First the sluts tried not to die from cervical cancer, but South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley had a national reputation to tend to, so she vetoed voluntary HPV inoculations for teen girls. But what have the sluts done this time? Well, they went and got themselves raped.
According to the governor, state funding for rape victims “attempts to serve a portion of our population for which we extend our sympathy and encouragement, but nevertheless, it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused.” Haley said the $453,000 designated for the South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault’s rape crisis centers “distract[s] from the agency’s broader mission of protecting South Carolina’s public health.”
Now those are some conservative credentials! We salute you, Governor Haley — or should we say “Future Vice President Haley,” amirite???
So how is the War on Women going in South Carolina, Palmetto Public Record?
[T]he State Law Enforcement Division reports that South Carolina’s rape rate has exceeded the national rate every year since 1982. Jacobs said the coalition’s 15 sexual assault programs in South Carolina helped over 5,000 victims in 2011 — over half of which were children — and emergency hotline workers answered over 7,000 calls, SCCADVASA’s programs also provide prevention education to over 50,000 South Carolina students, which Jacobs said helps prevent sexual violence before it occurs.
“If this veto is not overridden, rape crisis centers will lose 37% of their current state funding, which will drastically reduce their ability to respond to victims and provide prevention education,” said Jacobs.
Well, we guess the War on Women is going smashingly then! Good job, SC. You are now a Brigadier General.

Is Nikki Haley really that stupid and cruel? I think we're seeing that there is no depth to which she won't sink.
No kidding. Where is Aileen Wornos when you need her. Oh, wait. She dead.
Yep, she really is the whole package isn't she?
What's next? She will announce that women that weren't wearing ankle length skirts and modest tops were "asking for it" ??? Perhaps the rape victims were in fact witches, that used spells that "forced" the men to rape them. Yeah that's the ticket.
Emphasis on the cruel. It's considered a desirable quality in Republican circles, for reasons I cannot even begin to understand.
American Taliban, coming to a state near you.
American Taliban, probably already all around you, especially if you live in the South.
A gutsy call (even for a republican). She isn't pro-rape, she just doesn't want to help women who have been. What's that they say about Karma?*
* With votes.
it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused
Yes, rape is an illness! You heard it from a woman, too!
So next time your daughter or girlfriend is raped, just remind her that it will pass with a little penicillin and some hot chicken soup.
Why isn't Obama dedicating money to research into the rape vaccine?
It's all that Big Pharma money.
Chicken Soup for the Sodomized Soul.
Rape victims will just have to pay for their medical treatment with chickens.
Feed a chicken, fuck a duck.
That's how you get duck pox.
And stay away from hogs or you'll get hogwarts and end up in Potter's field.
I thought you got down off a duck?
Keep rapin' that chicken.
The chicken was asking for it because she wasn't wearing enough dressing.
Hey! She asked to be stuffed!
"Haley said the $453,000 designated for the South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault’s rape crisis centers “distract[s] from the agency’s broader mission of protecting South Carolina’s public health.”
And that mission, like all missions, can best be served by giving all of the money to billionaires.
True. Because those Kochs can't suck themselves.
Oh, wait.
Also, by defunding social services, they become penniless, therefore ineffective, thus proving the point that these programs "just don't work".
It's a win-win!
"It's a great day to be raped in South Carolina, how may I help you?"
Is there some sort of lobby to protect South Carolina's proud history of rape?
It's called the Men's Rights Movement.
Yes, it's called the South Carolina Republican Party. They have their own flag, a standard called the "Stars and Bars," which I take to mean celebrities at drinking establishments.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans.
Conservatives on Rape "it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused."
Conservatives on Vote Fraud "OMG SOCIALISM ALINSKY WE MUST PREVENT THIS MASSIVE PROBLEM"
Sounds about right to me.
Airplane (or was it Airplane II) said it best: "They're all asking for it. All the time."
You're thinking of Newt Gingrich.
