Adelson's anti-web gaming coalition announces list of backers

UPDATE: Want to know how easy it was for me to find one of these groups that hates gambling in general, not just web gaming, and believes it causes addictions and social ills? 

This easy. "The Louisiana Family Forum has a long history of opposing gambling..."

The religious right does not like gambling, unless, of course, it's Ralph Reed and Jack Abramoff pitting one interest against the other.

Trust me, folks: This Louisiana group is just the tip of the iceberg. The religious right hates gambling, so if Adelson & Co. want support, they are drawing from a pool that sees very little distinction between land-based and web-based.
