#1 This is all for sow. The bill will never make it to hearings in the House. And it would end up in court anyways for First Amendment reasons. These people just don't get it, they are goons who want to force others against their will.

#2 A meaningless political message or demonstration, that is intended to support the radical base and recommends continuing to elect democrats who will legislatively overturn the law.

#3 The Supremes ruled on the basis of the Constitution, IIRC. So who is going to draft a bill to override the Constitution - Maxine Waters?

#4 ..oh, they'll do it by Administrative (bureaucratic) law, rather than Constitutional law. Who and what are going to challenge it successfully? There are no checks and balances.

#6 IANAL, but wasn't the SCOTUS ruling primarily on the application of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which was not overridden by the ACA proper, and could not by definition by set aside by executive-branch regulation allegedly authorized by ACA? It follows the *logic* of First Amendment constitutional law, but it's still limited to the RFRA proper, and the Democrats could theoretically toss it back into the courts by repealing or amending the RFRA. If, you know, they had a chance in hell of getting such a bill through the House.

#8 Shell game trick. Keep the masses focused on abortion, religion, etc... While we continue to fleece and destroy the country. If they spent as much energy on running this country as they do on deception we would, once again, be the greatest nation...

#9 As I have stated many times, all of this sh$$ will come to a screeching halt fifteen seconds after we the people hang the first DemocratCongresscritter. Lord knows there's enough of them that have absolutely no respect for the rule of law or the Constitution. Patty Murray wouldn't be my first choice (cough -- harry reid -- cough), but she'd definitely be on my list.

#11 Nope, just the blue pills your mom brings with her. When you try to kiss her goodnight, tell her the bag helps me too.

#12 Business needs to know everything about bedroom habits now they're being asked to fund bedroom habits.

#13 The Dems believe that SCOTUS withdrew their support prematurely?
