No, Sandra Fluke, your boss does not ‘control’ your access to birth control

CHARLOTTE — Democrats at the podium and around town have deceived and misled on Barack Obama’s contraception mandate consistently — perhaps in the hope that through repetition they can make the lie become the truth.

What really happened is this: The Obama administration used Obamacare to require employers to buy health insurance plans that cover 100% of all contraception for female workers. Many Republicans, including Mitt Romney, oppose this mandate, arguing that employers – especially those with moral objections to contraception – should be free to choose whether or not to pay for employees’ birth control.
