Yah, sure! Should have vetoed the farm bill and education over some congressional largess that was surely despicable but could not be corrected due to a lack of votes to change it. The vetoes would have been overridden and the political damage certain.

Why don't you blame him for global warming and the stock market like the rest of the Bush haters around this forum.

Why don't you claim the war is about oil or bailing out his old man's mistakes.

I'll be lurking around to respond to that too.

My my my how naive you are. What "political damage"? How would vetoing two pork laden rapes of the American public hurt Bush? His supporters would have cheered. His enemies would still hate him, but those conservatives in the middle would have come more into the Bush/Republican camp. As it is, his core supporters still love him (you can see their mindless droolings on the "day in the life..." thread). His enemies still hate him - he can't give enough of other peoples' money away to out squander and out plunder a Democrat. Core Democrats will always hate a Republican, no matter how socialistic he is. And those conservatives who were hoping for a change from the plunder and squander mentality in Washington are alienated. The political damage was done by Bush not vetoing those two bills.

I think "global warming" is a complete fraud perpetrated by socialists to try to expand government power (it's woking pretty well so far) and the stock market problems are due largely to government regulation and the fed.

Why don't you claim that Bush walks on water, raises the dead, changes water into wine? These are no more false than the claim that he is a conservative.
