[ovrtaxt]

A Houston, Texas woman says she was gang-raped by Halliburton/KBR coworkers in Baghdad, and the company and the U.S. government are covering up the incident.

[dmz]

Well, she might still be a professional. The oldest profession. I’ll bet it was totally consensual until the girl decided she’d had too many tips for her tip to be so small.

That’s right. All attractive women in Iraq are whores. Oh why bother with the geographical component. All women are whores. /contemptuous sarcasm

BTW, seek counseling.

Was the shipping container air conditioned?

[Hacklehead]

“Jones told ABCNews.com that an examination by Army doctors showed she had been raped “both vaginally and anally,” but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to Halliburton.”

This story smells. The alleged rape occured only 4 days after she arrived in Iraq. The rape kit disappeared, was found, but the photos and Dr’s notes were gone. The Dr should be able to fill in the blanks on the report.

[RDTF]

ya gotta give her the benefit of the doubt unless proven otherwise. And if it did happen, it’s really unthinkable and inexcusable.

[Hemingway's Ghost]

I wouldn't put it past some of the big corporations to employ such professionals as an "on the job" perk to the real risk takers.

Yeah, right. Good-looking, young---guess she's a whore!

Wow, if only everything were as simple.

[GOP Poet]

Well ya that too of course (I see this as a given though)

[dmz]

Yes, but unlike the Nifong story, this one has a GOP congressmen asking questions.

[inkling]

ya gotta give her the benefit of the doubt unless proven otherwise. And if it did happen, it’s really unthinkable and inexcusable.

No, you have to give the accused the benefit of the doubt. Did the Duke Lacrosse case prove nothing to us?

[La Enchiladita]

Okay, it says that Army doctors examined her and then handed evidence over to KBR security? HUH?

THAT doesn’t add up. Even if the evidence mysteriously disappeared, the doctors in question could be interviewed again.

I looked carefully through the article and could see no mention of what the lady’s job was over there. That is poor writing that doesn’t provide those facts. In what capacity was she working there?

[MaestroLC]

And of course, she immediately goes on 20/20 and the propaganda media to tell her story. I'm suspicious of her motives.

But it won't matter what the truth is, the story is already been written by the media: Texas, Iraq, gang-rape, cover-up, Halliburton.

I'm tired of my country being slimed by the usual crowd with the usual agenda.

[sticker]

This reeks, it happened two years ago and the media is just now publicizing it? The MSM would have screamed about this story then

[MaestroLC]

ya gotta give her the benefit of the doubt unless proven otherwise

Why? She is going to the media. That reeks of agenda to me. Read the headline: Gang-Rape Cover-Up by U.S.

That's giving the benefit of the doubt to whom?

[Steve_Seattle]

"I looked carefully through the article and could see no mention of what the lady’s job was over there."

I believe she was doing some kind of IT/computing work, based on what her website said.

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

And of course, she immediately goes on 20/20 and the propaganda media to tell her story.

According to the story, it happened over two years ago. How long would you say she should have waited?

[jrg]

Clinton: I got it. I got it.
Burnin' Jordan: You do?
Clinton: We'll work up a "Number 6" on 'em.
Burnin' Jordan: "Number 6"? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that one...
Clinton: Well, that's where we go a-ridin' into town, a whampin' and whompin' every livin' thing that moves within an inch of its life. Except the women folks, of course.
Burnin' Jordan: You spare the women?
Clinton: NAW. We rape the shit out of them at the Number 6 Dance later on.
Burnin' Jordan: Marvelous.

[Hacklehead]

“I’m suspicious of her motives.”

August 18-2007- I optioned my story to be written for a screenplay. The screenplay is currently in development and is being written by Tom Whitus.

How many rape victims set up a very professional looking “foundation” that includes a Marketing Director?

[RDTF]

you’re kidding, right? I don’t care what the headline reads.

[spunkets]

[La Enchiladita]

It’s all in the timing.

Gosh, now in addition to the sources listed in my tagline, we also believe ABC News around here.

FReepers are slipping down the slippery slope...

[Hacklehead]

“THAT doesn’t add up. Even if the evidence mysteriously disappeared, the doctors in question could be interviewed again.”

I thought the same thing. According to her account, there are so many rapes of women by the contractors, and so many rape kits used, that the doctor doesn’t remember the particulars of her case.
