Leftists are so funny.
They spend 40 years talking about how corporations must have a "conscience" and not make profits their sole goal, and then when some corporations decide that contraception violates their conscience, they suddenly discover that having a "corporate conscience" is a bad thing.
It's another day of Liberal Fizbin.

"Corporations are People."
Here is Romney's exchange with an "occupy-type" protester where Romney explains that an option for meeting government's commitments are to raise taxes on people. When an Occupier yells out "corporations," Romney calmly and good-naturedly explains that "corporations are people" because the profits of corporations ultimately go to people.
This is obviously true. Moreover, when corporations do bad things, it is people doing those bad things. Corporations are nothing more than a way that people organize themselves freely and collectively. Thus, corporations aren't greedy; people are greedy.
The even stranger thing about this exchange is that Romney is actually saying that he would raise taxes on corporation. After all, if he is agreeable to raising taxes on people, and corporations are people, it follows that he is including corporations among those that he would tax.
So, why is this such a big "tell" for Democrats?
Here is the video of the exchange:
