Just nailed a bunch of these guys again - got through the For and Unsure list before Facebook threw up the Stop Sign. I'll hit the rest later.

We should leave Paul Ryan alone for now. His page is getting owned by some other group over another issue. Let's let him be and then come back later.

Re: Fight for Poker Rights: Monday, July 4th (see post #1 for today's plan)

Let's all respectfully tell Congress that we demand our liberty this Independence Day! Let's focus on the Facebook pages of members of the House Judiciary Committee and continue to own these pages.

The FOR/AGAINST/UNDECIDED/UNKNOWN after each name is based on support for H.R. 1174. An “x” in front of a name indicates that lawmaker does not allow open posting. We can still comment, but it has to be via a response to an existing wall post.
Republicans
Democrats

Rep. Judy Chu changed her Facebook wall settings. Now only she can post, but we (well, most of us) can comment. If I were to post (if I could), I'd post to http://www.facebook.com/RepJudyChu/p...50701109105131.

Re: Fight for Poker Rights: Tuesday, July 5th (see post #1 for today's plan)

Does anybody think the rake online poker charged was/is too high? I think having an industry standard would be fair. Also imo the majority of players aren't concerned enough with security. Maybe if cheating was actually criminalized and cheaters actually had to face legal justice...

Are either of those actually issues with bringing it back to american players?
