Unfortunately a clause that was dropped from this Bill which prohibited Criminals from being employed to work in these points of entry to the US, was deleted at the behest of certain Senators.

Thiat clause could have, had it been included, given the Bill massive strength and would have prevented criminal gangs from illegally importing anything they chose, including possibly bombs, weapons, drugs, illegal immigrants.

One wonders what the GOP is up to, seemingly being in bed with criminals, another scandal yet to emerge from the GOP?
Will they never learn?

You know...

Its people like you that give followers of either side a bad name.

You made a fine post, pointing out a great thing. But then you had to go make a snide, hollier than thou, and rather ignorant comment about the "corruption" of the GOP being in bed with "criminals". And suddenly it goes from being a decent post to more partisan shots.

I'm rather upset about this one. The online gambling thing was rather stupid to outlaw and I think could've been handled much better...and at the same time, I don't think that losing that provision was smart. However, I've not read the legislation so I'm not going to fully speak on that completely...you never know what yo'ure not seeing there.

Both parties have corrupt parts of it, both parties have thier fingers in shady dealings (look at Las Vegas for an example of it currently for the other side), and I honestly don't think either PARTY wants to help criminals.

But congrats, if not for the fact I actually heard of this before and was annoyed by it, the end of your post would've just kept another republican ignoring the entire thing instead of honestly being upset at thier party, simply because you've got to throw partisan jabs in that aren't even intellectually honest or fair.

Caine should be here any moment to point out that an informational thread was turned into partisan bickering by a rabid liberal hack.

:mrgreen:

or, probably not.
