very odd how few people commented on my post.

I think that's because we were all pretty much aware of Brownback's position. I do appreciate you posting confirmation of it. Thanks for the post, and thanks for writing to Brownback.

I'm' not too surprised. They usually write back at least once. As for poker vs. gambling, Brownback sent you a canned response that he sends to everyone who asks about Internet gaming. Aside from this, FoF does see poker as the same as gambling, as do many of the anti-gaming politicians.

Lotteries are passed strictly as revenue measures.
