I urge all liberal women to express their disgust at this outrage by emigrating to another country that truly respects their rights.

It seems that liberal commentators have convinced themselves that, just as was the case in 1911, the courts and the country have deemed women to be of lesser value than their male counterparts.

WTH?

There was immense uproar in 1911 over the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire at least partly because most of the victims were women.

Where does this writer get the odd notion that the victims were considered of lesser value then?

The headline makes an assumption without any supporting evidence that these leftists had a mind at some point

Well, let’s just say that I consider liberal women and liberal men to be of equal value.

can't believe we live in a world where we'd even consider letting big corps deny women access to basic care based on vague moral objections. — Elizabeth Warren

You ain't seen nothing, yet.

How about the hundreds of thousands of mid-size manufacturing and service companies under partner/single owner control (say 400-20,000 employees)?

This isn't a "BIG CORP" issue, its a mid size and small size issue, and if they have faith in themselves and are driven by rugged individualism, you can bet they also have a "smidgen" of faith. It truly lifts a burden.

They’re fanatical idiots that have no understanding of liberty.

Supreme Court rules that bosses can deny employees coverage of birth control. #HobbyLobby #NotMyBossBusiness

Just not even close to being true.

Does anyone remember Bart Stupak?

He was a Democrat congressman in 2010 when Obamacare came up for a vote. His problem with Obamacare was that it forced companies to pay for abortions over their moral objections.

He got a promise from King Obama himself that the law wouldn't do that. Mr. Stupak was satisfied, and he voted for the "new" law, with those provisions. (I think the whole thing was a ploy to make people think that the law was "reasonable"--even conservative democrats were voting for it.)

Anyway, those provisions were made in the Obamacare law itself. Companies and religious institutions wouldn't have to pay for abortions and contraception.

Fast forward to 2014. Surprise, surprise, surprise! The Stupak provisions no longer apply.

Someone needs to research the law as it was passed, find the Stupak clauses, and and wave them in the Democrats' faces.

What are they going to do when the EBT flashes “error” because there is no more fake money to distribute?

Get violent, that’s what.

This decision points out that killing babies is wrong.

They wanted it to be codified that baby killing is “OK” in our society.

_____________________

If the size of Hobby Lobby is the standard, then we ought to consider that she has 21,000 employees spread out over several states in the country (561 stores as of last count with a revenue of over $2.3 Billion ).

I’m loving it. The decision is so basically toothless it scarcely matters, but the histrionics of Liberals are always amusing.
