"Just what was the ruling? In simple terms: If you’re essentially a family business, but you’re organized as a corporation purely for tax, liability and other personal reasons, you are permitted to engage in the free expression of your religious beliefs as a company. In other words, you cannot be required to make contraceptives available to your employees if you view those contraceptives as drugs that result in an abortion. Such a mandate would cause you to act contrary to your religious beliefs.
"What about the employees of Hobby Lobby? They still have, at one count, over a dozen different contraceptive methods and drugs that will be available to them under the Hobby Lobby health care plan. This is all about those drugs that some believe end the pregnancy process after an embryo has been formed.
"The irrationality that comes after this ruling is surprising. To make this point I’ll pick on Bob Beckle on today’s Fox News show “Outnumbered.” Beckel says the ruling deprives 13,000 women of contractive help. Let’s pick that apart point-by-point;
....."One of the most surprising things about this ruling would be the mindless viciousness it generated from the left. Wait … No … it wasn’t surprising. In fact, its what I’ve come to expect from the prog world. I would say that, but I’m really not surprised. This mindless viciousness is just what I’ve come to expect. The left has become increasingly violent and vicious in recent years. Why? Don’t know. Maybe it’s the empowerment they feel with an úber leftist president. Maybe it’s a defensive response to losing so many Supreme Court battles. But the viciousness is there. Examples? Just look at some of these tweets that hit Twitter in the moments following the announcement of the Court’s ruling." But don't read them out loud to your children.

- The 13,000 employees of Hobby Lobby are not all women. I would swear that I’ve seen men working there.
- The women who work for Hobby Lobby are not being deprived of contraceptive help. As I already pointed out – they still get contraceptive care under their plan. The plan just won’t cover the so-called “morning after” drugs.
- There is nothing in the Supreme Court ruling that says any woman anywhere can go and buy whatever contraceptive medication they wish with their own dollars.
