Join the Fortnight for Freedom. Support religious liberty.
This is the second annual Fortnight called by the U.S. Catholic Bishops. It was precipitated by the Obama Government’s HHS Mandate, which kicks in on August 1st. What is the president saying with his Mandate? Here is what he is saying: human life is a disease. It must be contained. It is not the fruit of loving relationships.

Read MoreNo one talks about sterilization
I heard a small town doctor talk last night. He is a general practitioner. In small towns, doctors do a lot, everything from delivering babies to repairing hernias to removing gall bladders.

This was much different than Occupy Wall Street where folks gathered in droves to revile the productive and besmirch public property. The second was the implementation of the HHS Mandate …
