Hillary Clinton Calls for Investigation Into Gang-Rape Allegations
December 12, 2007 1:45 PM
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., is calling for a formal government investigation into allegations that a young female American contractor was gang-raped in Iraq and then held incommunicado in a large shipping container by her American employer, KBR, then a subsidiary of Halliburton.
"These claims must be taken seriously and the U.S. government must act immediately to investigate Ms. Jones' claims," Sen. Clinton wrote in a letter today to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and Attorney General Michael Mukasey.

Yes, these allegations need to be reviewed fully. Hillary Clinton is not the person to expouse anything about illicit sexual relations though. Hillary has no credibility given how she tolerated Bill, Monica, and Bill's other sexual behaviour against her. Hillary - you could have had Bill sleep in a tent on the lawn of the White House with the dog for a while, and we would have got the message of a spec of credibility from you.

There is a huge difference between consensual sex and rape.

How about an investigation (a real one) into Hillary Rs illegal campaign contributions she is receiving now, and in the past.
When anything negative rears it's ugly head in Hillary 's
campaign, she always claims that she was unaware of anything. If she is not aware on misdeeds in her own campaign, how in the world can we expect her to be aware of anything as leader of the most powerful country in the world. Why doesn't her vast 35 years of experience allow her to say anything other than "duhh, golly gee whiz I wasn't aware of that"? Her standard reply that has been uttered many many times now. Seems to me that Slick Willary is following in her lying husband Slick Willy's footsteps. That is the experience she has in politics; and that is why she won't release any records of her past.
Look right into the camera Hillery and tell America you were not aware of it; just like your lying (under oath) hubby did when asked about Monica.
Oh, and Hillary, when you lose this election, please return all the items you looted from the White House when you moved out.

We're focusing on rape which is violsting a woman's rights as a person and as a citizen of the US. No MAN , I repeat NO MAN has the right to rape a woman. It is not a God or god given right to rapre a woman and gang rape and posible tortue of a woman is a crime worst than any crime on this earth. A woman is sensitive and emotionally and spiritually and mentally and physically affected by rape and in the case of this woman I hold the Government of the US responsible especially President Bush-the Commander in Chief and Vice president Cheney. Hasn't Halliburton screwed up a lot of things literally already?

If Bush and Cheney do not take action; let alone too late for (swift/action)against the men that Gang Raped and Terrorised this Woman, Then Bush and Cheney are Condoning the action. Rape is not acceptable in any form. These men are nothing more than Cowards, violent criminals and that includes the rapist's too.

I feel sorry for this girl, but as for Hillary commenting...Please. Can anyone say "Juanita Broderick" or "Paula Jones"? I don't think that was consensual, Kate.

"These claims must be taken seriously and the U.S. government must act immediately to investigate Ms. Jones' claims," Sen. Clinton wrote...
Did she mean Paula?

This company has NO concern for ANY of it's employees. They don't care if ANY of their people are killed, raped, M.I.A., paid,etc.
They are there for the money.
Watch your back thou, they will find away to get each and everyone of you too.
The ambush that killed my brother Keven Dagit meant NOTHING to them. Keven was just a number. It's the same with this young lady too. God help us all.....

Oh, c'mon, it's only been two years! I'm sure that KBR is on top of this, and will hand over the evidence that they have. Oh, wait, they lost it.
I'm sure that the law and order Republicans will take care of this any day now.
