How Palin screwed the victims of rape (re-revisited)

By Michael J.W. Stickings

CNN is late getting to this story, but, well, better late than never: "Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's hometown required women to pay for their own rape examinations while she was mayor, a practice her police chief fought to keep as late as 2000."

Palin and her cheerleaders, including McCain, want us to take her "executive experience" seriously. But just look at the record -- look at what she did in Wasilla and what's she's done in Juneau. And that includes this, requiring rape victims to pay for their own rape kits.

Many of us were writing about this two weeks ago. For my posts on the story, including links to what others were posting, see here and here.

  • I wish Joe Biden would bring up charging the victim for rape kits when he debates Sweet Sarah, but it won't. Speaking of screwing the victims, this morning Americans can watch porn in their pajamas, and the largest orgy ever shown on live television, by watching the bailout hearings and see 300 million Americans getting screwed.
