    People have not yet snapped to what this flagrant act really exposes, but they eventually will. It is not so much what flies in the face of America's tradition of religious freedom (although that is highly important here), it is more how the arrogance of the act focuses attention to what many supporters of Obamacare failed to understand when the act was rammed through in such high-handed manner in the middle of the night - when you give government power over you, you better understand that its weilders will damn sure use it in ways and to extents far in excess of anything you ever imagined...and this is just the barest start of what the nannies invesage forcing on a compliant citizenry they rule.

    When you are a hammer everything looks like a nail.

    I looked back and somethin' really nasty is gaining on me.

    Or not. http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/20...a-disaster.php

    Pro-choice Republicans are begging their party to drop this fight over contraception before it’s too late. Turning to a discussion about access to birth control will be nothing short of a disaster, they say.

    The new and unexpected war over contraception may not end up as only a battle between the White House and the Republican party. It could end up as a fight between the GOP and itself. As we saw during the 2011’s push to defund Planned Parenthood — when some Republican Senators rebuked their colleagues in the House for attacking the organization — Republicans on Capitol Hill do not speak with one voice on matters of women’s health. Now, as Speaker John Boehner seemingly prepares to turn the House GOP’s attention to contraception, pro-choice Republicans are warning that the GOP may become the next Komen For The Cure.
    Go figure.

    On contraceptives, Obama abandoned by Dems

    President Barack Obama’s contraceptives edict has handed Republicans an election-year gift. But now, the president may have a problem with his own party, too.
    A handful of high-profile Catholic Democrats are bailing on the president and joining the GOP chorus of critics. They’re arguing that the rule needs to be significantly softened if not, as Republicans want, scrapped altogether.

    At this point, the Democratic defectors are few in number but tall in stature. They include two swing-state pols on the November ballot — Obama’s former DNC chairman, Tim Kaine, who’s running for Senate in Virginia, and Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey — as well as House Democratic Caucus Chairman John Larson.
    But an intraparty values rift — likely to be most pronounced in battleground states with large numbers of Catholic voters, like Pennsylvania — can’t be helpful to Obama as he heads into the general election.

    As many are starting to realize, the govt is getting into meddling in personal lives way too far.
