You are incredibly stupid, aren't you. the insurance company doesn't get to decide anything, they have to provide the coverage at no charge, something no one with a brain thinks will happen. At that point the individual makes the choice about actually using the pill. or not, the insurance company still has to pay if they get pregnant after deciding not to use the pill.
The insurance providers will HAPPILY provide the coverage at no charge. They'll be absolutely giddy about it, just as they are giddy about it in the 28 states that already require them to do this.
Simply put- cost of family planning- about 600 a year.
Cost of a brith. $3000-$6000 for a natural childbirth, $10,000-$40,000 for one involving a C-section or some other complication. And that assumes a naturally healthy baby. We aren't talking about the women in their 40's who haven't realized the party's over and give birth to kids with Down Syndrome. That hundreds of thousands of dollars the insurance companies pick up.
So what Obama did was give the assholes a chance to save face. Frankly, I wouldn't have given them that much. I would tell them to shut the fuck up or the FBI was going to start seriously investigating the whole pedophile priest thing.
Sure they will, everyone loves spending $3 billion dollars for a guaranteed return of less than nothing.
Seeing anything beyond the nose on your face is a challenge, I've heard. You're too stupid to understand the issue.
I understand the issue perfectly well. So do most Catholics, because they support the President's position on this...
You see, most Catholics know that their church is mostly full of shit, and snicker behind the backs of the men in dresses.
Most Catholics actually oppose his position, which is why Joe Biden said it was wrong.
A majority of U.S. Catholics support President Obama's decision to require religious institutions to include birth control in health insurance plans, according to two new polls.
A poll by the Public Religion Research Institute in Washington, D.C., found that support among Catholics (58 percent) is higher than that of the American public overall (55 percent).
Likewise, a Public Policy Polling survey commissioned by Planned Parenthood found that Obama's position enjoys support from 56 percent of American voters. Of the Catholics polled, 53 percent agreed with the president.

Um, guy, the Insurance companies are not the ones complaining about the cost. Even the Church isn't complaining about the cost.
They just don't like the fact people use birth control.
Birth control is revenue nuetral for health insurance plans. That's why most secular plans offer it.

Ummm, no, they don't..
Polls: Catholics support Obama on birth control debate | StarTribune.com
A majority of U.S. Catholics support President Obama's decision to require religious institutions to include birth control in health insurance plans, according to two new polls.
A poll by the Public Religion Research Institute in Washington, D.C., found that support among Catholics (58 percent) is higher than that of the American public overall (55 percent).
Likewise, a Public Policy Polling survey commissioned by Planned Parenthood found that Obama's position enjoys support from 56 percent of American voters. Of the Catholics polled, 53 percent agreed with the president.
A recent national poll found that 50 percent of Americans oppose the Obama administration's mandate forcing religious groups to cover contraception in health insurance plans. The Feb. 8 Rasmussen Reports telephone poll showed that only 39 percent of Americans think the government should require Catholic institutions to pay for birth control measures even if Catholics are morally opposed to it. Ten percent of those who responded said they were undecided.
The analysis also indicated that 65 percent of Catholic voters oppose the mandate, along with 62 percent of Evangelical Christians and 50 percent of other Protestant denominations.
most catholics use birth control.
Prove it.most catholics use birth control.
because the rules against it are stupid
God Bless.What's a "Liberal" Catholic?
Someone like Kerry, Pelosi and Kennedy? The latter is dead and he's in Purgatory on an extended vacation. Probably won't be out for quite some time
Catholics - IN or OUT. 100%
No "Liberal" bullshit allowed.
No "cafeteria style" BS.
Sorry. That's not how it works.
By the way Heathens - I am off to confession - starts at 3:30 pm EST!!
Aren't the 80% of Catholics that voted for Obama probably liberal?
So this would suggest that Obama may still hold onto a significant voting block, namely the Catholic vote, regardless of the "Forcing the Pope to buy a condom" snafu?
This maybe bad politics for the right after all!

Just received the Sacrament of Confession.
AWESOME!!!!
Off to Mass at 5 for Communion!!
GREAT!!!! Being a Catholic !!!
So let me ask you this, CG. Did YOU vote for Obama in 2008?
The point being that I doubt very much if this matter swayed your decision, which seems to me was already made.
The better question for CG is, do you use birth control?
I think she uses her personality for birth control...

A significant portion of the Catholic vote is Hispanic, and the GOP is doing everything in its power to continue to lose the Hispanic vote.
