The president has now offered a "compromise" with Catholic organizations, saying they MUST provide insurance coverage for employees on items that violate their religious conscience, but they won't have to pay for it. The insurance companies will instead have to provide these services for "free."

Let me ask a simple question, "Can someone show me the gun?"

You know, the gun that was at these employees' heads, forcing them to work at Catholic organizations?

What? No gun? No force? You mean THEY FREELY DECIDED TO WORK IN THESE SETTINGS?

Then why should these faith-based organizations be forced to provide insurance that violates their convictions, paid or unpaid? Why?

Worse yet, won't the insurance companies just recoup the costs of providing "free" contraception by raising their prices on other services for Catholic organizations? Of course they will.

So the Catholics STILL have to provide AND PAY FOR services that violate their beliefs --and all for employees who were never forced to work there. The president HATES religious freedom -- or any other kind of freedom, for that matter.
