lol just a bit
hi Harry
I think they have more than a bit to do with it ;-)
seem to remember evil cat killer Frist has taken campaign money from -
Horse Racing group - they got an exclusion
Harrah's - they're shares went up as PartyPoker shares went down
and while he's sermonising to the world about the adictive nature of online gambling he's happy to take others cash for equally "addictive" products like cigarettes
his campaign against online gambling - lets remember the bill which is passed is still NOT a proper black and white ban on online poker - It's a backdoor attempt by a senator who is just trying to pick up votes from the southern baptists and the bible bashing south
not that I have anything against them - what they do is no one elses business - the same as what other Americans choose to do isn't any of theirs or Bill Frists either
If he was whiter than white ie. He hadnt adopted and killed cats while at Med School, taken money from other gambling and addictive companies ... and put the bill up on its own (he did and it didn't get anywhere) then fair enough
but he didn't and he isn't so it's hardly a law from the moral high ground and it's also still not a law which BANS online poker - It only enforces law against banking transactions with poker sites - The US banks havn't been dealing with online gambling for months anyway
cheers scrawnybob
