Liberals have no interest in controlling or regulating people's bedrooms or religious freedoms.
Sure, but they are the people pushing for free contraception. Oops. That's as inside the bedroom as they can possibly be. But then again, I must point out how Obamacare forces Catholic nuns and other Catholic faith based institutions to provide such a service when it is against their religious beliefs. Religious freedom, eh?
You folks on the right are the ones who want a woman's uterus to be property of the state so YOU can decide what she can and can't do with her own body and life.
Oh, but you
can tell people what insurance they can buy. As I have pointed out many times before, you insist that the government stay out of the bedroom, you further insist upon a woman doing what she wants with own body, but then are eerily silent when she starts begging the government to enforce her ability to do so, i.e., free contraceptive care, birth control, etc.
"Make the government force those evil Republicans to let me control my body!!!"
Do you understand how patently absurd that is? Heh, I guess you don't. This is where you cooked your own...(heck it's Thanksgiving) turkey.
Liberals support the separation of church and state.
Right... all you need do is look to Texas to understand how wrong you are.

Too many folks on the right want a theocracy.
Really? And how do you suppose they go about making one? As I often hear from people like you, "You can't legislate morality."
It appears you are no different as far as big government goes. I make that clear in Saigon's thread about Hitler, Fascism and the Right Wing. My one and only post. You'll understand then how much in common you and 'the right' are.
You cannot assign the 'big government' title to either party.
Ignorance based on ignorance is no excuse...
5 things to know about Obamacare and contraceptives - CNN.com
1. The law
The 2010 Affordable Care Act requires non-profit groups and businesses of a certain size to provide health insurance to their employees or pay fines.
One preventive care requirement initially included mandatory contraception -- or birth control -- and other reproductive health coverage with no copay to women.
2. The objection
Some religious groups that include Catholics and evangelicals objected on grounds the requirement violated their religious freedom and moral beliefs.
3. How was it handled?
The Obama administration and religious organizations set out to negotiate how the provision would be carried out. Under rules they came up with last summer, churches and houses of worship would be exempt.
But under the compromise, church-run hospitals, universities, parochial schools and charities must provide no-cost contraception coverage, or have a third-party insurer provide separate benefits without the employer's direct involvement. And most are complying.
Organizations that opt-out of direct coverage must sign a document certifying their religious objections and authorizing payments. The government would then require the outside insurer pick up the costs.
4. What's the core issue now?
A key here is Christian Brothers Services, a Catholic-affiliated non-profit that administers health plans for Little Sisters of the Poor and hundreds of other faith-based groups.
CBS qualifies for an exemption under the Obamacare rules for contraception and so does the Little Sisters of the Poor. All the nuns have to do -- and the Justice Department concurred on Friday -- is fill out the form seeking a pass, and they'll get it.
