Rape-Nuts - Al Franken proposes getting rid of the old "it's OK if you get raped" clause in government contracts, but 30 Republicans object. REPEAT: 30 REPUBLICANS VOTED AGAINST THIS RAPE BILL TO DEFUND COMPANIES THAT MAKE THEIR EMPLOYEES SIGN A WAIVER AGAINST SUING IF YOU'RE GANG-RAPED BY FELLOW EMPLOYEES (KBR in particular)...but they voted to defund ACORN!

In 2005, Jamie Leigh Jones was gang-raped by her co-workers while she was working for Halliburton/KBR in Baghdad. She was detained in a shipping container for at least 24 hours without food, water, or a bed, and “warned her that if she left Iraq for medical treatment, she’d be out of a job.”
Court rules that KBR employee’s gang rape wasn’t a personal injury ‘arising in the workplace.’
Here's more about KBR, keep in mind how quickly congress defunded ACORN based on a video of two kooks dressed as a pimp and a prostitute:
