My problem with politics

A smart dude like Bill Frist can transplant hearts and lungs for a living, make a lot of money and poof, he’s qualified to help run our country.

“Don’t worry, I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night …” .

He went to Princeton, therefore, he’s all knowing, I get it.

I only point out Frist because he touched an issue that affects me (UIGEA), but this is a common scenario with many congressman, I’m sure. (See Ron Paul, OB/GYN/Congressman)

He’s a christian, so he’s obviously a moral guy.  So moral and smart that he feels compelled to protect all of us heathens from ourselves.  Playing poker on the internet is for the devil.

Actually, if you play poker on the internet, “the terrorists win”.  Why else would the UIGEA be on the Safe Port Act?

Just FYI – terrorists were using gambling sites as a way to transfer funds to one another… the vail of morality was thrown on for good measure.

btw – I am not saying terrorists use gambling sites – i dont really think there are a lot of terrorists, more so people using terms like ‘terrorist’ to get things passed through congress using fear (billion dollar bailouts, etc)

I think there is some speculation of gambling sites being used for passing dirty money. But, ATM machines were used by 9/11 hijackers. Should we outlaw them?
