Online gambling to be attached to defense bill???- article Uh oh!!!

[daedalus]

I particular like this quote...

"Meanwhile, senators all over the country are being bombarded by phone calls from the poker players alliance and other internet gambling supporters begging them to stop the attachment Frist is proposing.

Senator Clinton's office received more than 50 calls in one hour oppsosing any action against internet gambling. Senator Richard Durbin, at the Illinois office experienced a higher than normal call volume, and people were struggling to get through. Senator John Cornyn's office in Texas received between 100-200 calls from people expressing their views. In Virginia, Senator Allen received over 26 calls from opposers of the gambling bill.

Senators are elected to support the majority, but it appears that Senator Bill Frist is only looking out for his conservative minority.
