re: #130 ludwigvanquixote

Given the actions of the GOP of late - you know like protecting Haliburton’s right to rape it’s employees… Remember that… Every GOP senator voting to a man to prevent a bill that would prohibit the US from contracting with companies that would deny raped women their day in court?

I have a few questions about this.

How does a corporation rape someone?

Who granted Halliburton employees immunity from rape laws?

Wasn’t the vote on Franken’s bill 68-30? Why do you say every GOP Senator “to a man”
voted against it?

Has the actual employment contract language made it to public light?

I haven’t seen any Haliburton employment contracts, but since I’m a rational person, I’ll go out on a limb and believe that it has no clause which would prevent an employee from pursuing a rape charge against a fellow employee. Such a clause would be unenforceable anyway.

There is an issue here which you can use to criticize GOP politicians, but you can’t quite seem to get past nutty hyperbole.
