    Standard political ploy used by both major parties.

    Naked piggyback attempt.

    Fish don't set up Neteller accounts. They use credit cards.

    This is BAD news. If it does get attached I don't think there is much we CAN do. It will get voted through. If it is just credit cards then it's not as bad as outlawing online poker. All of my credit cards are already blocked anyway. That being said, yes, this is how it starts. If they can't get it all at once, they will take it from us one piece at a time. We can't quit fighting now.

    if they get people to associate online gambling with terrorism in any form thats bad news. Bush and his party did a great job of making 9/11=Iraq and because of that we are where we are. I really hope this doesnt happen its a major step in the WRONG direction.

    Frist is thinking about running in 2008.

    Activity like this brings his true motivations into question. Wait, he is a politician. His motivations are questionable by definition.

    Anyway, blatantly attempting to piggyback this bill onto one that would normally get a rubber stamp will be viewed even by many of his Republican colleagues as a cheap trick.
