30 Republicans voted against a measure put for by Senator Al Franken that would have ended contracts for companies who deny their employees the right to a jury hearing if they are sexually assaulted, as happened with Jamie Leigh Jones from Halliburton. Apparently their campaign contributions mean more than the health and safety of women working for these companies. Mike Papantonio calls out these "Republicans for Rape" in this week's Pap Attack

1. What's the White House's take

The reason I'm asking is because I have not seen much about this bill since it was passed by the Senate, with the exception of the 30 pro-rapists Senators who voted against it!!!

2. They have not uttered one god damned word about this. Are they pro-rape as well?
As disgusting as that is, the question needs to be asked.

And why is this not the lead story for weeks? Must be that librul media.

3. R7. This isn’t about rape. It is about these men’s ambivalence for those of us in the lower classes.
These men feel they are in a class above the rest of us. They are not held to our laws and they or their corporations can do whatever they want to us. Their corporations and the ruling class elitists couldn’t care less what happens to us. They are ambivalent about our plights. We can lose our houses, jobs, family, be raped or killed and they don’t care as long as their way of life isn’t affected.

Rape is arguably the worst crime against a person. But it doesn’t matter to these men.

CorpAmerica uber alles.
