There's been a push, for awhile, from Republicans to open up online gambling but it doesn't seem to have the support to get off the ground.

It's fricking absurd that online gambling is illegal in a country that's supposed to be "free." I guess the issue involves tax filing, but I don't see why FullTilt/PokerStars couldn't just start sending out I-9 forms.

Lol no, it's the Republicans (mainly one Bill Frist) to blame for being in this mess. Barney Frank a Dem seems to be the only person in the Senate really trying to push online poker.
