"W" has sent written word to Frist - if it is not a "clean" bill, he will veto it!

Dims have no option but to try to put every amendment they can think of from continued unemployment checks to AWB continuance to this silly Ted Kennedy bloviation as riders to this bill that is almost guaranteed a passing vote (expecially since Dasshole himself is touting the bill as a good law - of course, he is running for re-election this year, also)

So far, all attempts to muddy the bill with Dim amendments has failed. Should one actually succeed and be attached - "W's" written directive says he will veto it!

Additionally, this bill must still go through the House and DeLay has promised it will never see the floor to be voted on if it contains the AWB. I suspect Kennedy's "cop killer bullet ban" would get the same treatment from DeLay.

Has that been documented anywhere?

Source? I had heard that Bush had encouraged a clean bill only because he was concerned that it might otherwise be delayed. I never heard of the veto threat.

That is BS! Bush has not vetoed a single bill his entire term. Rove will never let him give the Democrats the argument that the only bill he ever vetoed was one for 'killing our children' or something like that.
