Default Congresswoman speaks against online gaming bill

My favorite congresswoman Shelly Berkley of Nevada is speaking out against the new online gaming legislation, calling it a "Ridiculous abuse of power." She also said, "Internet gaming is going to exist whether the US congress says it can or not."

“You make sure your member of Congress knows that you are opposed to the ban on Internet gambling,” she said. “Believe me when I tell you, we count the number of calls we get.”

Especially in an election year, good advice to everyone.
