Message: [QUOTE="dj11, post: 1738852, member: 13851"] For all practical purposes the game is already legal. Exceptions for Washington State, and perhaps one other state. So we don't need/want anybody changing that. What is at issue here is the government telling us we can spend money according to what they want us to buy, and can not spend it buying stuff we want to buy. While they might make a case that they can make buying a hit man to solve our problems a legal no no, where do WE LET THEM (?) draw the line? What is good for any sub group in America, has shown to be good for the whole group of Americans. I am thinking here of the simple example of wheelchair ramps at intersections, benefiting all. Not the once rife practice of whites only which seemed to benefit.....whites only. While churches may be tax-exempt (by law), should donations to the church be tax exempt? Without much effort I would guess a decent group of lawyers could show that particular movement of money could oh so easily be considered money laundering. Not to mention that many might consider it funding a terrorist organization. While the basic freedoms we all feel where violated are emotional responses, and we should look for more concrete foundations to base our objections on, the issue seems to revert to a nanny state notion. I dislike the Teabaggers for their outlandish assumptions, but if ever we needed a group to stop the bs, they may be it. Any Teabagger who supports the DOJ actions, should be dumped in Boston Harbor, tarred and feathered........:mad: Same with less radical Republicans who promote themselves as champions of individual rights, as in guns...... Democrats should be wider open about most all subjects, but I think they fear the online poker issues on some undefined moral basis. I know both the California Senators are uncommitted with statements that tend to make me think they will oppose any legislation to regulate online poker. While neither might go so far as to make it illegal, they don't look to be supporters. Same with the majority of Ca Representatives. [/QUOTE]
