  • Republicans have never supported individual liberty. They want to tell you who you can marry, who you can sleep with, what games you can play, what drugs you can do, what you can do with your body. This list does on and on.

    FUCK YOU REPUBLISCUM

  • Online poker got shut down because of bank fraud, however the banks made a profit! Intresting?

  • Lets all remember that nothing can be made law unless the president signs it. Also it is no surprise that a rep. from Nevada is against online poker, not a conflict of interest now is it??? Now for the communism charge. Were we communist in the 1700's? Was there communism in the 1700's? No but there were laws against gambling then till the present.. Puritan maybe but not communist. If it were communist the democrats would be all over it...

  • Republicans ban online poker. UPDATE Obama administration bans online poker, 2011.

  • Banning poker is patently anti-conservative. That's why its so ridiculous that the GOP are working so hard to ban such a distinctly American game. A game so American that the two most popular variations are named after American locations.

  • The UIGEA started on Friday 13th! Internet gaming doesn't hurt peopl in other countries! Responsible gamers practice endlessly, set win & loss limits, & tak 20x t amt of their averge bet.  WHY IS INTERNET HORSE-RACE BETTING STILL LEGAL? Becaus it is SO risky, just t very rich, (mostly Republcans!) can do it! The reasoning here is clear: THEY JUST DON'T WANT 'ORDINARY' AMERICANS TO MAKE MONEY! :_(

  • Online gaming is very damaging to society.

  • The IDF slaughtered women and children in Gaza and she's worried I can't play online poker?

    Isn't her state the only on that has legalized gambling? Isn't Vegas enough?

    Let me apologize to the world for the stupidity of the American people

  • yeah canada

  • Shes Awsome, makes a great point!

  • she has a point

  • Support our guys in the war.

    Wasting over 1 billion only for saddam hussein?

  • Interesting fact: Overall, the more liberal any given state is, the higher the test scores are in said state's high schools. The more conservative any given state is, the lower the test scores. This has been true every year test scores have ever been documented. Say anything?

  • fucin whore...go blow ur fucin head off u fucin cunt motherfucker

  • Too bad its the U.S......Every onliners dream is a site that bans Israel and Italy.

  • Fuck RepubliCUNTs before they fuck you.

  • You're wrong. :)

  • lol thats why they call americans stupid, crocfme, cause there are ppl like u

  • I totally agree. There are some smart Americans for sure, but the vast majority are as dumb as dogshit.

  • @crocfme Know of any place that's different?

  • LOL. No, its pretty much the same here...

  • Jews and Wops play a very hard game. I meant that it would be easier for saps like me to win without them...Its not dis-respect that I meant....but who does get the tax benifit here?...I'm curious?

  • Americans wank off dogs..lmao

  • The government will eventually give in, and I will be ready at virtualfelt com for sure.

  • LOL

  • who the fuck do they think they are to just start banning shit? ban this ban that because we dont like it. why not ban all gambling? what happened to free market? piece of shit repubs suck my dick never come back into office go form your own unsuccessful country

  • They can't tax online gambling,dirty bastard's.

  • @ponic420h Ron Paul fought the ban on gambling, but he's not your typical Republican. He is the only member of Congress who actually believes in the free market.

    Ron Paul 2012

  • Notice how they only gave her 3 min. I hate our goverment! Obama has got to change this bull-sti+ law! Its true other countries are more free than our own! I just hope nothing bad happens to Obama! I think Bush and company will use terristick mantality to their advantage and do away with him.

  • dont understand freedom in america... the only country now in the world that cannot play poker online

    what a joke, moving to canada or somewhere else as soon as possible.

    this lady rules btw.

  • Obama please save us.

  • this lady is off the chain

  • I LOVE THIS GIRL I'LL MARRY HER

  • they never banned it they tryed though i make my income from online poker and it would not be fare to just eliminate some ones job,o wait nafta did that lol

  • this is america, a free country. shouldent we be allowed to play poker for money, sounds communist to me.

  • @rabbit007888 Ron Paul for president 2012

  • I wonder how this woman and the dems feel when it comes to protecting second amendment rights

  • i wonder how she voted on giving the FDA the power to regulate tobacco. Futhermore she said she voted for the bill she is just as bad as the ones she is bitching about.

  • fuck republican scum, most of them are either idiots, or very clever criminals.

  • fuck you republican, alot of people gamble. if we let republicans keep banning shit, then what will u.s. citizens be able to do? play with themselves? fuck off

  • Haha. Wow. Well, proves our level of status. Please, approach me in and orderly manner, and back up your argument a little instead of freaking out.

    Thanks.

