Early last month the Obama Administration moved to rescind a current regulation the protects the conscience rights of America's health care workers.  Meaning they would no longer be able to decline to perform health care related "services", (ie: abortion), on the grounds of their conscience and/or religious convictions.

So how do Americans feel about this issue?  Well, thanks to a survey conducted on behalf of the Christian Medical Association, we now have a poll which answers that question.

From the survey:

"A sizable 87% of American adults surveyed believe it is important to 'make sure that healthcare professionals in America are not forced to participate in procedures and practices to which they have moral objections.'"

As far as Obama's current proposal to rescind those protections?  By a margin of 2 to 1, (62% to 30%), those surveyd oppose the proposed changes.

Of course, Americans also oppose removing any and all restrictions to abortion as well, but that hasn't stopped the President from supporting FOCA.  Which means this isn't an issue of being tone deaf, but rather one of having a clear agenda.

And as the administration (and congressional liberals) move farther along with their proposals for nationalized health care, who actually believes that the health care providers themselves will not come under greater and greater government control?
