Condemnation came fast and furious following the Supreme Court ruling on Monday that said the Affordable Care Act’s contraceptive and sterilization mandate is unlawful because it infringes on the religious liberty of the business owners who object to providing abortion-inducing drugs to employees.
"Today's decision from five male justices is a direct attack on women and our fundamental rights,” Ilyse Hogue, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, said in a statement issued after the 5/4 decision on Monday. “This ruling goes out of its way to declare that discrimination against women isn't discrimination.”
"Allowing bosses this much control over the health-care decisions of their employees is a slippery slope with no end,” Hogue said. “Every American could potentially be affected by this far-reaching and shocking decision that allows bosses to reach beyond the boardroom and into their employees' bedrooms.”

It sounds as though the baby killers are a little upset. LOL! They’ll get over it.
I walked downtown today. Women were just dropping like flies.
Such incredible stupidity and/or duplicity.
The gutters were full of dead woman when I went to dinner. It’s amazing how fast it happens.
I’ve been hiding in my house.
Can’t be too careful.
LMAO
Wrong, Ms. Richards. You will not be denied birth control. The ruling only means that we don't have to pay for it.
I hope you have your supply of birth control pills. If you don’t take one a day you are a goner.
I’ve never taken them.
Have I been a goner all these years?
;D
Have you seen some of these “gals”? Most aren’t going to be in need of birth control of any type. They have a natural built in case.
They live by the slogan.
Plan B might work. Get the name of each guy you “hang out” with and charge them for your contraceptives.
Why is it that when rulings like this come down that essentially tell Women , NO you cannot force someone else to pay for your sex life, you can pay for it yourself, they lose their minds??
I’m no birth control pill expert.. but I recall about a weeks worth of them that are just sugar pills..
I think you could safely skip those and not die ;)
So many news stories have this story wrong. Hobby Lobby already provides some birth control for their employees.
What they were objecting to was the mandate that Obamacare issued that was against their family faith since they are a “closely held” family company.
This doesn’t apply to big corporations. I really think a Catholic source would get the story straight.
You must be a witch. No witches are good. You must be a conservative.
And the reason that justices got away with their decision is because parents are not making sure that their children are being taught the difference between legislative and judicial powers.
All this ruling does is stop companies from having to fund abortifacients. Hobby Lobby’s current insurance covers 16 types of birth control. They objected only to abortifacients.
Does she weigh the same as a duck?
