Today the Obama Administration announced that the President would be issuing a new regulation fully respecting the religious liberty of Catholic organizations while maintaining access to contraceptive services for all employees.
The new regulation will ensure that Catholic hospitals, universities and social service providers that are religiously opposed to contraception and sterilization do not have to provide or even refer for those services, while also requiring insurance companies provide contraceptive services free of charge to any enrollee who wishes to have the coverage. The objecting religious organizations would have no role in providing coverage or referring employees for services they would deem objectionable. The cost of the contraceptive coverage will be born by the insurance companies and will be offset by the long term cost savings associated with reduced need for maternity care. Using the standard of Catholic moral theology, this solution is acceptable because no Catholic or Catholic institution will be directly involved in what the church deems to be an immoral act.

“A&P” Catholics. They show up for ashes and palms.
A Christian Catholic could never have voted Democrat the last 50 years or so,it`s as simple as that!
Somebody needs to come out and say it, I guess it will have to be me...Catholic Democrats are NOT Christian. Case Closed!
60 million plus abortions, removal of Christ from classroom public square etc, basically spitting on Christ.
Nobody with the Spirit of Christ within them would have been able to vote Democrat.
Didn’t they support Barry’s Old Compromise Regulation too?
Infiltrated by communists, hands out ready to give up any or all thier beliefs for a few sheckles and a line open to the criminal and chief. despicable
Five or six of the founders and board members of Catholics United are former employees of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops. The American bishops supported Obamacare right up to the failure of the Stupak amendment, even though it subsidized contraception and was “shaped” by Planned Parenthood. In the words of Reverend Wright: “The chickens have come home to roost.”
I just read an article that Obama signed the regulation into law yesterday afternoon WITH OUT CHANGE. (Meaning there was no insurance compromise, he just did it. Catholics welcome to the F.U of B.O.)
“James Salt - Executive Director”
“James has extensive experience working with national progressive Catholic peace and justice organizations as well as political campaigns involving Catholic strategy”
Keyword = “progressive” (Liberal)
I don’t know what kind of Catholics these are who United against the teaching of the Church. They should stop calling themselves Catholics if the support Sebile-us and Pelosi.
Stop insulting Vichy. Pelosi wing of the Catholic Church, maybe?
Obama’s new proposal is such an obvious shell game. The idea that the insurance companies will just pick up the cost of the contraceptive/abortion-pill coverage on their own, and not factor it into the overall cost charged for the insurance policy is absurd.
Catholic institutions will still be paying for contraception and abortion, and for anyone with a shred of intellectual honesty to pretend otherwise is ridiculous.
One of their articles is “Whats not Catholic about Cummunity organizing?”. Another article call on Catholics to support the financial tax law. This looks like a Soros site. Let me know if I am wrong please.
Yup. Soros bought and funded.

“Catholics United” sounds like a manufactured-for-propoganda group. Have never heard of the before, and you will likely never hear of them again.
He has declared himself Emperor and apparently the Congress agrees with him. They must ALL go!!! As Carville once said,”This is WAR!”
