How far will Republicans go in their opposition to anything Obama? On the Ed Show last night, Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor and publisher of The Nation, described how the party’s most recent backlash over Obama’s healthcare compromise for religious organizations represents yet another attack on women and their health. "They’re putting a target on the back of women in order to take down a president they don’t like," vanden Heuvel says.
