#18  Hey, if someone else has to pay for Birth control, then they should have to pay for my ammo. Fair enough in my book.

#17  Iblis and others, please join me in worship by partaking in beer consumption.

#16  "Might be a good idea, Iblis. But you'd have to go to church every Sunday to prove that you are sincere."

Sincerity is not an issue. As for worship, didn't Franklin say that beer is proof there is a God and that he loves us? I feel a spiritual moment coming on...

#15  Hey - how about starting a Constitutionalist Religion?
Or maybe the Church of the Productively Employed? Attend 4-5 days a week, so much more religious than those others. Of course, government workers wouldn't qualify.

#14  The wholesale slaughter of innocent people [Jews, the elderly, women and children] was a convenient outcome for some during the 20th Century as well. Why is the connection so illusive ?

#12  "Forcing me to buy insurance is against my religion. Can I opt out now?"

Aren't Mooslims exempt? Maybe Amish too. They don't have to pay Social Security. Hey - how about starting a Constitutionalist Religion?

#11  The Amish have long been exempted from military service due to their religious beliefs. The public funding of genocide as a birth control mechanism is permissible for Ginsberg and the other liberals. Strange, very strange.

#10  So Hobby Lobby employees can't get four types of abortion pills free, but do get 16 other types of the Pill for free. Just think this had to go all the way to the SC to decide that religious rights are covered in the Constitution.

A prime example of a First World Problem politicized and lawyered up to death.

#7  Socialist (everything else is just pretense)

#6  Does anyone know how the "wise latina" voted? Did she vote like a socialist or a Catholic? Which narrative will the liberals be pushing this week?

#5  In my read, it was narrowly applied to smaller family owned companies not publicly traded corporations which Hobby Lobby is rather than say Walmart.

In the labor case, the state of Corruption Illinois had forced independent home care providers into unions and thus the extraction of protection money and reelection kickback union dues. The court left open the issue when dealing with full time traditionally classified government workers.

#4  The Supremes are beginning to act with some wisdom. The decision regarding the penalty vs tax decision on ACA(ObamaCare)was a debacle. They should have driven a nail in that coffin then. Three good decisions in a row, NLRB recess appointments, Hobby Lobby and religious beliefs, and SEIU union decision. Can't say much for the liberals on the court; they marched in lock step with the Donk talking points and agenda on the last two decisions. However, they did go along on the NLRB decision.

#3  And the "Liberal" judges also supported forcing non-union people to pay union dues.

It is all about the control.

#2  The court's four liberal justices dissented.

As we knew they surely would. Yet another nail in the ACA coffin.
