Judge Richard George Kopf, a George H.W. Bush appointee to the federal
bench who maintains his own personal blog, has some harsh words for the
Supreme Court in the wake of their birth control decision in the closely
watched Hobby Lobby case: the Court is now causing more harm (division) to
our democracy than good by deciding hot button cases that the Court has
the power to avoid.

Earlier in the same post, Kopf explains that he believes that the Court is
diminishing its own prestige by deciding cases such as Hobby Lobby:
.
In the Hobby Lobby cases, five male Justices of the Supreme Court, who
are all members of the Catholic faith and who each were appointed by a
President who hailed from the Republican party, decided that a huge
corporation, with thousands of employees and gargantuan revenues, was a
person entitled to assert a religious objection to the Affordable Care
Acts contraception mandate because that corporation was closely held by
family members. To the average person, the result looks stupid and smells
worse.
.
To most people, the decision looks stupid cause corporations are not
persons, all the legal mumbo jumbo notwithstanding. The decision looks
misogynist because the majority were all men. It looks partisan because
all were appointed by a Republican. The decision looks religiously
motivated because each member of the majority belongs to the Catholic
church, and that religious organization is opposed to contraception. While
looks dont matter to the logic of the law (and I am not saying the
Justices are actually motivated by such things), all of us know from
experience that appearances matter to the publics acceptance of the law.
