Ablogination

Once upon a time, a naive young girl went to work for a company called Halliburton. They sent her to Iraq. There, she was drugged and raped by her co-workers.

Recently, legislation was introduced to help such victims have legal recourse against the corporations that refuse to recognize the problem and take action.
The legislation, by Sen. Al Franken, passed. However, thirty Republicans voted against that legislation.
One of them was Lamar Alexander, our local Senator from Blountville.

First, were this young lady any less naive we might not even write about it. We have no sympathy for blood money contractors or any other kind of mercenary who sought to profit off the failed, illegal war in Iraq.
This young girl states that she “was serving her country". She wasn’t. Mercenaries do not “serve". They don’t know the meaning of the word.
This issue goes far beyond the individual involved.
This issue is about keeping young men and women who make the mistake of choosing to be employed by lawless, Godless corporations, safe from exploitation and physical abuse.

They didn’t send this young woman to Iraq to be a part of some whimsical, fantasy laden, pie-in-the-sky battle against all evil. They sent her there to be someone’s whore.
They sent her for the purpose of being raped. Some sort of abominable gift to certain contractors there. A sex slave.
Were it not for the compassion of one of her captors, she would not be alive today.

The video below explains it all in detail. A great injustice has been committed against the standards of decency that civilization requires that we all live by in order to survive.
Again, the legislation intended to help such victims passed. But those who voted on behalf of rape and against a young victim will not be permitted to just walk away.

The list of filth who voted in favor of rape reads like a who’s who of Right Wing sub-humanoid servants of the flesh…

From adulterers like John Ensign to effeminate powder puffs like Lindsey Graham and Ensign’s fellow “C” Street Members Brownback and Coburn,
every one of these Senators, including our own Lamar Alexander, has placed their stamp of approval on the corporate sex slave trade.

Who knows how many other young women, and men, have been held against their will as sex slaves for corporations they worked for? Perhaps too afraid to come forward.
This is a problem that, thanx to Sen. Franken, may now be given the full attention of the Justice Dept. Let’s hope so.
Because this shit is disgusting and cannot be tolerated.

Lamar Alexander, you approved of rape to please your corporate masters. You are the textbook definition of a coward.
