Here's the thing, I work with a number of Catholic bishops and their communications teams. I can tell you that they are receiving a huge outpouring of support from other religious leaders. The clergy are smart enough to see across denominational lines to recognize that this is not about woman's health. Any woman can walk into Planned Parenthood and get these services at little or no cost. This is about the federal government trying to wrest more control over business, control people's lives, and strip away the belief system that puts faith in the higher power of God, and substitute socialist government as the new God. Marx may have believed that religion is the opiate of the masses, but Obama is trying to make free cellphones, and government cheese, the new opiates for his religion.
I firmly believe the Catholic church wants this controversy going through the summer.
