No "more" compromise?

There wasn't any -- just some shell shuffling.

It is not a done deal until Congress says it is a done deal. Obama is not just insuring his election loss in November, but he is trying to take the Senate, and House down with him. They won't let him do it. Go to Mass this morning, and you will see it is not a "done deal." This is just the begining.

This is just one more power grab by the marxist-in-chief. Where the hell does he think he gets the power to force insurance companies to offer contraceptives and the morning after pill FREE? This Country is rapidly becoming a dictatorship. The US Constitution and the Bill of Rights are both being shredded by this Marxist.

Obama has waived the mandate for certain religious sects due to their beliefs but he won't waive the conception clause for Catholics.

He has waived the mandate for Muslims, Amish and native Americans.

does anyone think the insurance companies won't just pad their premiums to take care of the contraceptive issue for Catholics

If the 84% of Americans are real Christians how could this ever be approved?

This whole issue was a brilliant political move by this President… I know women who are now paying attention and they are outraged at the right-wingers overreach on this. Obama set it up and easily knocked them down; LOL, I love it.

That's a lie. He waived it for Carholic churches, too.

But not for ANY secular institutions.

98% of CATHOLIC women use birth control!

The VAST MAJORITY of Christian denominations allow it.

You guys are NUTS if you think this is a winner for the GOP in the general.

So we allow the Catholics to discriminate against women in their employ. What's next allowing the Christian Church of Racist to discriminate against white women married to minorities?

Jerry Falwell used to have an internal policy against interracial couples at Liberty University. I can respect Liberty University, they options to turn down all Federal Money and Tax Exemptions to stand by their policy. That's how much they believed in their doctrines.

The question that exist for Catholics is are they so firm in their beliefs that they are willing to forgo their tax exemptions and federal funding to be true to their doctrine?

This has nothing to do with religious freedoms, but everything to do with mooching off of the American System to fit in tenants of Italy and their socialist state of mind.

It's time to Tax the Church and remove any exemption and privileges received such as freedom from prosecution in that Catholic Sodomizing Scandal.

Obama needs to show he has a spine, and can stand up to Republicans. This is the PERFECT issue in which to do it.

I think Pat's right. I think Obama set 'em up, and knocked 'em down.

The right continues to question the intelligence of thus President... and are then stunned every time he outfoxes them.

Watch for a similar result in November.

That's what makes them Conservatives. Sticking to failed and flawed ideas of a time long gone.

The idea that for religion American Women are going to accept the Taliban Way of Life here in America is bizarre and totally absurd.

Their hatred won’t allow them to think straight… ever since President Obama single-handedly found and killed Osama bin Laden the right has been beside themselves with seething anger; they would rather have had Bin Laden hit this nation a thousand times over having this President be the one to bring him to justice.

simply because we aren't a Theocracy. The Church has no place in the American System of Government.

It's a believe as you will and print your own Bible kind of place.

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Taurus

Get involved in financial transactions at your peril under today's Lunar Eclipse, because certain people will use them as a stick to beat you with. For instance, if you ask someone to lend you money they'll either make you feel guilty about it or dredge up all sorts of past instances when their trust was betrayed. You would also be well advised to avoid any show of possessiveness or jealousy, even if you feel it, unless you truly don't care about the disastrous outcome.
