I figured out the problem. It was the browser. I use Chrome and had no problems, but in IE, I got the bad link.

Roxie Deaton I think no one should support HR 2366. Voting to approve that bill would just reward spammers. Thanks guys, for clogging up the thread.

@Roxie, you're afraid of passing this bill because you perceive we're "spamming" this wall? So you're against allowing Americans to play poker and have freedom of speech as well? We're organized, strong, and passionate about a basic American freedom!
