In the interests of political fairness, I must point out George Galloway's recent comments on the Assange case... "It wasn't rape - just bad sexual etiquette!"
Rape apologetics is a cross-platform sport.

In this case, George Galloway is 100% accurate.
What Assange is accused of isn't rape, it isn't even a crime in Britain, or the US.
In Sweden they have a joke. It's " that counts as rape, in Sweden ". If, for expample, you brush against a woman, they say, "that counts as rape in Sweden".
Because if you don't get a signed consent form, and ten good witnesses, virtually every instance of sex counts as rape in Sweden.
