No Wonder Timberlake Dumped Her

How much of an idiot is Cameron Diaz? I fear we have yet to find out:

On Oprah's Wednesday 'voting party' show featuring important celebrities like P. Diddy (Vote or Die!), Drew Barrymore and Christina Aguilera, svelte suffragette Cameron Diaz took to shock tactics to get the female vote out. After a discussion with Oprah on lynching and the vote, Diaz spoke of the dire consequences for women if they sit out this election: Ms. DIAZ: We have a voice now, and we're not using it, and women have so much to lose. I mean, we could lose the right to our bodies. We could lo--if you think that rape should be legal, then don't vote. But if you think that you have a right to your body, and you have a right to say what happens to you and fight off that danger of losing that, then you should vote, and those are the... WINFREY: It's your voice. Ms. DIAZ: It's your voice. It's your voice, that's your right.

Emphasis mine. Rape being legal? Didn't we not just free a nation where rape was used as a tool of terror? Was rape not used as a matter of course by Uday? Give me a break. Although I did not see this interview, it appears as though Oprah did not rebut her on that poor choice of words.
