No Good Can Come From This.

       Wanna hear a funny story? The U.S. Supreme Court. Well actually that's not so much the joke, the joke is what the high court is doing. A few weeks ago our Supreme Court chose to allow for-profit corporations to claim the same rights as churches. That is, they can claim that paying for contraceptives violates their religious beliefs. But as columnist Leonard Pitts suggests, there's no word on Viagra or vasectomies. The court said a company can fill out a simple form and they can be exempted from paying for those nasty contraceptives.
       Then three days later, they decided that companies cannot be required to fill out those simple forms in order to be exempt. The reasoning being, and here's the punch line, is that by filling out those objectionable forms it would "Trigger the employee's ability to get the disputed contraception."
       In other words, if the company doesn't want a female employee to use contraceptives, they can still get the exemptions without automatically suggesting those females use any of those nasty things. Do ya get it? So if you're a woman who works for one of these companies, you'd better make sure your mate has had his vasectomy or uses condoms and whatever you do, don't get raped.
       But the really odd part of this is that first the court decided you must fill out this short form, then three days later it stated that such forms are not permitted. That seems a very clear message that the old men on the high court know exactly what they're doing and it has to do with the Constitution. If you read your history, you'll see that our founding fathers foresaw this day in which such things as contraceptives could become available. They determined that contraceptives are bad, but Viagra is good. Now there's an old man's dream come true. But it should scare the daylights out of women.
