Message: [QUOTE="FastOne, post: 1940214, member: 82838"] Absolutely. This one is impressive: “I generally have opposed gambling across the board in all forms. So though I have not seen the bill, I probably would oppose it”, as well as this other one: “Online poker? No, I wouldn't vote for it,” said Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma. “I'd vote against it. I don't like gambling.” Makes me wonder if some of the members of Congress actually read bills before passing them (at least part of the bill, some of them are huge) and not just base their voting on the title of the bill and what their principles or beliefs are toward the given issue at stake (aside from any interest they may have on passing/not passing a bill ($ involved)). I feel it kind of similar as a juror who feels the person about to be trial is inocent or guilty based on he's gut feeling toward him/her even before the trial begins. [/QUOTE]
