Obama's approach reflected the specific recommendation of a professional panel with a lot more medical and ethics background than either of us and is the practice of a majority of states. WTF is so radical or narrow about that? I think an exemption for the Church itself, but not for its secular enterprises, is entirely appropriate and this panel and 28 states see it the same way, not to mention a significant majority of American women.