  • Ruins people's lives huh? Exactly how many Americans do you think get their lives ruined because of poker? Probably somewhere around 0.00001% of all online poker players. Now instead, now think of how many people in the U.S. play poker as a recreational past time activity with their hard earned money in the comfort of their own homes? Many, many people.. So basically what you are saying is that you want poker banned to "protect" the 0.00001% of all online poker players.

  • Also.. (ran out of room) They should be more worried about casino's for this matter than fucking online poker. Freedom eh? I'm beginning to think we have the least amount of freedom here in America than anywhere else in the world, and don't even call me a hypocrite, I'm packing my bags as I type this.

    If you want to discuss this issue more, I will gladly talk to you on a private basis.Thanks for reading.

    Btw,ifyouareacollegestudent,do­n'tyou thinkvideogamessuchasWoWismore­ofaconcern? lmao. Silly.

  • It's real simple. The govt should NOT have a right to interfere with our own personal decisions as long as our decisions don't harm others. IF it is going to be a free country, the govt can NOT take away our freedom of choice whether it be to play poker or anything else. Some suit in Wash has no business taking away our freedoms. Playing poker online may not be the best choice for some but it is THEIR choice to make! THEIR mistake to make. Let them make it!

  • LOL there are like 7 people there. I hope the rest were actually working on laws that matter and help us.

  • she make 100k a monthe she can go fuk herself

  • she reminds me of my 9th grade pc teacher she was a binge gambler and smoked a carton a week

  • Government will always ban something when they know they won't get their cut. And it's always never enough...

  • Very true but no all the blame goes to Republicans

  • How could you, republicans? Where did the 'limited-government' idea go? Damn, I'm so disappointed. Not going to vote democratic, though...

  • another reason not trust government

    reason #12,202,254,698,025

  • The US Gov should create it's own site and enjoy the rake, and the bank interest from deposits.

  • they do its called living in the us

  • We're getting screwed by both Parties, it doesn't matter which you think is better, they are both sorry!!!

    This country needs to throw everybody out of Washington DC and rewrite the constitution! You mean to tell me that we couldn't come up with something better than what several drunks come up with over 200 years ago?

    I say, yes we can!!!

  • Ok?

  • Every comment below is totally ignorant. They can't just legalize online poker and let criminal enterprises like Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet run amok. And the team play that goes on at the highest stakes online. The industry is corrupt.

  • Are you retarded? If it's legalized they'd have gaming commissions set in place to handle internal affairs and collect taxes. It wasn't bringing in revenue through taxes so they banned it. Fascists.

  • Americans are retarded.

  • Politics as usual. This is your government at work. What a joke! They can attach anything to anything! Sleazy! Lowdown! Rotten! They can do it because they make the laws. This is an outrage! Sorry to see she voted "yes" just the same. A "NO" vote would have made a stronger statement!

  • fuck republicans.

  • That right fuck them, Dam bush takes the money out of our pocket just to cover up his fuck up in IRAQ

  • Wow. That is false, but whatever.

  • SNAP

  • Funny country banning internet poker but still letting it's citizens to buy weapons. LOL

  • They can't stop us from owning guns. We have the Bill of Rights. The 2nd Amendment allows us to Keep and Bear Arms. We have it because the Founders knew that to ensure it remained a government for and by the people, the People need to be able to forcibly regain control of the government, and thus they made owning a gun a right that even the government itself can not deny.

  • Actually it was so they could keep the old redcoats from ever setting up shop in their homes again buddy

  • Greg Raymer is Running for Vice President. Search for "greg raymer politics" on You Tube.

  • They could not find a way to tax internet gaming, that is why they banned it.

  • Exactly! Hit the hammer on the nail terra! The online poker sites are located off shore,and since they are not in the United States, The Government cannot make a profit from it. It's a rediculous bill.

  • This government sucks. What the hell business is it of theirs how people choose to spend their money? Especially when most of us work our butts off for what money we have.

    I love how there' only about 8 people in attendance, while the rest of the seats are empty. Our public representatives hard at work!

  • One of the most outrageous sneak plays in government history- once again the Repubicans flail away at non-issues in the name of national security. How subversive can online poker be compared to porous borders for terrorist entry?

  • Your "outrageous sneak plays" gets my nominee for quote of the year! I will NEVER vote Rep if they want to tell me what I can do with my $ from the privacy of my own bedroom. Not to mention delaying a bill for national security. This woman is my hero.

  • fuck the republicans

  • No Politician could possibly vote against the Port Security Bill. WE WE'RE ALL RAIL ROADED by pricks. Vote them all out, we're sick and tired of stunts like this.

