Don't hesitate to question why the gambling on horses isn't against in this and yet poker is. Go get her!

This is my #2 beef with the legislation. Such utter hipocrisy.

I don't think she knows about, nor cares about the legislation.

Yeah unfortunately it's his wife, not Frist himself, so she may not know much (if anything) about the legislation. Regardless, I think that showing up and making my point is still worth a shot.

Feel free to use the letter I wrote to my senator. Modify it how you like. I'm not sure if it's 100% what your looking for, this is just how I felt so it's what I wrote.

Wow thanks, I'm gonna make a few changes and print it out for her to read (here's hoping it doesn't find its way to the nearest trash can).

Arguing rationally with a politician/associate of a politician is useless. Think of a zinger, and use it. She'll feel worse than if you laid out an argument politely.

I think reason works alot better with wives than with associates of politicians -- especially if I can convince a few buddies of mine to do the same thing at random intervals in the crowd. Hopefully I can at least get her to mention it to Frist or something...
