News just in from Kentucky that the hearing scheduled for today has been postponed until tomorrow Friday and will be held at 3:30pm.

The court released the following:

“”"Please be advised that the Commonwealth of Kentucky we will be conducting settlement conferences tomorrow with a number of defendants in the above captioned matter. In light of those conferences, the Court has continued tomorrow’s hearing, and rescheduled it for Friday, September 26, 2008 at 3:30 pm est. At that time the Court will consider the claims against the remaining, non-settling defendants. An order from the Court reflecting this change will follow.”"”

Also today it became clear that this action did not come from the attorney general of Kentucky as first reported, but from the Governor of Kentucky Steve Beshear (D).

    From wikipedia:

    “Despite his support for casino gambling, Beshear is a staunch advocate of a statewide prohibition of online poker. In 2008, he pushed a case through a Kentucky circuit court ordering seizure of 141 Internet gaming sites, including all U.S. facing poker-only sites. Beshear stated that his intention is to force these sites to stop offering services to Kentuckians.”

    Sure, he wants to keep all the money for himself.

    What a hypocrite.