You're thinking of Sarah Palin (talking about her breeding stock),
You're thinking of Jerry Sandusky.
It's obvious that you elitists don't understand that it's "Heritage, Not Hate!"
It's not the hate, it's the stupidity.
Why not both?
Sounds like what they need is a pedophile crisis center if half their rape victims are children. Elastrators can be bought by the boxful for next to nothing. And if the abuser is a woman, well there's always dowsing and stoning and burning at the stake.
Nikki is one of those women who will do anything to be accepted by the boys, isn't she? Pathetic pig.
What the fuck is with this cunt. Isn't there somthing you women can do with her? I don't know, like revoke her girlness or somthing?
It's so hard to achieve a status worse than a rapist but she's getting really close.
We can only do that once a generation and we already used this one on Ann Coulter.
It definitely works. Too bad you can't do it more often.
There's some question as to whether she IS a girl, a woman, a female. She has the same manjaw Sarah Palin and Ann Coulter do.
How is this shit not front page news throughout the country and the world? Really. It can't just be liberals who see the evil in these attitudes. As a society, we passed the era of judges who wanted to know victims' skirt lengths long ago and that it's time to whatever I can't put up with this shit anymore.
"we passed the era of judges who wanted to know victims' skirt lengths long ago"
Nope. Guess again.
they were clearly asking for it. And by "it," I mean crisis response services.
That photo makes me want to go shoot Reagan.
Makes me want to go play some pinball.
Every photo makes me want to go shoot Reagan. (I can say that, right? 'Cause of him being a zombie and all?)
There are a lot of photos from the 80s that make me want to go shoot Reagan.
I gotta agree with Haley; I find rape to be pretty distracting myself.
The only thing that will distract me from rape? More rape.
You said "rape" twice.
Sorry, I wasn't paying attention.
http://youtu.be/wIgFbqRngjA
Oh, yes, my bad. I usually catch those. Perhaps I was too busy stampeding cattle through the Vatican.
According to the governor, state funding for rape victims “attempts to serve a portion of our population for which we extend our sympathy and encouragement, but nevertheless, it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused.”
See?! If you slutty women want to get taken seriously you gotta pull some big numbers in the 'chronically ill or abused' game. Rapists, we're counting on you to help a slut out!
It's only a small portion.
And really, they just need our encouragement. You go girl!
You don't just walk into a conservative state with a budget like that for helping abused and victimized people. That budget, with its round seven-figures, its enticing expenditures lines, its already underpaid and overworked staff, it was just asking to be cut.
I misread that as "NIKKI HALEY AXES HALF MILF" and was wondering why she would do such an inhuman thing.
Actually, I have the same question when I read the headline the right way, too.
Your move, Jan Brewer.
Fear not !
She's on it!!! Same reason. It'll save money.
Arizona asks court to ax domestic partner benefits
http://azstarnet.com/news/local/govt-and-politics…
I'll also try to put this in the new linky thingy, 'cause I am THAT hip! Unless I can't figure out how to do it, in which case I'm the loser everyone thinks I am.
Fail. Domain WTF?
And it's South Carolina edging out Mississippi coming around the turn, now running neck-and-neck with Arizona; Florida and Texas coming on strong on the outside …
No no. Mississippi don't worry about no slutty females. Unless, of course, they're shamelessly going around getting abortions and shit.
Who's bringing up the rear?
Duh, Lindsey Graham, silly.
That was a bit of a softball, wasn't it?
That's what he said.
Ah, but a ball that gave rise to a sparkling rally.
Republican men are excited now.
Only if the men they rape cannot seek help. Lindsey!
There is a "c" word I want to use to describe the Governor but my morals prevent me from using it. However, I am perfectly comfortable describing her as a Teabagging shit stain who probably has had more cocks than Ted Nugent's favorite gun.
Callous?
I am not certain, but she *may* have even had more cocks than Ted Nugent.
