This whole drive to paint Hobby Lobby as hypocrites is merely an attempt to incite hate in Hobby Lobby. If you buy into these arguments without looking at them critically, you are simply buying into the hate others are selling.
I can see sincere pro-lifers being dismayed with the carelessness Hobby Lobby is showing in their investments.

They could easily change mutual funds or get the garbage they sell from India, Pakistan or Indonesia incomes to child labor abuses. Oh yeah, they also don't allow religious worship.
stead of China. Why are you so blind their hypocrisy & political grandstanding?
Hobby Lobby's "hypocrisy" has nothing to do with the constitutionality of that clause of the law.
Now here is one to think about. The Affordable Care Act did not contain a severability clause(it was included in drafts but was taken out of the final version). Since a portion of the law was struck down couldn't an argument be made that the entire law is subsequently struck down?
It would go to sincerity of belief. LIke the warden at the penitentiary doesn't have to provide personal lube for the penis worshippers on death row (or does he?), so if the Hobby Lobby family is just doing a little wealth transfer to the lawyer caste, for the hell of it, it would have a bearing on whether or not the supremes would bother to weigh in on it.
