The end of online gambling is near

sorry pal you better learn how govt works. This has nothing to do with Obama right now. All this crap was started under Bush and once it became law, it didnt matter who was in office, the law had to be carried out. Only way it could be stopped,is to repeal the law, so learn how the fuck govt works before running your dumb punk ass mouth. The republicans and bush started this crap, so blame the real fuckers who did this to all of us.

Like i said only way to stop this shit is for the democrats to repeal this bogus bill that shopuld have never been passed,but the dems dont have enough votes to do it. In fact if you ever followed any of this stuff, you would have known barney frank and another democrat tried repealing this fuckin bill when Obama first got in office, but they couldnt do it.

Religous fuckin republicans did this shit and now its just being played out.

Obama admin is just carrying out the laws that were created by those republican fuckers and cant just not carry out the laws because they dont agree with them.

You cant even be a little serious with this post. Man just once i would love to see a republican say the republicans fucked us up.

This shit was added to the bill in the middle of the night and there was no way the democrats could have not voted yes for the bill because of all the security stuff that was all part of the port security bill. The republicans knew that they could have put anything in the bill and it would have been pased by the democrats.

So for once lay the blame on who did this crap to all of us. The republicans.

The Obama admin has nothing to do with this shit and the justice dept is only carrying out the laws that are on the books now with this crap.  Some of the things they are going after now had dates when they would start being enforced.  The justice dept cant just ignore laws that are being broken because they dont agree with them. Until congress changes this shit, no matter what President is in office, their justice dept is going to enforce laws that are to be enforced.

Thank you bush, kyl and goodlatte, hope all 3 rot in hell

people should be betting with locals and playing poker over someones house for the amount that you want to play for.(ie if you want to play for 500 buy in find that crew, if you want 50 buy in find that crew etc) smoke cigars. have fun. like my grandfather did.

i think the old way is better.

 Agree Ds.

Dont know if this was answered, but here goes....

Because the poker sites are moronic.  They made it the US jurisdiction because they violated the UIGEA which strictly prohibits financial transactions.  The sites apparantly bought banks, bank employees etc - on US soil.  Just stupid.

That is the jurisdiction.  The US is not going after them for hosting a poker site, they are going after them for violating US law on US soil - something you would think these sites would never do - considering they have a multimillion dollar golden goose that can only be killed by stupidity and greed.
