Hobby Lobby Going to the Supreme Court to Protect Religious Freedom as Guaranteed by the Constitution! Will not Accept Abortion Mandate!
I will be taking Thanksgiving and the weekend off. I intend to resume posting Monday. Have a great and blessed Thanksgiving!
Colossians 3: 14-16 (NIV)
“And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.”
Hebrews 12: 27-29 (NIV)
The words ‘once more’ indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our ‘God is a consuming fire.’”

“Thank You, Hobby Lobby
By Michelle Malkin
November 27, 2013
Religious liberty is front and center on the nation’s Thanksgiving table. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Sebelius v. Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. The family-owned craft store company is intrepidly challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare’s abortion coverage mandate (Clearly unconstitutional!—my addition). Hobby Lobby’s faithful owners deserve our thanks and praise as they defend freedom of conscience for all Americans.
The privately held retail chain’s story is the quintessential American Dream. Founder David Green started out making mini picture frames in his Oklahoma garage in 1970. He recruited his two sons, Mart and Steve, to pitch in at an early age. The family’s first establishment took up a tiny 300 square feet of retail space. Hobby Lobby now runs nearly 600 stores across the country, employs 13,000 people and topped $2 billion in sales in 2009.The Greens’ Christian faith is at the heart of how they do business. They are dedicated to integrity and service for their customers and their employees. The debt-free company commits to ‘honoring the Lord in all we do by operating the company in a manner consistent with biblical principles,’ as well as ‘serving our employees and their families by establishing a work environment and company policies that build character, strengthen individuals and nurture families (As ideal a company as sinful man can devise!—my addition).’
The company donates more than 10 percent of its income every year to charity. All stores are closed on Sundays to allow employees more family and worship time. It’s the company’s dedication to biblical principles that led Hobby Lobby in April to raise full-time employees’ starting minimum wage to $14 an hour at a time when many other firms have been forced to slash both wages and benefits (And without government interference!—my addition).’
We believe that it is by God’s grace that Hobby Lobby has endured, and he has blessed us and our employees,’ CEO David Green pointed out. ‘We’ve not only added jobs in a weak economy; we’ve raised wages for the past four years in a row. Our full-time employees start at 80 percent above minimum wage.’
Many of Hobby Lobby’s employees are single moms working two jobs. Green doesn’t need federal mandates to tell him how to treat and retain good employees. He does it because it is the ‘right thing to do.’ While countless businesses have been forced to drop health insurance for their shrinking workforces during the Age of Obama, Hobby Lobby headquarters opened an onsite comprehensive health care and wellness clinic in 2010 with no co-pays.
Hobby Lobby employees are covered under the company’s self-insured health plan, which brings us back to the company’s legal case. Last September, Hobby Lobby sued the feds over Obamacare ‘preventive services’ mandate, which forces the Christian-owned-and-operated business to provide, without co-pay, abortion-inducing drugs including the ‘morning after pill’ and ‘week after pill’ in their health insurance plan. The company risked fines up to $1.3 million per day for defying the government’s coercive abridgement of their First Amendment rights (A clear violation of the Constitution by a corrupt and tyrannical executive branch of the federal government!—my addition).
As Lori Windham, senior counsel for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which is representing Hobby Lobby in its court battles, said at the time: ‘Washington politicians cannot force families to abandon their faith just to earn a living (True!—my addition). Every American, including family business owners like the Greens, should be free to live and do business according to their religious beliefs (True!—my addition).’ Amen.
This summer, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals exempted Hobby Lobby from the abortion mandate and allowed the business to avoid those crippling fines while pursuing its case. Now, the Supreme Court will decide whether Democratic Party pandering trumps bedrock constitutional principles (Which is exactly the issue!—my addition).
Planned Parenthood femme-a-gogues, Senate Democratic leaders, Christian-bashing celebs and atheist bullies immediately attacked Hobby Lobby for ‘denying women access to birth control (They do NOT have the right for other people or businesses to pay for them!—my addition).’ The lies and religious persecution, especially on the eve of America’s national holiday commemorating the pilgrims’ escape thereof, are unconscionable. Hobby Lobby’s company health insurance plan covers 16 of the 20 FDA-approved contraceptives required under the Obamacare mandate—at no additional costs to employees. What Hobby Lobby refuses to do is to be forced to cover abortifacients that violate the owners’ faith and conscience (Abortion—baby MURDERING—drugs!—my addition).
Every employee is aware of the founders’ history, devout work ethic and faith. No one is forced to work at Hobby Lobby. If workers want birth control (They are more than birth control! They MURDER babies!—my addition), they can pay for it themselves. (And unlike so many other service workers, they have more take-home pay to spend on the ‘preventive services’ of their choice.)
The intolerant control freaks at the White House took to Twitter right after the Supreme Court announcement to pile on the pander to the Sandra Fluke/Lena Dunham wing of the Democratic Party. ‘Birth control should be a woman’s decision, not her boss’s (And NOT the government’s! The government has NO authority to require businesses to provide anything to its workers! That is between the owner(s) and the employees! The government is being tyrannical! Nothing new about that with the Obama Administration! They seem to think government through them is god! It is NOT!—my addition),’ Team Obama tweeted. That’s precisely the argument against federally mandated health care benefits enforced by government in violation of religious liberty and subsidized by employers and taxpayers against their will. Let’s pray the Supreme Court sees the light (At least five! Four are going to side with Obama because they do not care about the Constitution!—my addition).”

Wealth in the Senate: This is a couple of years old but it is the latest information I could fine with a quick search. Notice the top seven are all Democrats—the supposed Party of the poor and underprivileged! John Kerry is now Secretary of State. Herb Kohl is no longer in the Senate. Frank Lautenberg recently died, has been replaced, and his widow was given $174,000 by Congress using a provision in a law just passed. Of course, all seven, as Democrats, are pro-MURDER in their voting records although back home they may claim otherwise!

Ballotpedia has compiled data on the average net worth of our elected officials for the years 2004 to 2010. As the average net worth of Congress has increased since 2004, and held about even from 2007 to 2010, the average American family net worth dropped 40 percent from 2007 to 2010 to an average of $77,300.
In 2010, the average net worth for a U.S. senator was $13,224,333. The average net worth for a Democratic senator was $19,383,524, compared to $7,054,258 for a Republican senator. That’s a difference of $12.3 million.
The top ten richest senators, the highest seven of which are Democrats, from this Ballotpedia table:

http://www.heritage.org/marriage/
We need to keep supporting and working for PRO-LIFE, PRO-TRADITIONAL FAMILY candidates and representatives at all levels of government.
Never get complacent!
Never give-up!
NEVER SURRENDER!
You will know them by their words and deeds!
Matthew 12: 35-37 (NIV)
“A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Matthew 11: 19b (NIV)
“But wisdom is proved right by her deeds.”
