Regarding the exemption of Amish and various other religious groups from the fine for not purchasing insurance under ObamaCare:

A professor and lawyer at Yeshiva University in New York complained last summer that exempting groups for religious reasons could run afoul of the Constitution. Marci A. Hamilton, who teaches at the University's Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, wrote at Findlaw.com in August, "If the government can tolerate a religious exemption, then it must do so evenhandedly among religious believers with the same beliefs. This is sheer favoritism for a certain class of religions, or even for one religion." [link]


Ironic libtard brain-case is ironic. And he's just too damn smart to see the irony of his "findings." I wish he'd find his head (perhaps its too far up his rear-end) and make the argument that the mandate itself is un-Constitutional.

There is precident for the exemption of releigious groups and it is very well established. Marci is treading very dangerious ground with her objections as they can be used against her religion.
