Rep. Ron Paul Lays the Smack Down on Internet Government Control. He tries in vain to convince his fellow congressmen that the government should not regulate the internet. Today the House started down this slippery slope by passing a bill that legislates Christian morality and bans online poker. 317 votes for "I don't get the internet" verse 93 please keep the internet fair and free.
They did it. You can no longer play poker online. Watch Congresswoman Shelley Berkley (NV-01) call out the Republicans for their shameless tactics and indulgence of the religious rights "moral" agenda.
Rep. Berkley gives one minute of truth - on what the republicans are up to in the defense authorization bill, and why the republicans are undermining the war on terror by including thier pet projects like banning online gambling.
Okay so the leader doesn't mention Iraq once - but never you worry - the Republicans are totally on top of online gambling, and um, like katrina or something, and stuff about terror - but not Iraq - just terror.
What does online poker have to do with port security? Nothing. I like to play online poker and don't like republicans. Another reason to vote Dem in the fall. (like we needed any more).
