The Justice Department last week presented the Newland family of Colorado--who own Hercules Industries, a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning business--with what amounted to an ultimatum: Give up your religion or your business.

“Hercules Industries has ‘made no showing of a religious belief which requires that [it] engage in the [HVAC] business,” the Justice Department said in a formal filing in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado.
In response to the Justice Department’s argument that the Newlands can either give up practicing their religion or give up owning their business, the Alliance Defending Freedom, which is representing the family, said in a reply brief: "[T]o the extent the government is arguing that its mandate does not really burden the Newlands because they are free to abandon their jobs, their livelihoods, and their property so that others can take over Hercules and comply, this expulsion from business would be an extreme form of government burden.”

Now that the Supreme Court has upheld the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and its mandate that individuals must buy health insurance, this suit which seeks to protect a small business from being forced to take actions that violate the moral and religious beliefs of the family that owns it is likely to be the next major court battle over Obamacare.

At stake is whether businesses are protected by the First Amendment—the part of the Bill of Rights that guarantees not only the free exercise of religion but also freedom of speech and of the press.

THIS is the tyranny that Holder and Obama would unleash on our country if reelected. That you are NOT allowed to practice your 1st Amendment right to your religion and KEEP YOUR BUSINESS!

The Tyranny called Obamacare will come first in this country and the Constitution will come DEAD LAST!

We have got to get this man out of office.

From Fast and Furious to Furious at your Religious Beliefs, these radicals must be turned out and in favor or reasoned adults leading this land.

November is coming.

I hope they get their ass whooped out of office this year! :D
 
Religion has no domain over business. The government does. And if a person wishes to engage in commerce..the law of the land must be followed.

Simple as that.

I hope you are met with the same disdain.

When they say justice is blind they didnt mean democrats dont get prosecuted.
 
Hercules could just fire enough employees to get below the 50 needed in order for the law to be valid. Of course, that would be on Obama. This law allows small business to practice their religious beliefs, but not if you have over 50 employees. I thought we either had rights for everyone or none. Creating two classes of Americans is wrong.

GET THIS!

The Constitution has no domain over business. ONLY the the "government" aka OBAMA gets to decide how business is run.

THIS is your liberal thinking people.

They don't want freedom. They want their way or the highway.

This is why these hateful radicals must be voted out of office.

Thank you Sallow for making my point for me!

Obama and Holder don't want us to have rights.

He wants to get BACK at us for having the nerve to prosper under Bush.

For that we must be PUNISHED!

That's all there is to it!

BS. The Newlands are still free to practice whatever supersition they choose. They cannot dictate their religious beliefs and practices to their employees.

Yes November is coming.

Vote out all "Grover" Republicans.

No one's being forced to give up their religion.
 
Being forced to regualrly violate your religion's viewpoint is being forced to not follow it. Basically its being forced to give it up.

The past 12 years have proven that the Bush Tax cuts are unsustainable and should have been recended soon after the decision to go to war was made. Frankly, I don't mind if they let them expire for everyone. But the Congress critters need to be forced to balance the budget within 10 years.

Do you think they protested the War?

What was the Churches position on the USA invasion and occupation of Iraq?

Taxes paid for a lot of innocent Iraqi children's deaths.

So if my religious views says I need to sacrifice a virgin every Sunday - the government has no right to prevent me, correct?

What if my religious view says that soap and sanitation is the work of the Devil - and I own a restaurant? Government has no right to require me to provide a means for employees to wash their hands? Seriously?
