Blog - Amplify your voice

A while back, I blogged about the shocking and disturbing story presented by Senator Al Franken regarding 2007 revelation that nineteen-year-old Jamie Leigh Jones had been gang-raped by co-workers while working for Halliburton/KBR in Iraq!

Still sends chills!

According to Change.org, "The thirty white, male Senators who voted against the measure immediately become targets of (fury-fueled) mockery from sources like The Daily Show and the website RepublicansforRape.org."

I think that John Stewart of the Daily Show does a great job putting emphasize on the important topic that republicans don't seem to grasp!

"If, to protect Haliburton, you have to side against rape victims, you might want to rethink your allegiance." -John Stewart-
