Spirited sparring between federal judges, lawyers marks HHS appeal | National Catholic Reporter

Spirited sparring between federal judges, lawyers marks HHS appeal | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: This could be another camel's nose to reopen the abortion argument, however I don't think these appeals will survive the appellate court stage to be able to do that. The Administrative Procedures Act is clear and the preference is not to allow such constitutional challenges if there is an out in law. The Church and its institutions seem to have really bad lawyers, but we knew that with the whole sexual abuse scandal when they played hard ball rather than helping the Church be true to its word. We need to quit protecting the Church and start expecting it to act like it is the representative of Jesus.