Just ask blogger Will Folks aka @fitnews. He's the one who swore during Haley's campaign that she was a lyin' cheatin' adulterer, and that he should know because he was the object of her attention. He even passed a lie detector test.
So whatever happened to the scandal? Same thing as Sarah Palin's….crickets…
South Carolina Is For Rapers
Take that, Virginia and your "lovers!!"
There's a difference? It's not like the (supposed) word "rape" appears anywhere in the Bible.
Haley said the $453,000 designated for the South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault’s rape crisis centers “distract[s] from the agency’s broader mission of protecting South Carolina’s public health.”
Better defund the mental hospitals, too.
Like we did in California under Ronald Reagun.
What mental hospitals?
Mental health treatment in South Carolina would appear to be a lost cause.
MINDS in SC appear to be a lost cause.
I've got a call in to Karma. If one of you gets through first, you know what to do.
If we all just kept an aspirin between our knees we wouldn't have to worry.
This is what happens when you declare a War on Women with no exit strategy.
Nikki Haley shouldn’t feel so obligated to prove she is one of the boys. It’s not like the dude governors are defunding penis enlargement research.
The dude governors are probably getting campaign contributions from the Enzyte, Cialis and Viagra people. I suspect Haley is too…
Wow. I'm actually having a hard time believing somebody could be that callous and horrible in a prominent public office. Where the fuck does she get her policy points — Hostel?
Do you mean 'Hostile'?
"Haley said that in place of these prevention programs, each female in South Carolina will be handed an aspirin to hold between her knees."
Better start practicing "It's a Great Day in America" when you answer the phone!
Rape counselors in South Carolina are already required to say that, right?
Former SC Gov Mark Sanford's Press Aide, Will Folks has a column coming out, so to speak, in the National Enquirer in 3, 2, 1…
rape crisis centers “distract[s] from the agency’s broader mission of protecting South Carolina’s public health.”
Oh those rape crisis centers, with their distracting rape victims! Just a bunch of attention whores!
Why isn't Romney vetting Christine O'Donnell?????????
She will bring in the witch/vampire vote, right?
Also, the masturbators, too. Or is it the anti-masturbators? I can never remember.
He's got that locked up already. He just needs to excite and enlarge the base in order to win.
Gov. Haley as VP nominate will greatly stimulate the Republican Base.
We're gonna need a bigger Tylenol.
"extend our sympathy and encouragement, but nevertheless, it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused.”
Ex-Mrs Baconz used to say "when someone sais 'but' everything before they said 'but' is a fucking lie". Thanks Nikki, you proved her point perfectly.
Ex-Mrs. Baconz was wise.
She had a Phd.
Well fucking over rape victims all over again worked for Sarah Palin.
SB: Once again you beat me to it! I was going to ask if South Carolina was going to start charging for rape kits?
Not the James O'Keefe kind of rape kit – the kind to help the victim.
Nimrata's lookin' kinda blonde these days?
Hedley Lamarr: Qualifications?
Nikki Haley: Rape, HPV, mandatory pre-abortion ultrasounds, and rape.
Hedley Lamarr: You said rape twice.
Nikki Haley: I like rape.
Historians will note that during the Obama years, there really was a "Blazing Saddles" quote for every occasion. Usually, though, it was just the line "Up yours, n*****."
With the occasional "excuse me, while I whip this out"
And far too many occurences of: "you know… morons".
After this, Jerry Sandusky and Roman Polanski are looking to get a place together in South Carolina.
I think Mr. Sandusky will be otherwise engaged for some time into the future.
Lock up your daughters AND lock up your sons!
Didn't little Aynie Randy put the rapey-rape in her books? If it's in Atlas Shrugged it's all good, yes?
Oops shouldn't have had that hot sauce; it's repeating me!
In a she was asking for it sort of way.
South Carolina: Come for the bigotry, stay for the rape!
SCCADVASA’s programs also provide prevention education to over 50,000 South Carolina students, which Jacobs said helps prevent sexual violence before it occurs.
