Still no comment?

Can someone get a list of Senators who voted to
against this measure to force companies to stop
creating contracts that allow for women to be raped
with no legal recourse?

I'm wondering if there isn't more to this. Mc Cain
wouldn't vote for anything this bad ... if it's as bad
as it seems, imo.

"The Franken amendment doesn't rewrite abitration contracts. It simply says
the federal government will not do business with corporations that use
arbitration to restrict employees from taking sexual assault cases to court.

It says more than that. It's not just limited to sexual assault. "Rape" is
the emotional hook used here, but there is more to it. Not arguing YAY or
NAY, but suggesting that it's not as simple as people are making it out to
be."

OK, I'll respond.

You seem to specialize in putting non golf related garbage here. If it
isn't health care it's gang rape or derivitaves or some other crap.

TAKE A VACATION!!!

Ok, I'll take a vacation, but I already
live in Vegas and I'm retired. Anyway,
Do you click on political threads on
purpose? So, don't.

I'd like to see some more women on Big Break.
The women's tour needs some support.

Not wanting to be outdone by the Republicans
who voted (unsucessfully) to allow companies
to create contracts where women give up their
right to sue in case of rape ...

the Democratic adminsitration argued against
lawsuits being legal against prosecutors who
manufacture evidence. This is not a case about
whether prosecutors should be criminally charged
but whether they should be subject to criminal
charges.

I need a vacation to a democratic country.
