Well, yes it involves religious freedom, but ask yourself if you would support a presidential mandate that all insurance companies provide free eye exams and glasses. That’s certainly a health care issue that affects most Americans. Even those who don’t need glasses still need periodic exams, right?

In order to do business, the company is obligated to provide something free. I equate this to extortion. Apply it to other businesses. What if all gas stations were obligated to provide free oil changes, or grocery stores were obligated to give out free bread? It’s the same thing. Now a lot of Americans might like free bread and oil changes, but it didn’t work in the Soviet Union and won’t work in America.

BTW, what about people who are opposed to abortion drugs for non-religious reasons?

You are talking about Obozo’s “spin fix”, not the original problem. The spin fix was about shifting this away from the religious groups onto the insurance companies. He has no lega authority to do that.....

But he is the Obastard (who is not bound by any law) and he does it anyway. For now.

Soon the day of reckoning will be here.