  • The amendment, which was STRICTLY ABOUT GAMING (the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act) passed with a majority of both parties, The vote on the amendment had nothing to do with national security. Google "Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act" and see:

    Democrats For: 115 Against: 76 Not Voting 10

    Republicans For: 201 Against: 17 Not voting 12

    Total For 317 Against 93 Not Voting: 22

    Hardly a railroad.

  • Ron Paul did.

  • And if you had watched the entire video, this point would be made apparent. Representative Berkley says herself: "I will vote for this bill because it addresses important national security issues." Sneaking the anti-gambling portion into an important bill like this ensures that no one will be willing to vote against the bill as a whole in order to protest a completely unrelated portion of it.

  • AMC you and I are right and Plato is an extremely narrow minded moron.

  • Plato193, the reason why Democrats voted in favor was because anyone who voted against would have been attacked for voting against a bill that would provide support for our troops. This is why the attachment of the anti-gambling portion was so clever: no one could attack that portion of the bill without voting against the bill as a whole. This is shady conservative action at its finest.

  • Just for you, I double checked this again. The amendment, which was just the part about gambling, passed with bi-partisan support. This speech is a bunch of political hooey. Get your facts straight. It is easy to do these days.

  • Wow I completely forgot about you haha. AMC Soldier is telling you the same things I was and you still don't listen. I can't stand people like you because you care more about playing politics to get what you want rather than doing what's right. Deception is not a good way to set laws. Otherwise what is the point of having a democracy???

  • I'll try one more time. The AMENDMENT, which was JUST ABOUT GAMING and NOT ABOUT PORT SECURITY, passed with bipartisan support (a majority of Democrats AND Repbulicans) in the house. This was not a vote about national security, it was JUST ABOUT the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Check the vote. You can google it yourself.

  • Just for you, I'll repeat myself: I'm not arguing that it passed with bipartisan support. I'm saying that the REASON WHY it passed was because of shady political maneuvering: no Dem could vote against it without going on record as voting for a bill that supported the troops (which is political suicide). Think critically Plato!

  • After discussing this with another YouTuber, I thought it would be informative to check the vote on the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act.

    Democrats For: 115 Against: 76 Not Voting 10

    Republicans For: 201 Against: 17 Not voting 12

    Total For 317 Against 93 Not Voting: 22

    Both parties voted in favor of this amendment!!!!!!!

    Information available on the Washington Post web site.

    This video is a load of crap.

  • f u you political pompus pricks....you better ban the lottery too.

  • Wow! They are still allowing USA online poker players at Full Tilt Poker. They offer a matchup bonus up to 600$ if you use bonuscode POKERHOTS

  • You go girl. Get em!!

  • Bill Frist and those like him are an embarrassment to real Americans. What a piece of garbage.

  • Now the Democrats are trying to make the world a better place for gambling addicts.

  • What is wrong with you? Did you not listen to her? Regardless of your feelings of gambling...They through this ban as a matter of port security when it actually has nothing to do with it. It's a very shaddy move, and even if you are a close minded religious nut which it sounds like you are, government and religion DO NOT mix. Besides this women is a republican so you can't blame democrats. You're comment was ignorant is sooo many ways!

  • 1. Shelley Berkeley is a Democrat, not a Republican. I don't know how you could miss that one. From a state where gambling is a huge industry, by the way.

    2. "Religious nut" sounds like an ad hominum attack which has no place in intelligent or informed debate.

    3. Attaching amendments such as this to bills is done by both parties. It may be a "shaddy" move, but it isn't unusual.

    4. Gambling addiction is a terrible thing. I stand by my comment.

  • 1. Ok.

    2. We're on youtube.

    3. Just because something may be done often doesn't mean it should be done. Online gambling has nothing to do with port security and doesn't belong in this bill. Part of the reason they did this was because Casino's are loosing money. If I want to gamble online then I don't want the government telling me what I can and can't do with my money.

  • Oh, by the way, there are some places in the country where duly elected governments have banned gaming. Agree or not, it is all legal. Online gaming is one way to end run around local laws. If you want to play poker , find some friends and play.

  • 4. Gambling addiction is a terrible thing...however, that was not you're comment. Do you honestly believe dem. are responsible for invidual addictions? Also, do you think that everyone that plays online poker is an addict to poker, or maybe they just enjoy the game? Don't ban something from everybody because a few people are addictded. Look at alcohol. Bottom line is, it wasn't done for the right reasons and it's wrong.

  • Hey, if you are over 21 and you want to gamble responsibly, go ahead. Online, any person of any age can gamble. Sorry, you can live without online gaming. We are not talking about online Chess here... I believe Democrats are just trying to play politics here. If the Republicans tried to promote the gaming industry Democrats would complain about that. That is politics

  • First of all you can't gamble online at any age. That is illegal regardless and online poker sites restrict people under 18 from playing with real money. And you want to talk about "playing politics", that is all you are doing by defending this because you have nothing to say about what it was to do with port security. You're playing politics in order to ban something you have a personal issue with.

