It is not about contraception....It is about reinforcing Biblical Paternalism and keeping women in a state of dependent subservience.
Wisely the President let the media pot boil until the end of the news cycle then artfully offered compromise (as I predicted he would).
He even got this out there, before Romney spoke before CPAC today. I wonder if Mitt will address the matter in his speech?
If Romney comes out for the compromise, likely CPAC will run him out on a rail, if he comes out against it, he falls into the trap Obama has laid for him...the smart thing to do would be to say nothing. Alas though Mitt is in crisis mode and when that happens he sweats, starts talking too fast, buys a lot of negative ads and panders.
And if Mitch McConnell denounces compromise, then that is just a win win situation for the President his opponents to a man are made to look like fanatics and witchburners.
