Not sure what you mean, the only two tools you have are these.

This ruling hinges on the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which was passed in 1993 to redress an earlier court ruling against Native Americans who’d used the hallucinogen peyote as part of a religious ceremony.

Ironically, that Supreme Court ruling was written by Justice Antonin Scalia, while the RFRA passed in response was supported by Sen. Harry Reid and signed into law by President Bill Clinton.
The law’s purpose was to give broader protections to religious freedom.

If the government wants to impose a rule that substantially burdens an American’s free exercise of religion, the law says, it not only has to have a compelling interest, it has to use the least-restrictive means possible.

By contrast, the president seems to make a habit of forcing people to pay for his preferences.
In this case, he threatened to crush anyone who objected with huge fines — running to $475 million a year for Hobby Lobby alone. Writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito observed that if these fines “do not amount to a substantial burden, it’s hard to see what would.”


Yet again, hoops2 cuts and pastes from a copyrighted article and pretends he was the one who wrote its properly-spelled, grammatically-correct words.

This time he's just copying an editorial from today's New York Post, one of the mouths on Rupert Murdoch's right wing noise machine.







Why should hoops2 think for himself when Rupert Murdoch will do it for him?


And this:

The Obama administration is struggling to resolve data discrepancies that could jeopardize coverage for millions who sought health insurance on the federal exchange HealthCare.gov, according to a watchdog report on the still-rocky implementation of ObamaCare.

Though the system's troubles have faded from the headlines since the problem-plagued launch last October, a report from the health department inspector general provided the first independent look at widespread issues the government is having effectively fact-checking the information applicants are putting in the system.

According to the report, the administration was unable to resolve 2.6 million so-called "inconsistencies" out of a total of 2.9 million such problems from October through December 2013.

The government needs to determine applicants' eligibility in order to verify they can enroll and, in some cases, get government subsidies. Without that step, coverage could be jeopardized. Critics fear these issues also could cause chaos during the 2015 tax-filing season, as many would have to pay back subsidy money they were not entitled to.

According to the report, those running the federal marketplace are having trouble resolving problems "even if applicants submitted appropriate documentation."

"The federal marketplace was generally incapable of resolving most inconsistencies," the report said, claiming the government could not resolve 89 percent of the problems


Yet another example of hoops2 just cutting and pasting properly-spelled, grammatically-correct words from Rupert Murdoch's right-wing noise machine and pretending he wrote them himself.

This time its a Fox News story he stole word for word and is pretending he wrote. I know, shocking, right?

Hey hoops2, I found an avatar for you:


Your toolbox barely contains the school supplies of a gifted preschooler

Okay Jatki.....you want to play that game ? EPIC FAIL on your part and on Hoops part !! WHY ?

Jatki - Your obsession with "factual" ideas is ABSOLUTE FUCKING BULLSHIT !!!

Hoops posts ONE OF THE BIGGEST LIES EVER PERPETRATED ON THE FFA.....AND YOU DON'T CALL HIM OUT !

Even a child of 3 could do math better than Hoops. Hoops states that 23 Americans were killed in the downing of the Malaysian Airlines plane earlier this week.

23 he states. Remember that number. It's one more than 22, and one less than 24, in case you have a hard time with math that goes beyond 10.

The only problem with his 23 Americans killed, is that only 1 was killed. Hoops exaggerated the American death count by 2,200%.

And yet you don't call him out on that. And you have the frickin nerve to question my "factual ideas".

Okay. enough for now. I don't want to keep you from your rerun of Huckabee.

There was no lie. I quoted early news reports that there were 23 Americans were killed. Whether it was 1 or 23 Americans killed it was to many & Obama's response was disinterested as he was more concerned about attending another fundraiser. And he has no interest in the Marine detained in Mexico for almost 4 months.

Hoops, as I've also seen on this site, many of the resident Liberals don't understand the word "lie".

Ahh !!! Thats a beaut isn't it? Dont ya love it when people like Louis Golmert bellyache about deadbeats who suck of the government....and how people who sweat 40/hrs a week at a real job don't deserve a living wage? Or complain how the president is out playing golf?

Life in John Boehner's Congress: a six figure salary with lifetime benefits and 2-day work week. Its good work if you can get it ("work" being a kind euphemism). The drive-through attendant at your local McDonalds did more work last week than John Boehner has done since 2010.

They didn't work much more under the Pelosi. Add up the time they're focused on fundraising and party business and personal business and I bet they don't do 'The People's Work' 10 hours a week. This is an indictment against Congress...both Republicans and Democrats. Throw the bums out.

Perhaps poor old DonDiego has underestimated the good qualities of a benevolent dictator. At least it would be more efficient.

I wasn't suggesting we get rid of the bums in congress and move to a dictatorship*. I was suggesting we need new bums in congress....or better yet new Not-Bums in congress.

*I know some might think it's too late for that.

alanleroy's proposal would lead to some improvement, . . . but likely of limited effect and quite transitory. DonDiego opines that spending vast quantities of other people's money, . . . whether by an oligarch or an elected assembly, . . . gets to be addictive, until it's all gone.
