And the hits just keep on comin'.

A Federal judge has ruled that Obamacare's requirement that employers must offer contraception and abortion coverage, is a violation of the employer's religious freedom where religious norms consider abortion or contraception to be immoral.

No surprise, really. That has been clear from the day Obamacare was proposed. But the liberal fanatics who wrote it, have been terminally convinced of the superiority of their own ideas over anyone else's. And with so little visibility of religious teachings, it probably never occurred to them that normal Americans would mind. Now it will all play out along the inevitable lines of screaming, lies, subject changes, denigration, and haughty sneers.

Judge: Feds Can’t Make Domino’s Founder Offer Birth Control

March 14, 2013 6:31 PM

DETROIT (WWJ/AP) — A federal judge has blocked the Obama administration from requiring Domino’s Pizza founder Tom Monaghan to provide mandatory contraception coverage to his employees under the federal health care law.

The devout Roman Catholic says he considers contraception “gravely immoral” practice. His lawsuit also lists as a plaintiff his Domino’s Farms, an office park outside Ann Arbor.

On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Lawrence Zatkoff granted a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the law against Monaghan and Domino’s Farms.

Monaghan has sold most of his controlling stake in Domino’s Pizza. He offers health insurance that excludes contraception and abortion for employees.

The new federal law requires employers to offer insurance including contraception coverage or risk fines.

The Michigan Catholic Conference and other Catholic entities also sued over the new law, saying it violates religious freedom by requiring many religiously affiliated hospitals, schools and charities to comply.