Well now. We all know that teaching kids about sex makes them have it nonstop, so if you stop teaching them about rape, *poof* problem solved. See also: racial enmity, global warming.
Ok That takes care of the Raping part. What about the pillaging part.
S.C. gov is not thinking this through.
Don't worry- the pillaging is proceeding at a satisfactory pace.
Rape victims are only victims because they don't like it. They should just accept the fact that any man should be able to have his way with her wherever and whenever and just lay there and like it….see no more victims.
South Carolina was a mess of contradictory opinion when I spent a brief year there during my 20s. Downtown Columbia had a laudable homeless-assistance coalition, but there was some weird regulation prohibiting yard sales. Sale of fireworks throughout the state was lawful, as was riding your motorcycle without a helmet, but bikers needed to find their tattoo services out of state since SC kept out tattoo parlors.
And so the news that a woman in a position of power is denigrating those of her gender with a cavalier attitude about a deeply ingrained domestic violence problem, surprises me about as much as her contstituents' willingness to put a darkie in the governor's seat with one hand and continue to bang the drum at the next Klan rally with the other (lookin' at you, Pelion, SC)~
But at least she's a self-hating brown who changed her name and pretends to be white.
Way to go South Carolina, you keep voting for those Republigoons. You're on your way to lowest point on this big list with all of the most corrupt regimes on the planet. In no time at all you be right down there with…Somalia.

I'd rather have a Vice President shrug when it's done to a woman than shrug when it's done to a country.
Uh…
No, wait, that doesn't really work here, since she's signaling that since she can be trusted to shrug when it's done to women, she can be trusted to shrug when it's done to a country.
Your move, Jindal.
“attempts to serve a portion of our population for which we extend our sympathy and encouragement, but…"
Sounds like the Rick Santorum approach. Sorry you got raped. Major bummer. But look on the bright side: you might be pregnant.
Lemons lemonade something something.
You all know that I work for a rape crisis center. I literally got off the phone with a victim not 1 minute ago. Her abusive boyfriend held a machete to her neck and threatened to push the blade in while she slept.
I never use this word to refer to anyone, but no other word can more succinctly describe my bile: Nikki Haley is a fucking cunt.
I did not know that, Fare la Volpe, now I love you more than ever.
As a parent to daughters, I am saddened by the necessity of "rape crisis centers", but it is painfully clear they are the only life-line for many women… and I heartily agree with your verbiage, if only to illustrate the tone which should be set in retaliation.
As I said, I never use that word lightly because of how misogynistic and destructive it is coming from a man. But misogyny be damned when the target is someone this maliciously cruel.
What shocks me is her assertion that rape isn't a public health problem, when pretty much the first sentence of every. single. research. article. dealing with permutations of family violence/IPV/rape says something to the effect of "It is well established that physical, sexual, and psychological violence against women is a serious threat to women's health." Not to mention findings from the CDC and the NVAWS that are pretty clear that, yes, rape/IPV is a PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS.
Of course I'm blindly assuming that Nimrata actually reads stuff instead of just spouting off politically expedient talking points.
Pfft. You just named a bunch of government agencies. Nothing good ever comes out of government agencies, so all these "findings" not only can, but SHOULD be ignored.
My God that's terrible – I know that these things are in the strictest confidence and so I won't ask any questions, but I hope she'll be all right.
You save lives in your job, thanks from all of us.
No shit. So say we all.
Considering the diseases that can be spread and the medical costs incurred by individuals and the system as a whole by sexual assault, I would say that rape crisis/prevention work is actually a big part of the mission protecting the public health.
Colbert will love this.
"it is only a small portion of South Carolina’s chronically ill or abused"
And if it were a larger number of people, this bitch would come up with the excuse that the state is not capable of serving such a large population.
Bitch.
See: Medicaid.
So approx. 5,000 victims at $453,000 is about $91 per victim, assuming none of that money is going to salary or overhead…
Yeah, with that much money involved, people would just be lining up to be raped.
