**TheEngineer** · 05-13-2011, 04:05 PM

Weekend of May 18th

Let's all be sure to participate in the community daily action plan! It is an easy, effective way for us to magnify our individual voices. By organizing, we have succeeded in securing virtually 100% of political social media poker discourse. State and federal lawmakers have noticed!

Let's retweet & favorite today's action plan HERE, HERE, and HERE, share it on our Facebook walls HERE, and share it via Google+ HERE.
Let's make & like poker posts on FL Gov. Rick Scott's Facebook wall HERE. With that state's cybercafe law's unintended consequences on ClubWPT, we'll want to ensure he hears from us this weekend!
Let's send OH Gov. John Kasich & NC Gov. Pat McCrory prefilled, fully editable poker tweets: HERE and HERE
Let's send NM Gov. Susana Martinez & NE Gov. Dave Heineman prefilled, fully editable poker tweets: HERE and HERE
Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "done", etc. to encourage others. Thanks for participating!

My plan is to update this daily with actions we can take. I'll change the thread title daily, of course, as it's updated.

No difference. Users can add their own poll questions.

I think it is telling that every post on Bill Frist's page that asks him if he received money from Harrahs has been deleted and posters of these messages blocked. Guess the senator is ashamed of his behavior and refuses to own up to it. Since he represents Tennessee it is up to you voters to get him out of there.

When the link is followed (not logged in) it is sad because I know they are deleting poker related post. The only poker related one they left, when the page is first opened, is the one that makes us all sound like uniformed idiots, see above, since of course Frist retired in 07. Followed the link earlier today and there were 2 other post beneath it that made our standard solid points and now they are both gone.

You can expand and see the poll and such but makes me wonder how much editing is being done and makes me sad that they are pretending to give the public a voice and opinions be heard but really its only to serve their own purposes.
