What about the point that he makes about legalizing online poker circumventing state and local laws? That kinda seems like a good point, as much as I hate this guy...

Re: House Financial Services Committee Markup on HR 2267 (markup on HR 2267 now!)

First amendment by Sherman of CA, sites who have intentionally broken B&M or Internet gaming laws can not get a license.

Amendment passes by voice vote.

Second amendment by King of NY:

Prohibits sportsbetting on the amendment, except for horseracing.

They are talking about sportsbetting, what about excluding poker from UIGEA? Sorry I'm not sure how all this stuff works..will this be addressed?
