"Feet, don't fail me now..." Scott Brown (R), aspiring New Hampshire senator, is an early victim, choosing to run away from a reporter rather than answer the question.

ya know, if conservatives were smart ... which they aren't ... they could have used abortion as way of reducing the population, which, in turn, causes those who are alive to pay more in taxes.

of course, an immediate democrat response would be to open the borders for more immigration, which the conservatives would fight because, as far as they're concerned, we have more than our fair share.

In other words, the heart

In other words, the heart-ache the tea-baggers have caused the GOP is nothing compared to the hell the religious right is going to bring down when they start feeling their oats.

Seems the GOP has opted to the the political punching bag for all the political misfits that purposefully misinterpreted the Constitution and what to take the nation back to an era that never was as they imagined.

Go ahead, Repugnants, piss

Go ahead, Repugnants, piss women off. They not only have the numbers, they also have the money, and they are giving it to the Dems. (Pity Rogie, he watches Joe Scumbag so you don't have to...)

They are doomed alright.

They are doomed alright. Because Hobby Lobby and those 5 black robes can "Kiss my Grits." Women have the human right to choose from all medical options of birth control no matter who is their employer. I don't care what works it's way through the courts, women are not going to put up with it. They woke up a sleeping giant. I have waited all my adult life to see women vote as a block. I just may see that in the next few election cycles. I don't see the GOP making any large gains. They will be working hard to just to hang on to what they got. The Senate and White House it lost to them.

In reply to "But how much of your

Let's take Anon at face value, and deconstruct his reference to "depravity" (I just love the 19th century, don't you?

He actually is in is (putative) satire not far from a meme currently circulating on the right, viz. Hobby Lobby means women can say goodbye to 'consequence free sex'".

Nothing so clearly will educate those women still not understanding how the patriarchy views their concerns and welfare as there ensues a full etiolation of the reasoning merely gestured at by Alioto--that there is something unique about contraception that warrants different treatment from any other sort of medical intervention.

The right is doomed to having to walk this path, as we can surely envision a slew of "sincerely held religious disinclinations" to provide any number of medical services, or to accommodate any number of non-discriminatory mandates. In reasoning how the objected to generally accepted mandate or stated religious scruple, or both, is distinguishable from the (dreaded) no co-pay contraception, subsequent courts (and those who argue for these wider exemptions, or who attempt to explain why Hobby Lobby skates but Jehovah's Witnesses don't, or why blood transfusions get covered but fibroid prevention does not, will enter an intellectual morass from which they will never be heard from again.

"But how much of your depravity should they have to pay for????"

I'm assuming that by depravity you mean having sex? And who is paying for it? "They" don't seem to mind paying for Viagra. That same "they" sure hates paying for children's food once they are born. And "they" don't even go along with the concept that all people (once pushed out of a vagina that is) should be able to get health care.

I am hoping Rex is right and you are just writing for satirical grins

O-K, as much as I PRAY that Anon. is a sincere example of Repugnant push back, so helpful in flushing the Pugs down history's sewer will be this tone from*his ilk, I rather suspect that his comment is meant as satire, so closely does it resemble Limbaugh's biology comprehension challenged remarks suggesting that the dailiy ingestion of a birth control pill was occasioned by daily copulation (not that daily copulation is in any way excessive, and we all inow that when you are in love, it's hard to keep it down to three times a day, but I digress...)

*gotta be, or be in possession of a dick, no doubt.

Here we see the typical conservative. Unable to make a rational argument he descends to insults.

Supreme Court decisions do not decide single cases alone. They enunciate principles of law applicable to many other cases. While Hobby Lobby only objected to 4 of 20 forms of contraceptives there are several dozen similar cases winding their way through the courts. Many of these are attempting to refuse to pay for all 20 forms of contraception. All these cases have been sent back to their respective lower courts with instructions to re-evaluate. This granting of religious rights to a corporation may not only apply to contraception but also to corporate religious exemptions in many other areas.
