Who do you think is going to pay for those premiums?

So Obama isn't going to have Catholic institutions pay for abortion coverage directly via insurance premiums. So instead, he's offering to have the insurance companies "pay" for the procedures.

Just where are the insurance companies going to get those funds?

I can't imagine some alternative universe where businesses go "geez what a great idea! We'll pay for the abortions out of our own pocket because the church doesn't want to cover the bill".

No. They'll pass along the costs to the Catholic institutions in the form of higher premiums..... still making the institutions conspirators in what they believe is genocide...........

The White House announced today that, instead of forcing religious employers to pay for birth control, it will force insurance companies to offer the drugs free of charge to all women, no matter where they work.

The plan, put forward as a concession to freedom of religion, was immediately denounced by Catholic Rep. Chris Smith as fundamentally the exact same mandate.

“The so-called new policy is the discredited old policy, dressed up to look like something else,” said Smith. “It remains a serious violation of religious freedom. Only the most naive or gullible would accept this as a change in policy.”

“The White House Fact Sheet is riddled with doublespeak and contradiction,” Smith continued. “It states, for example, that religious employers ‘will not’ have to pay for abortion pills, sterilization and contraception, but their ‘insurance companies’ will. Who pays for the insurance policy? The religious employer.”

Do these guys think everyone's a dumbass?

Let me retract the question.
