Last week, Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) said on CNN that he did not believe that gang rape in Iraq of former Halliburton/KBR employee Jamie Leigh Jones was “an isolated case of assault.” Poe then encouraged “other victims” to notify his office.
In his prepared testimony for the House Judiciary Committee today, Poe said that his office had been contacted by three women other than Ms. Jones about sexual assaults they sustained while working for KBR in Iraq:
Since Jamie has gone public with her experience, my office has heard from 3 other women. Of course, my office will furnish the names of these women to the Judiciary Committee if needed.

These men are given the green light to murder woman and children so what's a little sexual assault on an American woman. This is the Republican Party's choice and these are what Republican Christian values mean in America. Notice how Rev. Huck said woman must be submissive to their husbands and King Mitt knows all woman must be submissive to men as it was written in the bible.
