IMO the Obama Administration was clever in devising book keeping trickery that might have enduced acquiescence in seizure of the religious institutions authority over themselves, but today the WH chief of staff announced to the world that the WH believes it can win all by pitting the nuns who run hospitals and the lay people in general who run other institutions like Catholic universities against the Ordinaries. If the desired effect is to undermine the authority of the bishops, then the secularists and "modernists" who set this up may well cause a schism in the American Chuirch or a general decline in these universities and hospitals. Good Luck. You will need it in November. Many Americans are not willing to be the property of the federal government. pl
