ObamaCare: It’s come to this
“[I]t could be a serious threat to our mission in the U.S.,” Constance told TheDC, “because we would never be able to afford to pay the fines involved. We have difficulty making ends meet just on a regular basis; we have no extra funding that would cover these fines.”…
“We are not exempt from the [Obamacare] mandate because we neither serve nor employ a predominantly Catholic population,” Constance added. ”We hire employees and serve/house the elderly regardless of race and religion, so that makes us ineligible for the exemption being granted churches.”

Well, one of the main goals of obamacare (and obama’s administration) is to destroy all Christian organizations and businesses.

Religious liberty has nothing to do with who you employ or who you service. If the owner of any business feels that he is being forced to violate his religious ideas then he and his organization need to be exempt from this totally un-Constitutional and wholly un-American health scare monstrosity. Of course, this new American Socialist Superstate doesn’t have anything to do with the American Constitution, so this is all a moot point.

Why do Dems hate Catholics?
.
Ask your friends.
Watch the Dems run for cover.
Keep asking until we flip the Senate and run them out of town.

This is exactly as planned. You serfs should be worshiping Government. Not some silly sky god.

They cancel Charlie Brown for one atheist. They can cancel obamacare for one Christian.

I wonder when the government will finally get around to deciding what a qualified health care plan is?

Because the morons actually believe some Catholic businesses are discriminating against women. There is no reason for any of this. Birth control is free.
txhsmom on December 19, 2012 at 4:16 PM
Or maybe I should say “Birth control used to be free”. ObamaTax will make it very, very expensive.

Next they’ll go after the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm.

One that includes birth control and abortions for 80-year-olds while covering 26-year-olds for pediatric dentistry.

anything that looks like a political problem will just be papered over with an exemption

This is for the more informed voter- “Why do nuns have to provide birth control to retirees?”
.
For the low info voter – “Obama wants to take your guns, and hates Catholics.”
Email and ask everyone you know.

Lots of really unhappy people once I aksed them if they’d vote for a guy that wanted to get rid of deer season.

A children’s show was recently retconned/censored because ONE whiny cow of a mother thought the character ‘derpy’ was offensive to her defective DNA replicant.
Not a voting bloc, not a special(ed)-interest group, not even a community of meddling old biddies who should’ve been ensconced in a nursing home. One person.
