Why is Obama offending so many voters?

Answer is becoming clear: So he can create chaos and have an excuse to call off the elections. The Occupiers probably won't have the stamina or desire to stick it out--but the Catholics might. They'll be peaceful, just like the Tea Party or the 9/12 groups, but that won't matter. To the leftists like Pelosi, they are "terrorists." So if they do take to the streets, Obama can seize control. Very clever, and right out of Saul Alinsky's little guide book and Bill Ayers coaching.
The battle over the Obama administration’s contraception mandate continues to heat up. On Monday, Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League, made some bold proclamations regarding just how hard the Catholic Church plans to fight the government’s requirement that religious-affiliated schools and organizations cover contraceptives and abortion-inducing drugs.

“Never before, unprecedented in American history, for the federal government to line up against the Roman Catholic Church,” said Donohue. “This is going to be fought out with lawsuits, with court decisions, and, dare I say it, maybe even in the streets.”

Here, Donohue is calling for Catholics and supporters of religious freedom to join in peaceful protest against the mandate. Similar action (peaceful marches and events) has been taken in New York City, where religious groups have converged to fight a local ban on the use of public schools for worship.

Upon reading the news this morning, Glenn said that “every alarm bell in me went off.”
“Because something is not right here. There’s no way this President can lose the Catholic vote.”
Glenn said that President Obama relies heavily on the Hispanic voting bloc for support, the majority of whom are Catholic. There were also many members of the Catholic clergy who helped lobby for ObamaCare to pass just a few years ago. Glenn said that the Catholic community believes in social justice, but that a segment of them believe that government should play a role in bringing it to fruition rather than relying on individual charity. Those that follow the more progressive philosophy sided with Obama on ObamaCare, not now he has turned against them.

As a Catholic AND as an American, I'm horrified over what is happening right now. This is NOT about contraception or abortion. It's about freedom of religion granted through the constitution of the United States. Wasn't Obama elected (not by me) to uphold the constitution? What he's doing right now is akin to tyranny.

I don't think Catholics will leave the church over this. But I sure hope they leave Obama, now that he's shown his true colors.
