Tried to "like" the facebook post by Rich, but for some reason I click but it doesn't do anything.

That is odd. We haven't see that problem before that I know of. Have you tried again?

LOL. Nice job!

Yesterday's action had 148 likes. Let's bump this action to triple digits as well!


U.S. House and Senate leaders have appointed twelve members of Congress to serve on the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction. This “super committee" is charged with developing policies to reduce the U.S. deficit and then make specific recommendations to Congress which will be voted on. This is a great opportunity for us to make our voices heard. Let's go to their Facebook pages and let them know that we want them to take action on the online poker issue!

The names with an “x” in front of them are those who do not allow direct posting on their Facebook wall. Simply post a comment in response to an appropriate post (i.e., one suitable for a pro-poker comment) already on the page. PLEASE remember to say please and thank you. Courtesy goes a long way.

Let's all also remember to revisit these walls to like the pro-poker posts and comments made since your last visit. Thanks!

Here's the Super Committee:

i love seeing a whole page plastered with ipoker support

Let's have tomorrow's action focused on Sen. John Kerry's (D-MA) walls (he has two). If a few of us can post there around midnight ET, I'll choose the best one from each wall for that action. Thanks!

Some afternoon nitpicking: "55 volunteers + 10 sec each = a win for Wednesday!" should be changed to "55 volunteers X 10 sec each = a win for Wednesday!"

Usually I can click on the "thumbs up" icon next to "X# people like this" and it will add me to the list. It does not. Tried again today with the new one and it did not do anything... again....

I "friended" Rich, thinking that might be the problem, but still no go...

Good point. I updated it.

[2:33:16 PM] Sheryl J.: Link ^^^ -- somebody, please go to VanHollen's page, click on most recent, scroll down to just beyond Ryan Wold and Phil G, and post comments under all of the comments who have the HR number wrong. So when they post tomorrow, they might do it right. I cannot make posts or comments, or I would do it. Thanks.

45 80 likes. Let's get this over 100!

Almost there! Mid-90s now.

I've said it before but it really seems like a shame that of the thousands of people who visit this site and love to play poker, we're struggling to get a hundred people each day to participate..

100

TE, have you heard anything substantial about the facebook push players are making from congresspeople?

+∞

Yes. Our lobbyists report that many lawmakers have mentioned that they are hearing from a bunch of us via Facebook.

This is making a difference.
