He’s been part of a super-scam since he entered congress.

The UIGEA never made anything illegal that wasn’t illegal already. So the fact that he is claiming that his act will create an exemption to the ban on online gambling is patently false. There is no ban on online gambling. The UIGEA did NOT ban online gaming.
Although, people keep calling it a “ban” and it might as well be one if people keep calling it that.
Frank is full of shit on several different levels.
There’s abolutely no reason for anyone to cheerlead this bill, unless you’re an indian gaming company rep. I have no idea what he’s telling the banking industry, but there is no repeal happening right now.
Barney Frank should be ingored by anyone who knows what the words “ban” or “repeal” mean.
