The only thing government knows how to run is the military, in which Obama is down sizing as he doesn't want us to be the number #1 super power. This was his fathers dream and his mentors, especially Franklin Marshall Davis. He was brainwashed as a young kid as a communist. Another 4 years of him and watch everything come tumbling down. Double dip recession followed by a civil right here in your backyard.
    Hey dummy,

    Do you not realize that requiring filtering software of every computer sold (Romney's plan) is NOT free market capitalism?

      more money in drugs and murder for the government when it's not regulated...

      truth of the matter, online poker doesn't generate that much rake and for online casinos and sportsbetting, there are too many oppositions.

        Isn't one of Romney's biggest campaign contributors a Las Vegas guy? Why doesn't he set the agenda?

            Sheldon Adelson. He owns LV Sands (Venetian/Palazzo). He's entirely against online gambling. He thinks it will hurt brick and mortar business. Apparenly, he doesn't realize the effect that online poker has had on his poker room (which is currently being expanded/remodeled).

              Well...the thing is it's easier to follow the money of winners and losers when the player goes with the state lotteries (i.e., scratch-offs, lottos, etc.).

                That's sound reasoning, but you have to ask yourself with the shitstorm going on with the economy and this country in general... why are they even mentioning Internet gambling? My answer would be to placate the religious and the big time power brokers that are dead set against Internet gambling and will put their money up against it.

                I voted for Bush twice, but didn't vote for McCain and won't vote for Romney. The Republicans lost me when they passed that last online gambling bill by tacking it on some bullshit border security law. In my view, they will be looking out for the bible bangers and special interest cash again. I would have supported Ron Paul in a big way, but the GOP would never get behind him because they want to hand pick their puppet in office. Fukc them.

                I'd rather have a lazy SOB like Obama in office with (hopefully) a Republican majority in Congress. That way, nothing will get done, which is preferable to me to them ******* things up even worse. Romney gets elected, and I bet we will be at war with Iran within a year. Fukc that.

                        Did you not see the $716 billion cut from Medicare part in Obamacare?? Of course you didn't because NOT ONE SINGLE DEM read the 2,000+ page bill before passing it!!!

                            Who were the losers that said they would increase the debt ceiling in exchange for spending cuts determined by the super committee? When the committee could not agree automatic cuts were to kick in and who are the losers crying and trying to get the military spending cuts that kick in on Jan 2013 undone? Party is all a bunch of hypocrites never willing to do one thing even when it has been agreed upon.

                              Wait. What? Your counter is that Obama is REDUCING government spending in an entitlement program?

                              That's a bad thing? LOL.

                              Wow. You have no right to call anyone a dumbass.

                                    i have made up my mind to pull for obama to win because it would be funnier to see the disappointment and anger of republicans because of how outspoken they are in their anger.
