I think True Poker has a perfectly reasonable interp of this law, and I'm glad someone is standing up and publicly stating that they intend to test this legislation instead of mutely accepting that 'the end is here.' I bet if conservatives knew everyone was going to roll over so easily, they would have saved themselves some time and just replaced the entire text of the bill with "Boo!".

Like everything Frist writes, this bill is a piece of crap. As i've said time and time again, panic is the worst possible reaction - it gives conservatives everythign they want and relieves them of the need to do any work to get it.

Party has to make some kind of vanilla statement because they have jittery shareholders.

I've dealt personally with the CEO of True in the past and I have no doubts about his intelligence or the competence of the staff working on this issue for them. I'm not sure why anyone is interested in tearing down one of the few positive pieces of news we've heard over the last few days.

I'd like to thank True for a rational, useful contribution to the discussion about this law and what it means for our industry.
