Here are the names of 30 senators who believe that corporations hired by the U.S. government should be allowed to get away with raping our sisters, friends, mothers, aunts, daughters, etc.
| Alexander (R-TN) Barrasso (R-WY) Bond (R-MO) Brownback (R-KS) Bunning (R-KY) Burr (R-NC) Chambliss (R-GA) Coburn (R-OK) Cochran (R-MS) Corker (R-TN) | Cornyn (R-TX) Crapo (R-ID) DeMint (R-SC) Ensign (R-NV) Enzi (R-WY) Graham (R-SC) Gregg (R-NH) Inhofe (R-OK) Isakson (R-GA) Johanns (R-NE) | Kyl (R-AZ) McCain (R-AZ) McConnell (R-KY) Risch (R-ID) Roberts (R-KS) Sessions (R-AL) Shelby (R-AL) Thune (R-SD) Vitter (R-LA) Wicker (R-MS) |
Al Franken recently introduced a defense bill "amendment [that] calls for withholding defense contracts from companies like KBR (a former Halliburton subsidiary) if they restrict their employees from taking workplace sexual assault, battery and discrimination cases to court." Read the article.
The amendment was inspired by Jamie Leigh Jones who was gang raped by her fellow KBR (a Halliburton [headed fomerly by Dick Cheney] subsidiary) employees and locked in a container for 24 hours.
The 30 above senators voted against it, basically stating that the U.S. should protect rapist corporations from litigation, thus making the illegal legal. These senators are stating that corporations hired by the occupational government of the U.S. should be allowed to commit rape as often as they enjoy doing so.
Whaddya say, men? Do you think it is OK for corporations to rape your mothers, sisters, wives, lovers, friends, etc., like these 30 senators do?
