A) If it were truly bipartisan, there''d be enough votes to over ride his veto

B) If it were really important (and not just political grandstanding on the part of dems), then they wouldn''t keep attaching it to legislation that he said he would veto.

What part of, ''if you send it to me in its current form I''m gonna veto it'' don''t democrats understand?????

I say, give GWB a 3 bedroom trailer with a payment of $400/mo payment, all the usual bills that we normal people have to pay,(like car payment, car insurance, electricity, water, phone, etc.)with 1-2 kids. Make him get out every day and earn about $550 a week for six months, and then see whether health care should stay or raise and who it includes.

And if Bush had his way, he would even take the troops'' paychecks away.

But the Dems are doing more about our kids than sending them off to war. Tell me, what is Bush''s plan? He has none. And if he actually has one, why is he not sharing it? Because, like his great Social Security robbery, it is full of profit for companies, and completely useless for the people who actually need it.

Even if this was true, it''''s not about wages.
What''''s his job, by the way ? Outing CIA agents ? Get drunk and shoot people in the face ?

Well Al Bore was inventing the internet when he was Veep and now he is a $100 billion billionaire for inventing Global Warming. It sorta makes Cheney look like he hasn''t accomplished much. I''d shoot someone too. Better be a friend though.

What is the poverty level in North Carolina? Can a household income of $17.000 per year feed a family of six?

Nothing will happen to Rove or the other slug, they will find a way to make the charge go away in some secret backdoor deal.

I thought he shot him in the neck...

Anyway,
One thing I''ve learned as a hunter is to NEVER lay my safety in the hands of another. And I''m only in my forties. The man who was shot should have stayed with the party.

The good news of the day, about "good public servants".


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee voted Thursday to hold two top aides to President Bush in contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate in its probe of fired federal prosecutors.

And by the way, has anyone actually read the bill he vetoed, or are people defending the Bush "spin"?

Earns them how? Holding secret policy meetings? Collecting his Halliburton kickbacks? Making sure the rich get richer, and the poor get evicted?

"Of course he vetoed it, there''''s no profit for corporations in helping out needy Americans.

Posted by Fornicario at 11:51 AM : Dec 13, 2007"

I would hardly consider someone of 60k a year a "needy American".

"I don''''t! I don''''t want to pay for adults on a child''''s program and I don''''t want to pay for families that can afford their own health insurance, either.

You already do, unless you think that Cheney is still a kid, within a family that could not pay for health care :

Denying medical coverage to American children is better''''n what he does to Iraqis children.

1000kg JDAM, anyone?
