    Its not really Bush though. That bill was tacked on to other more useful bills in a very underhanded way.

    I have a hard time seeing how they can force Banks to give over this information since it is not even technically illegal to play poker online yet.

    This so much resembles a communist regime its scary...
    Lots of good rakeback options at http://www.rakeguard.com/?raf=KRE8R

    KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

    Yeah, but what they're doing there is going after the investment banks that took the online gaming stocks public. They're basically going after the underwriters.

    I think you mean facist, not communist.

    Does anyone know how they got Prohibition repealed last century? And can we work toward bringing those circumstances about again so it happens for online gambling too?

    Honestly, history was my worst subject and I don't remember anything useful.

    I disagree with many decisions myself, but this really isn't the place. If you want to talk about how he/they effect poker, fine. If you just want to politically rant, there are many places that would love to hear your thoughts

    Thanks for your input though
