"Lie"awatha Warren Attacks Republicans and Hobby Lobby Decision

By Kim D.

Since when did Republicans wage a war on birth control? The war on women and the right to free birth control was birthed by progressives. The conservative viewpoint has always been that we don't have the right to insist others pay for our needs.

Obamacare saw to it that women receive free birth control via their employers. This hasn't changed with the SCOTUS Hobby Lobby decision. Women have in no way been denied access to purchasing birth control.

However, that inconvenient fact didn't stop Elizabeth Warren from taking the stump last week claiming the SCOTUS decision was about denying women birth control and vowing to overturn the decision over Hobby Lobby's right to invoke religious freedom and not provide four birth control drugs that the business and its owners consider abortion inducing.

Notice how Warren claims this decision was about businesses denying female employees access to birth control. Also notice that not once does she acknowledge Hobby Lobby provides 16 forms of birth control to its employees.
