nature or any other.
Why is he trampling on religious freedom and business freedom.
Where is the Constitutional authority?
WHen you answer that question...and answer why you don’t seem to care about it...maybe you’ll get an attempt to answer your IRRELEVANT one.

I felt the first policy was wrong. I don’t have a specific problem with what I hear about the second policy. I strongly suspect the Insurance Industry signaled they would be happy with it as it will save them money. It has been pointed out that contraception can cost $600 a year, which might be hard for a janitor or nurses aide with 3 children to afford. The more unplanned children poor workers have, the more the rest of us end up paying for in the form of illness, special education needs, crime and imprisonment, etc.
Whether we like it or not, and many don’t, Obamacare was voted for in Congress, free preventive medicine was one of the things approved if I understand correctly. The Constitutional question will be answered during some of the various cases that are being brought before the Supreme Court on this issue.
Which one of my irrelevant questions don’t you want to try to answer?
