Hobby Lobby hypocrits

It's not the first time that conservatives have been accused of hypocrisy, but here we go again.   The owners of the craft supply chain, Hobby Lobby, hate the idea of being forced by the Affordable Care Act to include contraceptives in the health insurance for their employees so much that they took their case all the way to the U. S. Supreme Court.

Now the investigative team at Mother Jones magazine have revealed that Hobby Lobby's company retirement plan invests in mutual funds that include makers of the Plan B morning-after pill, as well as an IUD device and drugs that induce abortion.

Where's the consistency in this?

Stop looking for consistency, stupid.  This is politics, not religion.   Dollars to donuts, the owners of Hobby Lobby are less concerned with contraception than they are with trying to destroy the Affordable Care Act -- or, even more basic than that, trying to destroy the presidency of Barack Obama.
