New rules that require Catholic institutions to cover contraception in their healthcare insurance plans are “hideous” and another example of President Barack Obama “telling everybody what they can and can’t do,” Rush Limbaugh said today on his radio show.
“Don’t be surprised if the regime reverses this,” Limbaugh said. “Even Muslim clerics have come out against this decision.”
Obama’s sweeping healthcare legislation, passed in 2010, includes requirements for health insurance to cover a full range of contraceptive products, including the controversial “morning-after” pill. Companies and institutions must comply by 2013, “safely after the elections,” Limbaugh said.
“This whole decision by Obama as part of healthcare is who he is,” he said. “The government telling everybody — including churches and church educational institutions, schools — what they can and can’t do. It is hideous. But it’s right there in front of everybody’s face for them to now see.
“Every day, it seems, every week, there are more and more examples of the totalitarian nature of this administration — and where its true desires are,” he said.
