I'm not forgiving the name calling, but you're confusing two things now.
1) The mandate goes into place, and the right rightfully starts talking about religious freedom.
2) The GOP runs a religious freedom panel in Washington, the Democrats start crying "but where are the women on a panel about birth control?" which was factually false. They then trot out a professional partisan for her own thing, and people made bad jokes and comments about her.
The second part is related because the Democrats made it about something it's not. It does not forgive the commentary one bit but the two are only related because the Democrats insisted on distracting from the issue of religious freedom.
