I'm only making these points because Bennett was our Drug Czar. Empower America, his group, rails against gambling. I'm only pointing out the utterly obvious, that Mr. Morality doesn't seem to examine his own vices and habits as critically as he does your vices and my vices.
Gambling is a "vice" only if it consumes your entire life and harms yourself or your family. Clearly it's not doing that.
I like Bill Bennett, but I don't take my moral direction from him. Do you?
