Notre Dame's Response to HHS Decision...

I haven't seen Notre Dame's official response get much play in the mainstream media...

The Obama administration's Department of Health and Human Services announced on January 20th that they would require Catholic-affiliated institutions to cover contraceptives and sterilization in their employee health care plans.  A law in direct conflict with the teachings of the Catholic church.

That same day, the University of Notre Dame's president, Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., released a statement in opposition to the Obama administration's controversial decision (see link below).

The public opposition to the Obama administration's decision was escalated in Catholic churches all over the country this weekend -- as Bishop's across America expressed their concerns via letters they had read during Sunday Mass.

Earlier today, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski "debated" with Rev. Al Sharpton about what they're calling the "Obama Catholic Ruling" -- during their Morning Joe show.  Linked below:

Irish Ranked #26 in Two Top Hoops Polls

Five wins over ranked opponents -- not a single team in the TOP 25 today can make that claim...

Yet, the IRISH are sitting at #26 looking up at all of the rest.

I'm sure Coach Brey will gladly trade a TOP 25 ranking for a bid to the NCAA TOURNAMENT next month.  Here's a link to today's Top 25 polls:
