I listened to the entire 11:38 minute speech.

This guy is also a lawyer and is basically making an opening statement in a case of not voting for Obama. He looks like a very talented trial lawyer.

I would have to look at the laws he criticizing to see just how much truth there is in what he is saying. Basically, though it is a political speech with a boycott threat of Catholic services if the Obama Administration through its Health and Human Services division insists on Catholic Churchs providing abortion. Not sure if that is even true that the Obama Administration is forcing the Catholic Church to provide abortions.

What news' reports I can find on this issue look rather slanted. Hard to get at what is actually going on without digging into the law.

Looks like double talk to me though from this Pastor. http://www.stjohnparish.org/staff_sammaletta_text.html

The Secretary of the Health and Human Services is very much pro-choice though.

I would have a wait and see what happens to this issue. Lots of politics here.
