Default Re: Update - Wednesday September 27 --- Shelly Berkley on House Floor

That is correct. This is not a tip-off either way, although Congresswoman Berkley's speech helps to highlight the ridiculous effort to attach I-Gaming to DoD Authorization. Granted, everything that is done has some political overtone, otherwise it would not be politics. But, I do want to let you know that Shelley is a strong supporter of our efforts, so it is not just about politics, but is about good government and I called to thank her for her speech. She at least has it right: Let’s regulate this, and stop trying to push a prohibition bill that will just drive the business underground.

Damn these politicians.

I am truly amazed that it is all coming down to the wire like this, without any information coming out.

There isn't necessarily any news to come out of it. Slow news day all around.
