I’d say this is another example of FAKE NEWS.

This is the headline from the NPR (hard left) website.

“In Narrow Decision, Supreme Court Decides In Favor Of Baker Over Same-Sex Couple   June 4, 201810:27 AM ET”

This is the case where a Colorado baker declined the business to make a cake for a gay couple.

The Supreme Court’s decision was 7 to 2. Hmmm, last time I counted on my fingers that’s only 2 votes away from a unanimous decision. Since when did an overwhelming majority decision become only NARROW victory?  Would an 8 to 1 decision still be a NARROW victory?  Go ahead and take a guess as to which 2 justices voted against the baker.  Can you say Sotomayer and Ginsberg?  No surprise that the two hardest to the  left justices were the two voting against the baker.

The leftists want to frame everything in their favor. They need to feel warm and fuzzy even when they are wrong.  Against all common sense, they frame the decision as, “We almost won today.”  They can’t man up and say, “We lost big today.”

Okay, in an attempt to be fair to NPR, the headline is misleading as to what I believe they are attempting to describe.  What they should have written was, “In a narrowly DEFINED case, Supreme Court decides…”  The argument by the majority of the Supreme Court is that Colorado law must be applied neutrally regarding religious beliefs.  The state of Colorado said that in another case, another baker was allowed to decline business which he thought was offensive, when the patron wanted to put an anti-gay message on a cake.  The court ruled that if the state allowed the precedent that offensive anti-gay messaging is sufficient grounds to decline business, then they must act in a neutral manner and allow a business to decline a pro-gay sentiment on a cake when the business owner finds the messaging offensive based on religious beliefs.

The DECISION was overwhelming, the specifics of the Court’s opinion was NARROW in scope.
