ENDA the Road?

Now LGBT rights advocates are running from ENDA due to the Hobby Lobby decision (Huffington Post). The same decision that bolsters supporters of same-sex marriage' argument that government has no business defining marriage.

There is so much confusion. Can someone get this straight?... 
We think we have some answers:

1. ENDA is the Barry Goldwater-endorsed workplace protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Few exceptions are allowed for religious institutions and private clubs/unions (like is the case with the Civil Rights Act of 1964). Proponents of the bill cite the 14th Amendment for justification on application of anti-discrimination laws.
2. The Hobby Lobby ruling not only sided with religious liberty, but 1st Amendment expression.
3. Marriage is a 1st Amendment protected personal expression. 
4. States have the right to make marriage laws under the 10th Amendment.
5. The 14th Amendment guarantees citizens of a state receive equal application of all laws passed.

Basically, the same left-leaning LGBT advocates who claim the Hobby Lobby ruling is terrible, though it supports their marriage argument, are now using it for the purpose of pulling support from ENDA, which protects LGBT workers....

This is why Republicans must own these issues...
