So, you may go cast your claims of hypocrisy somewhere else. Maybe your local mirror perhaps?
Bullshit. Hormonal and copper intrauterine devices are not "morning after pills" and the Hobby Lobby decision excludes such devices that the Mennonites find "morally objectionable". It also excludes medications that are used for the treatment of endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, certain cancers and other non-abortion purposes. These devices and medications have everything to do with the Hobby Lobby case...so don't lie about it.

Besides, your hypocrisy has nothing to do with the Hobby Lobby case, and everything to do with the fact that you've been subsidizing pretty much every form of contraception and birth control, along with legal abortions through your health insurance premiums and your federal income tax payments...and without a fucking peep outta you. Or perhaps you were just too lazy to be interested in where your health care premium dollars go.

The 'we'll pray for you' plan LOL!

Isn't that what the VA uses?

We desperately need the government to tell us what we need.

I see a pattern emerging there. I think you see it, too.

Give that VA shit a rest old friend. It's already been proved to be a non-starter as an election issue for the run up to November. It's simply a case of the House being cheapskates after the fact when it comes to vets actually getting the healthcare they were promised.
It's especially galling since the chickenhawks in Congress are the proximate cause of their injuries.

Well...serve this. It's none of your fucking business, none of my business, none of delusional David Green's business, none of Rush Limbaugh's business, none of Kelly Ayotte's business, none of Antonin Scalia's arrogantly narcissistic business either, in my non-constitutional opinion.. It's nobody's business but a woman and her physician's business.

The interesting bit is that there was not a single doctor testifying and I doubt that there was even one in the court. Isn't it amazing how all these medical decisions are taken without even consulting the people with the knowledge. I am willing to bet I know more about the human reproductive system than all five of those old farts combined.
