FPUSA website was last updated 4-13-2012

Last FPUSA tweet: 4-13-2012 (2 re-tweets 4-25-2012)

Evidently, the contract either ran out or was shut down.

If you think that horse is dead, wait until FPUSA produces another made-to-order study or gets some speech from one of their paid mouthpieces about some legislation, even though they don't "lobby".

Once the election is over, i.e. during the lame duck, they likely will be looking for a new contract or two for MidAtlantic.

I have no idea what Marisa weighs, but this opera ain't over until she sings another aria.

I think Marisa has moved back to DailyKos and the like. Shocked, she seemed like such a lifelong, passionate poker advocate.

Re: FairPlayUSA discussion

fpusa got a lot of "pro-licensing&regulation for ipoker" onto the logs of those hearings they were at. it's in writing for congressmen to reference whenever they want. gj, didn't cost me a dime.

Re: FairPlayUSA discussion

PPA (well, like, the poker industry) should implement whatever was(is?) positive about FPUSA. Educate law officials and soccer moms about poker. Also, enlist Parry Aftab, Luis Freeh and Tom Ridge - it's not like they'll require salary or anything.

Shocking that letting a mentally unhinged person who didnt like to answer questions run a PR campaign on twoplustwo didnt meet with positive results.
