Countdown: Republicans who voted against Franken anti-rape amendment whine that vote is being held against them.

The Republicans who voted against the Al Franken rape amendment are furious... with Al Franken.

Franken passed an amendment that was attached to a defense bill that would withhold government contracts from companies that refused to let employees bring rape cases before the courts. It should be tough voting against rape, but thirty Republicans did just that and now they are whining the night away because bloggers and some MSMers have highlighted their atrocity. And in their usual silly reality, they are blaming Sen. Al Franken because they are getting hammered over their malfeasance.

I presume that they are so programmed to vote for corporatism that they made this vote without giving any thought as to the consequence of such an action.
