Just have to say this about the Hobby Lobby decision
This is a victory against women, especially since these same people who won't provide women with contraception are likely to provide men with Viagra and similar meds. Further, the reality is that our society is highly sexual, with 30% of all web traffic going to porn sites and scores of sites designed for one night stands. The fact that it was a narrow ruling that did not allow religious objections to such things as blood transfusions and vaccines supports the contention that this was an act of sexism by the Supreme Court. Those conservatives simply don't get it that reproductive health issues are different for women than for men. This outrageous decision is made even worse for just a couple days ago the court rejected buffer zones around abortion clinics, risking the emotional and physical safety of women seeking abortions.
These rulings by narrow minded men of another era are dangerous for all of us. But, maybe this ruling will re-energize the woman's movement, which so radically improved our nation since the 1970s. Let's hope this has a favorable effect on the upcoming elections.
