The Middle East is burning, the economy sucks, yet the GOP Nanny Staters want to spend time on fantasy sports. I wonder if Adelson worried about people gambling on fantasy sports instead of in LV gave Upton a call. The "Baptists-Bootlegger" coalition strikes away to take away freedom.

[Arm_Bears]

Glad all of the really serious problems have been solved.

What a bunch of friggin’ morons.

And they expect us to take them seriously.

[Afterguard]

Precisely. Beat me to it by four minutes.

Damn fools.

[BerniesFriend]

Please make it stop!!!

[C. Edmund Wright]

If this is hurting his casino business, why doesn’t Adelson GET IN on the fantasy sports stuff instead of trying to stop it? He certainly has millions lying around with which to launch his own Fan Duel type site.

...skirting gambling laws...

What that always means is that they are following gambling laws.

Like when you "skirt traffic laws" by going the speed limit.

[Alberta's Child]

You are absolutely correct on the Adelson angle, and dead wrong on the "nanny-state" angle.

This is nothing to so with morality, and everything to do with protecting major interests in the casino industry.

If he’s so concerned about this then let him call for a ban on lotteries first . . . at least these sites require you do some homework.

Reacting with limitless courage, the Congress of the United States moves swiftly in the deflate gate non-scandal to protect gamblers on football games. Now Congress moves to protect establishment gambling companies from Internet gamblers, no doubt who bet on football games.

There is no end to the good Congress can do.

[Don Corleone]

I'd be willing to bet (?) that one of the "Families" is controlling all these.

D.C.

Stupid morons. These idiot probably do not even realize how petty this makes them look.

[piytar]

The Party of Stupid.

[Captainpaintball]

This piece of shit, fred Upton, REFUSES to protect the electrical grid from sabotage or EMP, but he has time to interfere in fantasy football.

.

Planned Parenthood Senate/House hearings with ALL videos shown to America ?

Not convenient ...

[lodi90]

The GOP held a hearing on youth soccer last week.

[all the best]

All politicians care about is expanding their power and influence. Government will always grow. Until collapse.

[zzwhale]
