ORIGINAL: MarsBonfire Well, I certainly hope some of you folks reading this thread are seeing what I'm seeing. The republican supporters change the subject to "the wording of the bill," (picking on poor, poor, defenseless Halliburton, we are!) and completely avoiding the fact that 30 GOP senators voted against ending extending the arbitarion clause in government contrators hiring practices, to include obviously criminal activity. They even stand behind the faceless corperations in cases of gang rape, false imprisonment, and (probably) murder. What's next? Will Halliburton and KNB employees be given free reign to rape 12 year old girls next? Good spin. Not sure why those human wastes did not vote for the bill. What I am saying is that if you want a bill passed without problems, do not put political landmines in them. Both sides have some responsibility here, the ones that did not vote for it, and the ones that purposefully included some worded in the purpose, that they knew would trigger some problems. quote:
Please make a note of who here wanted to play word games, and who saw the subject for what it really was: the subversion of victims' legal rights under the Constitution via a shell game known as arbitration. (Which is great, if you have a workman's Comp claim, or a failure to pay what is owed or some other Civil claim.) What kind of twisted philosophy would lead someone to support such a degradation of women as second class citizens? I ask you... seriously. I am a little slow, could you make those notes here and post them? I just find it funny that when I want to insult someone, I do it directly, but the mods get onto me for it. Others do it in a deceptively, passive-aggressive way, and they get away with it. Let's see honesty or deception is rewarded? Mars, we know where much of your bias and hatred is, and that stuff is going to eventually eat you up inside. So who exactly here is against this bill again? Could you show me where? Put up or shut up, time to show how much integrity you have. Nicely said, Orion. I've read through the thread from where I left off and I see it is the same ole, same ole...if you are against the wording of the bill, then you must be in support of rape. Tazzy brings on postings from two obviously liberal blogs written not by "impartial" reporters but by biased commentators and we are to take their spin as true, Mars comes up with his usual inflammatory statements that have only the slightest touch with reality...yet when I see a direct challenge to rulemylife, he does the usual..."why don't you answer my question" bit instead of answering the challenge put to him...in other words, his question is ever so much more important thant the credible challenge raised to him. I've yet to see one conservative on here ...including myself...speak out in defense of rape. I've yet to see one conservative on here come out and say that what happened to this girl...within her company or within her round of court appearances...was deserved or right. I HAVE seen conservatives on here state that it was wrong for a politician to single out one company in a self-serving, grandiose attempt to embarass a corporate entity that in any way profits from war rather than just write out a proposed piece of legislation that not only would have dealt with Halliburton's "arbitration" tactics that allowed them to skirt the law but would have dealt with ANY company's attempts to sidestep the issue. The proof that he knew what he was doing? Look at the fall-out from daring to stand against the bill as written even while being supportive of the intent behind the bill.
