You also didn't realize how the UIGEA was passed, that it was a rider on a port security bill that was deviously put in by Bill Frist as an offering to his social conservative base in advance of what would be a failed 2008 GOP Presidential run. You seemed to think it was passed after Congressional debate on the topic - that never happened. You wanted so bad to blame Democrats for our lack of online poker, all the while oblivious to the fact that it is mostly the Sheldon Adelsons and Steve Wynns (close friends and supporters of Trump) along with social conservative nutbags who believe in Noah's Ark and people living to 900 years old, who are responsible for you and I being unable to play on PokerStars.
If you could drop your "liberals are the worst" mindset and see issues individually for what they are, you might have better informed opinions on some of them.

Nice revisionist history to try to claim Republicans killed it, that's a good one!
Both of these posts have some true facts. But that is the end of political references in this thread. We have a politics forum for that. You have both had your say. We are trying to keep NVG, within reasonability, a politics free zone.
