Sanity from Bill Moyers, Reasonableness from Obama on Contraception issue

It's SO good to finally hear some intelligence regarding the contraceptive/insurance issue!  I wish Bill Moyers could be President!

Freedom OF and FROM Religion
By Bill Moyers

EXCERPT:
...here's what Republicans don't get, or won't tell you. And what Obama manifestly does get. First, the war's already lost: 98 percent of Catholic women of child-bearing age have used contraceptives. (DUH!) Second, on many major issues, the bishops are on Obama's side - not least on extending unemployment benefits, which they call "a moral obligation." Truth to tell, on economic issues, the bishops are often to the left of some leading Democrats, even if both sides are loathe to admit it. Furthermore - and shhh, don't repeat this, even if the president already has - the Catholic Church funded Obama's first community organizing, back in Chicago.
