The Contraception Mandate Loses Again April 17, 2015
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Folks, this is an important thing that happened yesterday. The Supreme Court, for I don't know, the fifth or sixth time now, is temporarily halting the enforcement of Obamacare's contraception mandate against several Catholic organizations in Pennsylvania. "In a ruling issued late Wednesday, Justice Samuel Alito said the mandate is 'recalled' pending a response from the federal government.
"Government officials have until Monday to brief the court. ... The Supreme Court has already issued four rulings instructing the government to exempt certain companies or organizations with a religious background -- such as arts-and-crafts retailer Hobby Lobby -- from the rule."
The court has consistently found, every time that the case has come before them, a case, they have consistently found for the freedom of religion over a government mandate. And the government keeps coming back. The government refuses to accept these rulings, and they keep challenging, and they keep trying to force religious organizations to accept the contraception mandate in Obamacare.
So they're 0-for-5 here. It's one of these things, when you hear about it, you say hallelujah. It's one of those small pockets, small areas, where the Regime is being beaten back on a consistent basis. Now, as I say, the Regime keeps coming back, they keep challenging this. But they keep losing. But, see, that doesn't matter. The ultimate word of the court is irrelevant to them. They're just gonna keep pushing and pushing because this is one of the undisclosed primarily purposes of Obamacare, is to tear apart all of the religion-based, as many of the religion based foundations that hold our culture and society together
There is a deep resentment, there is a deep hatred for religious people, particularly Christian religious people, by the left in this country, and there's been an all-out assault, and they thought they could really score points here, Obamacare, health care for all Americans, affordable health care for all Americans. They promised all this, that there wouldn't be any federal funding of abortion, there wouldn't be any demands that people with religious objections be made to pay for anything to do with abortion. They lied through their teeth and the court keeps beating them back. This is five times now.
