Republicans think workplace RAPE is OKAY.

[zoombwaz]

The creep has always been a foul-mouthed, I know everything, you know nothing bastard.

If you pinheads could read for content, you would know that i made no claim as to the exact wording of her contract, but was commenting on the effect of that contract, which was to deny her the right to sue for redress of her suffering.

Nor have I ever claimed to know everything. However, you got me on the last...I have repeatedly claimed that you know nothing.

And you have shown repeatedly hat my assessment of the level of your ignorance was in fact an accurate one.

I don't care what those dambasses are fucking claiming, you stupid asswipe.
I see that you've returned to making lengthy posts, in an attempt to cover your lack of congnitive reasoning.

The title to this thread was a lie, the courts have already ruled that she does have the right to bring suit, and all of the rest of the liberal shit that's been posted about this wasn't worth the pixels it took to display it. Kind of like the pile of steaming crap, that you just created.

Speaking of brains.
Did you finally get the few you have left, stimulated??
But; you the man.

amazing how many times you ignore this question:

did she not get justice through arbitration? yes or no?

It appears she never went through arbitration so the answer is no.

Here's a link. What say you about the arbitration process?

"Heather Browne, director of communications at KBR, says that while the company can't speak to the facts since the case is ongoing, it denies any liability in the attack. And she argues that any dispute with Jones, even one involving charges of rape, must go to arbitration...

So Jones is now going to court seeking the right to sue. She has become one of the nation's leading arbitration reform advocates...

...Arbitration is a closed, private process, often with little or no written record. But one state, California, changed its law to require that arbitration results be publicly recorded. Public Citizen staff reviewed 34,000 California cases, and Arkush says the results speak volumes.

"Overall, consumers lost 94 percent of the time," he says...

How abouit because it targeted ONE company and it's affiliates.
Why didn't he make it cover all contractors??

WAY TO GO, ZIPPY

It does...

Got this from Yurt himself:

AMENDMENT PURPOSE:
"To prohibit the use of funds for any Federal contract with Halliburton Company, KBR, Inc., any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, or any other contracting party if such contractor or a subcontractor at any tier under such contract requires that employees or independent contractors sign mandatory arbitration clauses regarding certain claims."

It sure reads like they're trying to cover other contractors besides KBR.

Of course I don't expect you to admit you made a mistake, that's just something you don't do.

But by all means call me some more demeaning names, it's something you do so well.

They tried to claissify it as a "work related injury".
They lost and the case has been given the go-ahead, for it to be tried.
And of course this proves that Republicans think it's OK to be raped in the work place.

Then why have the complany named at all??
Unless your a attention seeking media hound, who would take the liberal approach to get attention.

What's that you say?

I was right and you were wr...wr...wr...wro...wron...

You just can't say it can you?

 

[Canceled1]

That's right, do anything but address the issue that every nay vote was from a republican. A woman was gang raped and the GOP, at least a majority of them in the Senate, think that KBR should be shielded from suit.

It's the same line that is hurled day in and day out if someone from the right reports on something, they are automatically wrong. The Karl Rove piece being the perfect example.

There is nothing in this universe that makes gang rape right, defensible, or palatable. It is wrong.

My attempt at holding up the same mirror that is wielded daily by the libs against the repubs was however effective.

It got you to say what I think when I see the same.

Irony at its finest.

Yup, same old zoomie, still doesn't suffer fools gladly, and you are still the fools I won't waste my time on. Didn't you cretins learn ANYTHING from the consecutive electoral ass-whuppins you took at the hands of the same Democratic Party whose imminent demise you had been smugly predicting since Bush stole his first presidential election? Like maybe...oh, I don't know...that you don't know what the hell you're talking about on foreign policy, domestic policy, economics, science, politics, the Constitution, and a host of other topics, and that perhaps your wisest move (and I really hesitated about using that word in any connection with you twits) might just be to pay attention to those of us who know whereof we speakm, and until such time as you have attained a modicum of knowledge, you should probably STFU (unless of course you enjoy looking like jackasses and/or deinstitutionalized mental patients).

You just can't say it can you?

And once again, you completely ignore the FACT that you are just once again blowing smoke.

