I'm not commenting on any other government policy but I absolutely hate this! Paradise Poker and Sportsbook have shutdown their link making it nearly impossible for me to make my weekly football wagers. I'd been making on average $100 a week betting on NFL games....oh well

Clinton would love to be back in office right now, while in office was the last time he had his hand in the nookie jar.

I guess Bush and his gang "hate our freedoms" as much as Osama. Ever since 9/11, the U.S. Government has been using "terrorism" as an excuse to get rid of anything their religious fanatic supporters don't like or doesn't line their pockets (probably not in that order)! online poker has nothing to do with security or terrorism yet the speeches today were about nothing but.
As a matter of fact, all the "enemies of freedom" that Bush professes to be fighting , Osama and the Ayatollahs , hate online poker or any form of gambling.

this is ****ing ridiculous!! I have been away from this site but I had to come here and say something. I play at partypoker and I can no longer play there for money . I am unable to work and so I have made a living of this and had worked out so far. I even bought a big screen tv (sweet!) with my earnings and have been able to get by with my winnings. If people want to gamble money, then let them do that. I look at this at a form of entertaiment and a safe one at that. Since I started playing online poker , I have managed to stay away from bars or other places that could be worst.I dont understand how this is much different then a casino . I havent been to casinos alot but the few times that I been there to play poker I made some money , so what the hell is the difference? There's way bigger problems that the gov should concentrate on then a simple game of poker which brings joy to millions. I am so mad at this and I hope we can at least keep some part of online poker and I dont mean that play for free crap. Just another reason to hate the government

But in all fairness, Gore would normally have trouble signing his own name anyway.Al Gore wouldn't have signed it.
LOL...NOT.
Yep. Pity though. JFK was doing Marilyn Monroe without issue and Clinton gets busted for getting a hummer from the chubby intern. LOLClinton would love to be back in office right now, while in office was the last time he had his hand in the nookie jar.
^^^This^^^ACK!
When Clinton was in office, the general manta in the military was "Impeach the president and her husband". But if she runs, she will likely need to do it as an independent. She most likely would not get support from the Democratic party for several reasons (including pissing many of them off as a thinks she knows it all Jr member of the Senate.)

First they take My Pot. then they try to regulate my guns. Now THIS!!!!
Why are they taking all our Vices?
This is Just further proof that las vegas has way more say than the millions of people who play poker online everyday. now you tell me, is that a democracy. Online gambling was hurting only one group. people who run casino's. now if the casino's were just a little bit smarter they would have started their own online poker sites. but vegas is a desert full of retards (kiddies watch out for the profanity here) And I SAY **** YOU VEGAS!!!

Here are some of the other great things Clinton did (in no particular order)
1. Reduced our military too drastically, even after numerous terror attacks.
2. Though the WTC bomber was convicted, did nothing to stop further attacks. When further attacks came, he swore to seek justice, but did nothing. (He actually intentionally passed up a chance to have Osama Bin Laden killed).
3. Separated info sharing between the CIA and the FBI that prevented both from getting the proper intel prior to 9/11.
4. Committed purgery under oath (this would be about the hummer and smoking kitty dipped cigars)
5. Gave nuclear secrets away to North Korea.
6. Mogadishu
7. Bosnia

Just putting in my 2 cents but I think Both Gore and Clinton would have signed this bill also. Clinton ran his entire policy on poll data and I'm sure most polls would have more people in favor of this bill than against it (most would probably have no opinion). Has anyone heard of Gore, Clinton or any other major polititian speak out against this bill? I haven't. Remember it wasn't just republicans that voted for this bill but many, many democrates too. Saying Gore or Clinton wouldn't have signed this bill isn't living in reallity.
I'm not going to argue about the merits of any particular president on other matters, that's different opinions which we are all entittled too, but don't think for a second that a democratic president wouldn't have signed this bill also.

i think its crazy that its against the law to play online, but i can go to a poker room in my city - in a state where gamling is "illegal". we also have lottery and horse racing. . . anyway, i just don't understand the rationale behind this.
politics is such a monstrous beast, and its too big and old to change at this point. . .
