From the ad:

"Allowing employers to decide what birth control an "employee can use is not, as the Supreme Court ruled an exercise of religion". It is an exercise in tyranny.

Of course, the government mandating that an employer must pay for abortifacients is not tyranny. And since when has Hobby Lobby controlled what birth control their employers used? The delusion is staggering.

This is what the left does. They distort and outright lie about the facts, to get to their predetermined talking points.

A case dealing with which particular birth control devices are mandated to be paid for, becomes, in the minds of the left, a case of tyranny if the decision is that employers do not have to cover certain devices. It is considered tyranny by the left if there is not a requirement that all of this birth control be paid for. The left perceives any actions which don’t comport to liberal views as somehow turning back the clock, or turning America into a theocracy. This shows how twisted and demented their minds are, to draw such conclusions from this case.

Anywhere, does the left address the law at hand, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act? That law was passed when Democrats controlled Congress in 1993, and signed into law by a good Democrat, Bill Clinton.

Does the left have any vitriol for the Democrats who gave us that law? Chuck Shumer was a sponser of that law. Yet he’s a reliable liberal. Why aren’t they going after him? Why not after Clinton for signing this allegedly evil legislation? Where’s the intellectual honesty on the left?
