This was almost predictable.
A press release following the speech put two USCCB staffers on the record as supportive of Obamacare and, particularly, is his claim that abortion is not covered.

Richard Doerflinger, Associate Director of Pro-Life Activities, is also quoted, "We especially welcome the President's commitment to exclude federal funding of abortion, and to maintain existing federal laws protecting conscience rights in health care."
Double-Huh?
Seems as though USCC staff didn't bother to read the plan carefully. Regardless, it is foolish for USCC staffers to rely on ObamaPromises for anything.
Ask the folks who want him to close Gitmo, repeal DOMA, pull the troops from Iraq....
Hudson calls it "baffling." That's a very kind word for it.
