The headline is a bit misleading. The question the Supreme Court has chosen to address is whether a corporation has Constitutional rights under the religious freedom clause of the First Amendment. The Court has already held that corporations have rights under the free speech segment of the First Amendment, but it’s a little easier to understant how a corporation, in its own name, can engage in speech;a little harder to understand how a corporation in its own name can engage in religious observance. Of course, though Democrats don’t know this, corporations are owned by human beings, and — though Democrats don’t know this either — human beings CAN meaningfully engage in religious observance. But the line between the corporation and its human owners is the question before the Supreme Court in this case.

Hoping Judge Roberts won’t betray the American people and the Constitution again.

I have NO hope. I’ll bet that once bullied supreme court justices won’t need to be bullied again.

Idiot government should not push any business to provide contraceptives to employees, they should simply require all people on the govteat plan to be child free. If that means we provide the means to stop unwanted pregnancies, then we just do it rather than have all these feral urban leeches make more welfare cases or have abortions. Just make them unable to bring more welfare into the fold.

mandate, according to Judge Janice Rogers...

I thought she was Judge Janice Rogers Brown. Why did IBD change her name?

Chris has decided that it doesn’t, and I’m not seeking input from anyone else.

I guess nobody in the lower courts ever said, “wait, you’re trying to tell us that employees can’t pony up a couple of bucks for their own voluntary sexual activities?”

I don’t really give a rat’s ass what SCOTUS has to say about it.
