I know,I listened to his comments and chastisements last week and it did give me hope.

I believe the last minute omnibus bill and the add
ons plus the war funding needed,had Bush in a box.Vetoing the bill and shutting down the government was not an option.I don't absolve Bush of all blame,however.

I'd like to see him publically shame them into passing a budget before the last minute.The bully pulpit needs polishing up and used more.

.I don't understand all the machinations of the Congress,but enough to know why we needed line item vetoes.
