The Supreme Court ruled Monday that certain "closely held" for-profit businesses can cite religious objections in order to opt out of a requirement in ObamaCare to provide free contraceptive coverage for their employees.
The 5-4 decision, in favor of arts-and-crafts chain Hobby Lobby and one other company, marks the first time the court has ruled that for-profit businesses can cite religious views under federal law. It also is a blow to a provision of the Affordable Care Act which President Obama's supporters touted heavily during the 2012 presidential campaign.

I’m so glad for honest judges!
Only Five / Four...
Good grief.
The Lord still answers prayers, even if it’s by a slim margin.
Won this battle, if only just; the war continues.
You didn’t expect the liberal judges to vote for Hobby Lobby, did you?
Agreed.
It reveals how close we are to losing the court 100% of the time too, with one more bad appointment.
Let’s hope the next president has a better sense of direction than the last three have had.
No. However the thinking on the court is very troubling on most issues. We’re a razor thin line from losing every important case brought before the court.
Yeah, but you know or should know that liberals support abortion and the liberal judges are not any different
Just finding out this great news.
It made my day !!!!!!!!!!!
.
I agree. Now, is it still troubling that the court could get this one so wrong, that Hobby Lobby only prevailed by one vote? Sure it is.
I lament the condition of the court.
Our next decent president needs to be very careful who he appoints.
Even today, all too many issues are decided in the wrong way. Look no farther than the Obamacare fiasco with Justice Roberts.
WHOA! ANOTHER bitch-slap to “The WON”
How does Roberts justify this since he said Obamacare is a tax!
oh get over your Roberts Derangement symptoms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *rme*
