Finally -- some good news in the battle between so-called reproductive rights and religious liberty.
"How supremely ironic is it that at the same time the Obama Administration is seeking to force religious organizations to offer insurance coverage of abortion-inducing drugs, a federal district court in Washington State has ruled that the state cannot force pharmacies to dispense those very same…Continue
