Senator Al Franken introduced a bill that would allow people (women) to sue their employers if they are raped on the job. The bill came as a response to a female (Jaimie Lee Jones) who was drugged and gang raped while on the job. She wanted to sue but was told there was an arbitration clause in her contract that said she was not allowed to sue the company if she was raped. Imagine that. Al Franken introduced the bill (or an amendment to) so people like Ms Jones would be allowed to sue, but guess what? The Republicans came out in full force against it. In fact every single nay vote came from a Republican. Nice! It's also interesting to note that John (Bomb Bomb Iran) McCain is also listed among those who voted to support the gang rape of women like Jaime Lee Jones. Also, see THIS VIDEO just so you will have a better understanding of how sick the republican party really is. And here is the complete list of Republicans who voted to allow the continued rape of women without allowing them the right to sue their employer. 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)

"If someone is truly a jerk, or truly is not deserving of any positive reply from you, polite indifference is the best response you can give. Do not insult. Do not slam. Do not follow the urge to be nasty. Simply be politely indifferent." –Brian Austin Whitney
