    Qualifications?

    Rape, murder, arson, and rape.

    You said rape twice.

    I like rape.

    How about you just make sure your employees don't go off and rape/imprison their co-workers and the employer doesn't even have to worry about this.
    I suppose that's too much to ask.
    The number of no-bid contract jobs lost is just too much for Wild Cobra's taste.

    Other people read this thread, enlighten them. Explain in detail why this particular admendment is so harmful.
    1.It shouldn't be snuck into a defense bill for starters.
    2.The Courts ruled it diddn't have to stay in arbitration. This is Franken's way of getting some credibility.
    3. It takes away the responsibility of the individual. No one is made to work for a co. who makes you sign an arbitration contract.
    4. This penalizes big corporations who use arbitration
    5. Why not include this in the Arbitration Fairness Act (S. 1782, H.R. 3010) where it can be debated?

    It wasn't "snuck" in...it was voted on.
    2.The Courts ruled it diddn't have to stay in arbitration. This is Franken's way of getting some credibility.
    And Halliburton has appealed the ruling. And what does Franken's "credibility" have to do with anything? Oh, yeah...you're a conservative, and as such are required to mindlessly oppose anything a Democrat says or does.
    3. It takes away the responsibility of the individual. No one is made to work for a co. who makes you sign an arbitration contract.
    Yes, foolish 19 year old girl...she should have known going in that she couldn't sue for the rape, assault and imprisonment that awaited her.
    4. This penalizes big corporations who use arbitration
    No, it penalizes corporations under contract with the U.S. Government who use arbitration to dodge accountability in case of assault and rape. All...one of them (Halliburton).
    5. Why not include this in the Arbitration Fairness Act (S. 1782, H.R. 3010) where it can be debated?
    Because this doesn't affect corporations' right to use arbitration, only whether they are eligible to recieve U.S. Funds based on their arbitration policy.

    That's OK, Pixil, Clambake, et al would throw out the baby with the bath water.

    They are fine with making bad law if it does just one good thing.

    in a defense budget bill.

    And Halliburton has appealed the ruling. And what does Franken's "credibility" have to do with anything? Oh, yeah...you're a conservative, and as such are required to mindlessly oppose anything a Democrat says or does.
    So what Halliburton is appealing it. Does that mean you are for tort reform? Franken is a JR senator and needs something to show for getting elected.
    Yes, foolish 19 year old girl...she should have known going in that she couldn't sue for the rape, assault and imprisonment that awaited her.
    It would be worse if a foolish 19 yr old thinking the govt. is going to protect her. People need to make an honest assessment that do they want the ability to sue or are they comfortable with an arbitration hearing. Arbitration aren't the big boogie man thatyou libs want them to be, like the Tobacco, insurance, soda companies, auto co. and defense co. keeping out of the courts helps both parties.

    Because this doesn't affect corporations' right to use arbitration, only whether they are eligible to recieve U.S. Funds based on their arbitration policy.
    This doesn't effect our defense either. So why is it snuck in a defense appropriations bill?

    That's Ok, Wild Cobra, spursncowboys would throw rape victims under the bus.

    They are fine with it as long as one government contracted corporation doesn't have to pay for it's crimes.

    YOu are the one thinking justice for a rape victim is an amendment that takes away govt. money. Way to show intelligence and class.

    You and WC are more offended that a laywer might make a buck and a corporation might lose out on cherry, no-bid government contract than that a rape victim gets her day in court. Way to show some ing humanity.

    Consider carefully the impact of part (b). All a corporation has to do that contracts for the DoD is sub-contract with companies of other nationalities, which shields them from this law. Do you really think this wont push them to do just that?
    Where is your outrage at the company who would hypothetically do this?

    them, we can give our millions of dollars to a different company who will use American workers and afford them the reasonable right to seek justice in cases of assault and rape.

    People will line up. There is a lot of money at stake.

    I wasn't a Bush cheerleader.

    Pixelpusher-where does no-bid contracts come into this? I am against that. Unlike you BHO cheerleaders, I have an idea I didn't pick up from a MSNBC talking head. Obama and the dems do it too. No bid is one of the most corrupt govt. problems, next to unions.

    I'm about done arguing with these fools. They immediately jumnp to opinions, offer nothing vredible against our arguments.

    Notice how they keep going to the same points we agree with, and act as if we don't?

    They are not intelligent enough to counter the good points we have, and resort to changing the argument, or name-calling.
