The past week saw a tardy footnote explaining in part how the Administration was able to cram ObamaCare down the throats of Americans who overwhelmingly opposed (and still oppose) it. After the government spent $ 1.8 million dollars to defend the Justice Department lawyers who prosecuted the late Senator Ted Stevens, Judge Sullivan announced he was going to make public the 500 page report of the independent investigation of this team. In doing so he observed what I said long ago:

"The government's ill-gotten verdict in the case not only cost that public official his bid for re-election, the results of that election tipped the balance of power in the United States Senate," Sullivan wrote. "That the government later moved to dismiss the indictment with prejudice and vacate the verdict months after the trial does not eradicate the misconduct, nor should it serve to shroud that misconduct in secrecy."

The Attorney General has taken no disciplinary action against the prosecutors, and Judge Sullivan's remarks were not broadly publicized, but I want you to read and remember them. An innocent , respected Senator was tried and convicted and lost his office, and the Republicans their Senate majority -- paving the way for ObamaCare -- because of the unlawful, unethical, unprofessional conduct of federal prosecutors, who we then paid a fortune to defend and who have not ever been punished for what they did.

That 's the backdrop of this week's story: How a faction of the White House used that ill-gotten law to try and forever diminish all of our rights to freedom of religion .( It is not "freedom to worship" as Obama often erroneously says -- substantially diminishing the breadth of the Constitution -- but freedom of religion,)

ABC and Politico offered up the detailed genesis of the Administration's crackpot overreach which would use ObamaCare as a vehicle to force religious organizations to offer birth control, abortifacient and sterilization coverage in health insurance packages of their employees, and to provide these services in their hospitals despite religious proscriptions they might have.
