Ana Marie Cox cuts through the santorum to reveal Little Ricky’s little trickies:

When Santorum claims that the policy means that Obama “has reached a new low in this country’s history of oppressing religious freedom that we have never seen before,” he’s relying on American’s long-held distrust of government to blind us to real-life workings of the policy he describes. In practice, it’s preventing people from using their insurance to cover birth control costs that feels like government interference, on the way to oppression.
