Archbishop Dolan 'terribly let down' by Obama's HHS decision January 26, 2012
Four days after criticizing the Obama administration's contraceptive-coverage mandate as an unprecedented attack on religious liberty, Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York discussed how he felt betrayed by President Obama.In November, during an "extraordinarily friendly" meeting in the Oval Office, "the president seemed very earnest; he said he considered the protection of conscience sacred, that he didn't want anything his administration would do to impede the work of the Church that he claimed he held in high regard."
"I was terribly let down, disappointed and disturbed, and it seemed the news he had given me was difficult to square with the confidence I had felt in November," said Archbishop Dolan.
