...told Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric in an exclusive interview that she believes the male Supreme Court justices who voted against her have a "blind spot" when it comes to women."

So says the American Communist Lawyers' Union

There’s no reason why men shouldn’t pay for their “lifestyle” needs and there’s no reason women shouldn’t either.

Which leads to some people feeling that the Court's rulings do not need to be followed. Read the following story.

Food, shelter, and clothing are far more necessities than birth control. Simply avoid sex, and a person avoids pregnancy.

But everybody has to eat and have a roof over their heads. Why is it not a businesse's obligation to provide food and shelter to their employees if birth control is also designated as a right?

employer’s health insurance plans should never include coverage for birth control - male or female!!

cleared the way for employers to deny insurance coverage of contraceptives to female workers on religious grounds

No, it did not. It did uphold the RFRA and was a denial of coverage for abortifacients, not contraceptives.

Your post is a very good one. I'm always amazed at what people say about the Hobby Lobby decision and how they miss the salient points.

Sometimes I think the media is lying but increasingly I think they're merely incompetent. And I think Ruth is incompetent here in this interview.

If, in fact, she believes what she's saying here, I don't think she's capable of judging cases. This is frightening beyond just the level of ridicule people ordinarily heap on her. I truly don't think she understands this case.

That means that 4 justices are prejudiced against men by requiring them to pay for procedures and practices they can never use and have no need for????

Her replacement could be worse...

Under the current 'administration' and such likely successors as I fear are coming your above statement should read "Her replacement *would* be worse..."
