Sleight of Hand

Sleight of hand refers to a kind of clever deception used by magicians (and con artists) to distract attention from what is really going on to create an illusion:  now you see it, now you don't!  Keep your eye on the ball!  The issue over the HHS regulation is not health care, but the imposition of government mandates upon the free exercise of religion.  Cardinal Dolan makes the point in his March 2, 2012 letter to U.S. Bishops.
