I like Hobby Lobby. I mean, no, it’s a mom and pop place, but it was one of the highlights of certain shopping excursions.

My better half would drag me a to fabric store that was next to a Borders (now a Books a Million; thankfully, there’s still a bookstore in the spot) and then to Hobby Lobby. I loved looking at the sketchbooks and the easels.

It turns out that the management of Hobby Lobby are collective a–hats.

They are suing to deny contraceptive coverage to their employees.

I understand the owner’s religious objections. In my personal life, my partner and I do not, in accordance with my Catholic faith, use contraception. That’s our choice. And if she decided to take birth control pills, that’s also her choice. Her religious beliefs do not require adherence to the non-practice of contraception.

And Hobby Lobby’s spokespeople and lawyers are talking like they’re going to dig in their heels on this one.
