Texas Dolly and Kid Poker on Politics
If you keep up with Daniel Negreanu's blog with any regularity then you'll know he's a big Obama supporter and a huge Hillary hater. Another guy who frequently shares his political views is Doyle Brunson. Doyle has kept a more open mind during this Presidential race which has caused some back and forth email bickering between the two.
This is an email conversation Doyle and Daniel had which Doyle published on his blog a couple of days ago.
Daniel: Obama has accomplished 50 times more than Hillary in the Senate – in much less time. He, from the beginning, was against the war in Iraq – Hillary voted for it. He is by far the candidate that would change the world view of America. The less people that hate America the less enemies you create around the world. He has a lot of work to do cleaning up George W’s mess.
Doyle: I don’t want to continue these discussions because I think you are the naive one when you say things like this. Obama’s record is a disaster and not anywhere close to Hillary, much less 50 times better. You are one hard-headed Canadian and won’t change one idea when you think you are right. At least I look at both sides and say, “Well, maybe.” I guess that is why you are an excellent poker player – you go with your gut. I often wondered where Todd came from. Now I know your parents had another baby boy and slipped him into the Brunson crib because you sound exactly like him.
Brunson concludes his blog with this little gem:
"By the way, Daniel, as my son Todd told you, go back to Canada. You aren’t even a USA Citizen! "
