Think Hobby Lobby is just about 4 forms of birth control? Think again!

The highest court in the land made their decision. Lefties need to learn to take the bitter with the sweet. All this public display of anxiety is pointless and I see no reason to entertain it. Logic dictates that. My advice would be to deal with it.

Interestingly that is also my advise to you when you keep losing presidential elections because you have alienated women. The 5 Republican Clerics on SCOTUS have made the bed, GOP will have to sleep in it.

Now you lash out like a child. Color me uncaring.

Lash out not found. I will enjoy reading another of Reince Preibus' post-mortems after 2016 though.

We alienated Hispanics, we alienated women, why are we still losing presidential elections? Did we forget to alienate someone? 😀

If women can be bought off by "free" birth control pills subsidized directly from the pockets of their fathers, sons, and brothers, then they were never really on the Republican side to alienate.
 
Employers pay for Viagra.

No, employer's prescription drug plans pays for a portion of the cost so the person getting Viagra or similar drug is paying a brand name copay (approximately $6/pill) and receive a limited amount per month (2 per week).

Most prescription drug plans charge a copay for birth control pills as they see them as another prescription drug.
 
Most insurance programs pay 100% for an annual physical (I would bet that Hobby Lobby's health insurance provides this coverage), a woman that works for them could get a prescription for birth control during the physical, then take the prescription to Walmart and get the birth control pills for $9/month. That's about the same price as those with employer provided prescription drug plans pay. Canadians pay similar prices for their generic birth control pills as well.

Any 2014 plan that meets ACA requirements provides 100% free annual physicals and 100% free BC. There are plans out there that were exempted but eventually their exemptions go away or the 2013 plans that many got will not be the same when they renew in 2014/2015. The ACA mandate is 100% free birth control, and that covers all the different types.

Well they made it on very shaky ground and Robert's even made a clear path forward for the legislature to reverse their stance.

Whether or not you agree with the whole ACA, the ruling is just one in a series that perverts any logical interpretation of what a corporation is. It is possible that it will have far greater consequences than birth control.

This is especially true when you consider the supreme court blithely ruled that birth control does unduly impact the religion despite no mention in the bible. Thus this ruling can extend to any number of claims by a corporation not inherently stated within any written word of religion. This issue is getting clouded by everyone jumping on the anti-feminism bandwagon but it will get worse as corporations start getting creative.

Wait until corporations start choosing health plans that don't include immunizations because its against their "religion".

Right so covering one and not the other is hypocrisy.
