Obama’s Birth Control Mandate: the Center of the Universe
Every time another Bible-humping inbred makes the headlines yelling about fetuses and stem cells being sacred, the “experts” tell us that elections aren’t decided by social/culture-war issues. Republicans can flame all they want with their personhood amendments and attempts to outlaw birth control — let alone abortion — and supposedly they won’t lose any votes.
But as soon as President Obama requires employers to include coverage for contraception as part of their insurance plans — BOOM!!! This contraception mandate is the center of the universe. For both sides.
“Don’t you DARE reverse your decision and start caving in to Catholics!”
WTF??? Didn’t we have, uhh, something about a debt crisis? A high unemployment rate? Where’d they go?
It’s true that millions of Catholics are Democrats, and Obama can’t afford to alienate them. Would they actually vote Republican over this contraception mandate?
Would millions of liberals and feminists stay home on Election Day if Obama eases up on this mandate?
What say you?