The children and sluts are obviously asking for it otherwise they would not live in South Carolina.
Virginia is for lovers and South Carolina is for rapers.
She really is a Sikh cunt.
The Repubicans loooove state's rights when they're in the war against women. But when some state legalizes same-sex marriage, they're all "amend the Constitution".
Republicans want to shrink government so it's small enough to drown in a bathtub and rape it.
well what would YOU do if you'd fucked a blogger named 'will folks'??
Ugh – I saw "The Accused" when it first came out and was horrified. Never seen it again. Never want to. Just seeing the still pic brings back the ick.
Oh, and Nikki Haley can kiss my ass.
South Carolina: Condoning assault since April 12, 1861.
South Carolina is home for lots of military and private military contractors. There's an epidemic of sexual assaults within the military and contractor communities. As the fighting winds down overseas, these men will be coming home so by all means, let's defund rape prevention programs.
OF COURSE the victims need South Carolina's sympathy and encouragement! How else will they make it through the pregnancy and child-raising that follows?
How much money is being allocated for seamstresses and bulk purchases of scarlet letters?
We have a weak governor system in SC- Haley might have done better to follow in Sanford's footsteps & just vetoed the whole damned budget. At any rate, the Lege is reconvening a week from today to tackle Haley's vetoes. If anyone should wish to contact Speaker Harrell, please use the 'contact' link below- it can't hurt for him to know out-of-state people are paying attention to this since tourism is a major industry here:
http://bobbyharrell.com/contact/
Tourism, shmourism, South Carolina has priorities!
What are you trying to say? South Carolina loves confirmed bachelors. I can't remember us not having a gay Lt Gov (not that I'm trying that hard), & we keep voting for Lindsey…
I for one applaud Nikki's bold move to help women. By getting government out of the way, she is allowing the private rape counseling market to flourish. Finally consumers will have a choice of rape counselors. If you've been raped, don't turn to some government bureaucrat, call the professionals. $1.99 for the first minute, $3.99 for each additional minute.
Also, domestic violence has pretty much disappeared in South Carolina, like racism.
Well, I don't know the latest population figures for South Carolina, but $453,000-worth IS a lot of aspirin…
Are there no rape camps in South Mississippi Carolina Bama??
"we extend our sympathy and encouragement"
It's nice that she stopped short of saying, "HAH ha!", but still, "sucks to be you" cannot actually be considered "sympathy and encouragement".
Meh. It's a family values thing – it's not rape if it's your husband-brother.
Sounds like these ladies need a little more Jesus and a little less getting raped.
I had sex with Nikki Haley, about a dozen times, or so. She wasn't that great. She kept talking about politics, and women, and food. She was a lousy cook, too. She's terrible at politics, too. But she always had plenty of whiskey, so that was the one good thing about sleeping with her.
Rapists should be forced to pay their victim's father 30 silver coins and then marry the victim, like God demands. That's the free market in action.
Has the war on women been won yet?
This is Good News for Duncan Proctor!
Nikki assumes everybody's love-muffin is naturally protected by an East-Indian Style barbed-wire bush. Understandable mistake…
Well, this is Tea Party America. They're creeping ever closer to their ultimate goal: the decriminalization of rape. I can understand Republican men been eager to see rape decriminalized. I mean, look at their leaders. Eric Cantor just LOOKS like a rapist. He's the guy who showed up at frat parties, scoped out the girls who were drinking the most heavily, then waited until they passed out to rape them. He is that guy. I promise you Rush Limbaugh has never had consenseual sex without paying for it. Though, I am confounded by a woman going along with this plan. Maybe Nikki Haley is like that woman in the Louie episode who had Louie spank her while she called him daddy, then wound up sobbing at the end of the bed. Or maybe Haley have accepted that it's their fault if they get raped. Who knows. Either way, she's a sadistic, backwards cunt. Fuck her and fuck South Carolina.
I deny that slander and calumny.
Well, in fairness, it is a race to the bottom.
