| Republicans Sicken ME!! |
sigh, Many of you may have heard about the case with the company Kellog, Brown and Root (KBR), which was a subsidiary company of Haliburton (oil company), which Dick Cheney was once chairman of, in other words, oil and Cheney = EVIL!.
Anyway, KBR is hired by the US government to do contracting in Iraq and other places. They are basically war profiteers (no surprise with Cheney). A 19 year old woman back in 2004 was gangraped and imprisoned by some co workers while in Iraq. KBR forbid this woman from suing them according to their contract that doesn't allow her to go to court, only the company "arbitration".
Sen. Al Franken proposed an amendment that would stop these kinds of contracts from being allowed. In other words, the amendment is for letting employees go to court when this shit happens. Lucklily it passed, but 30 republicans Voter AGAINST IT!! yes, against it. they were the only no-voters.
I'm not a fan of Democrats, i think they're total pussies, but i absolutely loathe republicans. and hearing this, i've just about had it with them.
