As South DaCola reported last week (yet the SD MSM did not say a peep about it) Thune voted against rape protections for federally funded private contractors. But it gets better, a blogger from http://www.thecrookeddope.com/ tracked his ass down and asked him why he voted against the amendment, his response;
Thune said that he might have supported the amendment if it had been narrowed to cover rape (only) rather then extended to cover other sexual-related abuses.
WTF!? So in your book John, rape is bad but not other sex crimes? Not only are you a jackass, but that is one of the biggest bullshit excuses I have heard from you in a long, long time. You truly embarrass our state.
