For our Senators to give off an aire of intelligence, they first must read the legislation that is put before them. Senator Mitch McConnell (R - KY) being interviewed before the State of the Union address said that he was in favor of President Bush's proposal about Social Security, and stated it is "interesting".
From my experience in life, anyone that says something is "interesting" has no grasp of what is being discussed.
You've lambasted Frisky more than anyone here. Do you think he read more than one page of the UIGEA before submitting it for passage at midnite? Do you think any of the Senators did? If they had, it definately wouldn't have been a slam-dunk because it's filled w/ambiguities.
I'm really happy that Lefebvre and Lawrence have such deep pockets and are united in fighting this. Their lawyers will expose this legislation for what it is, total bullshit. And the fact that it was pork-barrel legislation may be in their favor because it was shot down originally by the Senate because of the ambiguities whereby they stated that either all internet gaming is illegal to include horseracing, etc, or none of it is ... no carve-outs.
Corruption at its finest ...
