There's hope. Maybe he signed the wrong name.

It doesn't talk of online gaming tho.

He just called me and briefly the contents of the signed bill are as follows:

signed a bill Friday to help prevent terrorists from sneaking a nuclear, chemical or germ weapon into the United States inside one of the 11 million shipping containers that enter the nation each year — many without inspection

Well, that's because that weasel, Bill Frist, snuck the anti-online gaming bill onto the back end of it. It has nothing to do with the actual bill itself, which is to protect our nation's ports. Nobody, as a result, will say much about it.

Most of us drink alcohol responsibly anyways.. Addcitions come in many forms.. Some of us are addicted to junk food, lets ban that too.. Some of us are addcited to sex why not ban that.. oh yeah and how about television.. hell most of us watch at least 6 hours a day... lets ban televesion too!!!!! Poker can either be played responsibly or not but to say that we are all adicted to it is absurd.. I know for a fact some spend more money on Mcdonalds than on poker.. LEts BAN McDonalds... people are seriously addicted to BIG MACS and by the looks of it I am sure Bill Frist is ..
