Coincidence? You decide.


William A. Jacobson, associate clinical professor at Cornell Law School, raises an interesting point about the press and about George Stephanopoulos in particular. Stephanopoulos is an ABC correspondent and former communications director for Bill Clinton.
Remember when George Stephanopoulos, at the New Hampshire Republican debate on January 7, brought up and harped on whether the candidates thought states could ban contraception? 
Everyone, at least on our side of the aisle, shook their heads in disbelief as to why Stephanopoulos was bringing up the issue. There was no active controversy over contraception, it wasn’t in the news, and there were far more pressing political issues, yet what seemed like an eternity of debate time was devoted to the subject at the insistence of Stephanopoulos. 
It was, shall we say, something out of left field.
Watch the video.


It's pretty clear to me that Steph has an agenda.
Well what do you know, about a month later the Obama administration proposes administrative rules under Obamacare which would require free contraception be provided even by religious institutions which oppose contraception on religious grounds. 
It’s almost as if Stephanopoulos got the memo first. Unless, of course, you believe in coincidences.
The Newt Gingrich speaks, and he seems to be aware of what's going on. Watch.