  • If gambling was legal, there is no way to keep children of any age from gambling, unlike a casino where there are rules about such things. Surely you got that. I will not reply to you any more since it is evident that 1. you desire to gamble online regardless of.. well, of anything and 2. you don't understand the politics of amending legislation as it is practiced by Republicans and Democrats alike.

  • 1. There are still rules about it online too. They won't let you sign up if your bank account is resgistered as a minor. If people find other ways to abuse it then that's not my problem. Not to mention that's a serperate issue then the origional topic here.

  • 2. I understand that gambling was banned for the wrong reasons because of people like you, for reasons I have previously stated. It won't last long and will ammened soon. I'm sure democrats and republicans alike don't support gambling addictions.

  • I apologize for this reply, if fact the port security bill did pass with the Internet gaming provisions. As it turns out, the bill did NOT make any gambling activities illegal. It just made it possible to enforce existing laws against international online gambling. It passed a congress controlled in both houses by Democrats. The NFL was a big supporter. Google and see...

  • get your facts strate before you make more of an ass of your self....second thought keep talking.... it's quite comical.

  • May facts are all straight. I have chosen to check them out rather than rely on this video. It is easy to check out congressional votes these days. Google "Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act" and see. Agree or disagree with the bell, this is a bipartisan initiative.

  • there are bigger issues in this country then online gambling

    so gtfo faggots.

  • Partisan games like this are played by both parties. Deomcrats tack all sorts of nonsence on to bills all the time. Personally, I think billss should be one issue per, none of this multi stuff for either party.

  • the reason they stoped playing poker on the internet because the goverment isnt getting none of the cash.. duh?

  • its pathetic? Why ban online gaming on america? some people make a living from this? why take that away from some people, its pathetic to ban online gaming and sooner it later its simply got to come back, europe should get thier beaks involved.

  • Any true republican would be outraged by the idea of government telling them what card games they can and can't play. These ppl who outlawed on line poker are not true to republican values they are religious extremists who want to legislate morality!!

  • Very true. Well said.

  • what a bitch

  • Typical Americans, always have to be extrem

  • only in america

  • Senator Bill Frist is a Fraud and a Fake!

  • What are the democrats doing now they are in power?

  • Americans can still play online poker. This law does nothing. Sites such as Pokerstards, Ultimate bet, Full Tilt, Absolute, and Bodog still accepts US players. its not over yet.

  • Pokerstars.

  • The lady is right.Fuck the religious freaks

  • What there gods dont exits ? then your god doesnt exit aswell , cause our god is just and 1 the same.

    ( this goes for jew - moslim - christian and katholhic. )

  • Jesus she's so pale... But obviously she's right.

  • fuck the government! stupid assholes! this lady is right

  • Too bad religious people must ruin all our fun. They should just loosen up and realize their Gods don't exist.

  • americans can still game online. for several free online hundred dollar bankrolls just search for "free poker money" and click on the video "free poker bankroll, no deposit"

  • Democracy down the crapper. Corrupt politicians

  • pokerplayersalliance dot org

    -join to help bring online poker back!!

  • Way to go A-holes now I have to drop a 100 dollars a pop to play poker in a casino instead of dropping 5 dollars a time to play poker games online.

  • damn straight... fuck the greedy elephants... drinkin all the water out the bucket, ima proud democrat (aka jackass 2 sum bitches)we drink... and we still have the water left 4 the rest of the pack!!

  • Quoted For Fucking Truth

  • I will never vote Republican again and I sure hope to get a Dem Pres and a Dem Sen. in 2008. Go Dems.

  • republicans suck - morally backwards, they torture and authorize unethical wars and are greedy bastards, while they try to stop stupid things like online gaming.

  • america ay, land of the free.....hmmmm maybe "land of the nothing for free", or "land of the free to do nothing". As the beasty boys say, 'you gotta fight for your right to party'. good luck to your poor poor people who have to put up with USA congress's shitty laws, next....Ban wanking, ban booze again, ban sex, ban being white, I'm pretty sure due to this comment, I will be banned from entering USA. Oh well, your loss USA congress, your loss.

  • Ms. Berkeley speaks the truth. Fukc those congress jerks this BS was just pork that they couldn't get passed otherwise. Now the only way to hit the WSOP is fly to Vegas instead of knowing beforehand that you're actually in it via qualifying satellites. Now you burn $ on flights, hotels etc. before you even know if you're going to play. PS: It's the right wing funamentalist morons who want to outlaw everything fun they can kiss my ass biatches!
