Hobby Lobby wins

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court says corporations can hold religious objections that allow them to opt out of the new health law requirement that they cover contraceptives for women.

The justices’ 5-4 decision Monday is the first time that the high court has ruled that profit-seeking businesses can hold religious views under federal law. And it means the Obama administration must search for a different way of providing free contraception to women who are covered under objecting companies’ health insurance plans.

Contraception is among a range of preventive services that must be provided at no extra charge under the health care law that President Barack Obama signed in 2010 and the Supreme Court upheld two years later.

High entertainment value in watching a liberal throw a hissie-fit when they don't get their way. Here's Terry O'Neill, the president of the National Organization for Women, who works war on women, apartheid, and Jim Crow into one paragraph:

"Look, we are going to make sure that women have access to reproductive health care. But let's be clear. The men who wrote this decision on behalf of the Supreme Court have entered into a war on women. They have become a blatantly politically activist anti-woman political organization. And I think it's very important. We take the position that there are some beliefs, people talk about how sincerely beheld -- how sincerely held this belief is. There are some beliefs that are so heinous a government should not respect them no way, no how. Apartheid in South Africa was justified on religious grounds. The Southern Baptist Convention justified slavery and later Jim Crow and segregation on religious grounds. We don't accept that as a society anymore and we should not accept plain out gender bigotry. Withholding basic health care from women is bigotry plain and simple. We should not accept it. No matter how sincerely the belief is held."


And all this because the Supreme Court says an employer can't be forced to pay for the morning-after pill.