I said you were wrong and you still are; but you're just not adult enough to admit it.

actually, he is flat out lying....he got shown it by using his logic and by the facts....yet he still denies it and falsely claims republicans think workplace rape is okay

The fact is you tried to claim the amendment only applied to one contractor, and I proved you wrong.

That is your quote above, right?

Bottome line is you're too big a coward to admit as much and that just made my weekend!

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

This, coming from you, is absolutely amusing.
You post a thread, that is a lie, then you're to cowardly to admit you lied, and now you mount your hypocritical high horse and try to pass a moral judgement on someone else.

Good job, zippy. Good job

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Making a false accusation makes your weekend? You need to get a life.

Well knock me down with a feather, I never would ahve guessed...

In 2005, Jamie Leigh Jones was gang-raped by her Halliburton/KBR co-workers while working in Iraq and locked in a shipping container for over a day to prevent her from reporting her attack. The rape occurred outside of U.S. criminal jurisdiction, but to add serious insult to serious injury she was not allowed to sue KBR because her employment contract said that sexual assault allegations would only be heard in private arbitration--a process that overwhelmingly favors corporations.

This year, Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) proposed an amendment that would deny defense contracts to companies that ask employees to sign away the right to sue. It passed, but it wasn't the slam dunk Jon Stewart expected. Instead the amendment received 30 nay votes all from Republicans. "I understand we're a divided country, some disagreements on health care. How is ANYONE against this?" He asked.

He went on to show video of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) arguing that it's not the government's place to decide who the government does business with and juxtaposed that with Republican sentiment on how the government should deal with ACORN. "I guess it's an efficiency thing. You don't want to waste tax-payer money giving it to someone who advises fake prostitutes how to commit imaginary crimes, you want to give it to Halliburton because they're committing real gang rape."

That's odd. Why is everyone who voted for rape, a republican male?

Even the republican women had sense enough to join the democrats on this vote.

 

[Cancel 2018. 3]

cypress is nothing but a liar....he has been shown how they didn't vote for rape....ran away from such arguments and now cowardly tries to sneak this in.....

come on syphlis.......you can do better.....

lol......you claim WE look like deinstitutionalized mental patients in the same paragraph you claim Bush stole the election?.......that sounds like the pot calling the kettle schizophrenic........

 

[Cypress]

cypress is nothing but a liar!!!!....he has been shown how they didn't vote for rape....ran away from such arguments and now cowardly tries to sneak this in.....Cypress has a responsible and demanding job, and can't spend hours scrolling through threads and wondering what Spurt is writing.

come on syphlis.......you can do better.....

Jesus Christ. Calm down emo girl. Midol perhaps?

Nobody in their right mind literally thinks most republican men are in favor of rape. Maybe only 40% are in favor of it.

If you are unable to recognize hyperbole and good old fashioned low brow fucking around, it’s not my job to hip you, or to tip toe around your delicate, girlish sensibilities. So this is the last time I’m going to address your school boy whining.

I think Franken probably really cares about this, but the military industrial complex, the corporatists, and the pentagon broadly speaking don’t give a fuck, in any real and substantive way, about what happens to women contractors, Iraqi civilians, or enlisted soldiers. Get this through your Neocon head: we’ve spent the last 8 years torturing Arabs, treating our enlisted soldiers as cannon fodder for Neocon wet dreams, and unleashing death and carnage on millions of people who never attacked or wanted to attack the United States. Do you think the rape of women contractors is really going to be a top priority for the Pentagon or this Government?

 

[PostmodernProphet]

lol....come on....this is just another example of how the Democrats supply party members with bills they can "sponsor" to build up their reputations.....they needed to do something to overcome the embarrassment of having him seated in congress with a D next to his name along with all the real politicians.....they did the same with Obama.....

If it wasn't so sad, it would be comical!

"You LIED" he belches forth with all the gravitas he can muster. When he does it, it's "hyperbole", when I do it, it's "lying".

Convenient, isn't it?

Watching Yurt's histrionics as he attempts to prove I "lied" has provided DAYS of fun and enjoyment. And his incessant taunts and name calling only proves how weak his argument must be.
