Frist - Contributions from Harrahs...

[ajpoker]

If Frist thinks gambling is immoral and the devil, then why did he take contributions from Harrahs?

Line number 13.

The organizations themselves did not donate, rather the money came from the organization's PAC, its individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families.

This doesn't mean that Harrahs had a meeting and decided to contribute. Regardless, he shouldn't have accepted that money knowing the relationship the contributor had with a gambling organization.

Georgia,

That statement applies to all donations --

Do you really think Harrah's never had a meeting to decide to contribute to political entities involved in legislating in their arena??

Most of the contributors to Harrah's Entertainment PAC are senior management - not blackjack dealers putting their week's wages towards a "good cause":

He will just say he has a drinking problem and thats why, and then he will realize that didn't work so he will blame in on being molested as a child...thats how these guys work right?

But they aren't making excuses...just if you see those as one then thats ok...

It's ok to gamble at the casinos. It's when you start playing poker online when the poker chips start clogging up the internet tubes. And we all know the internet is made up of a series of tubes....

And when it gets clogged, thats when the horses come into play. We need the horses to push the chips through and clear things up again...
