Waivers for religion?

[Gaspar]

In the next few days will we hear a reversal from the president that religious institutions will be able to apply for waivers from ObamaCare mandates that force them to provide services that conflict with their religious beliefs?

I don't know, it just seems to be the modus operandi for President Obama's policies.  

Kinda funny when you think of it. . .you promote programs that you claim will grow the economy, reduce burdens on the people, then you spend your time granting wavers because those policies hurt businesses and put burdens on people.

Perhaps he should just sell indulgences?  Kills two birds with one stone.  Detractors become donors, and everyone's happy!

CBS news made the claim this morning the reason for trying to leave the "contraception clause" in Obamacare has more to do with female votes than anything.

Nah, that couldn't' be it.  Why should insurance companies pay for contraception for people who can afford it in the first place?  Secondly, if you can't afford a box of jimmy hats, you probably shouldn't be bumping ugly in the first place.

JMO.

Where have you seen this info?

[Townsend]

It's the leaders of these religious organizations that are getting the spit fits.

You think the average catholic wants to have unprotected sex and the consequences?

[Hoss]

You're asking him for a source?  Really?

Or buy tobacco, booze, junk food, do drugs, gamble...they still will.

Re-read it.  He was positing a question.  It says: "will we" not "we will".

Stalker.

Bahahahaha!

It'd be nice to see one every once in a while.

Like Hannity does.

Haven't yet.  

It's the same pattern for everything else.  Pass, push for reversal, refusal, implementation of waver application process.

Gives government great power when they can burden the public with laws and then simply "bless" the institutions and individuals of their choosing.

Need to tax them.  They're already "blessed" by the government.  Tax free confidence scams.

Helps to avoid the conversation.

Now that's a good post!

You are implying that religious groups should be taxed.

What would you base that taxation on, and if they operate in charitable capacities, then shouldn't all non-religious charitable groups be taxed at the same rate?

I believe in wavers. I wave at people all the time. Even religious people. They especially like wavers.

As far as waivers? Tempest in a tea pot. I've always heard that contraception among Catholics is pretty popular. About 80% utilize it. Non-issue with them but fresh meat for the wingers.

Nothing with large income is taxed at the same rate.
