“WASHINGTON - Congressional Republicans attached a measure cracking down on Internet gambling to a bill aimed at enhancing port security that passed Saturday.”
Republicans have always been keen on legislating morality and it looks like gambling is their latest target. I wonder how much this war on gambling will cost us in the years ahead? I already know it won’t be won.
“Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, (R-Tenn), and Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz), pushed for the gambling provision to be added to the larger bill.
“Kyl and Frist previously tried unsuccessfully to put the measure on a bill authorizing funding for the military, but critics said the Defense Department bill was no place for the gambling measure.”…but it’s OK for these two bozos to add it to a port security bill?
