[In its statement on the veto threat, the White House said the measure would "restrict the president's authority to protect Americans effectively from terrorist attack and bringing terrorists to justice."]
Well roger that! Looks like congress has finally passed the first bill that GW will veto.

If it does anywhere near this well in the House then it's override city.

The thing is, even if Bush does veto it (and I'm not convinced that he will, but time will tell). There are still way too many Yea votes for this to be able to override the veto. In this type of situation, seriously, what can we really do? Outside of speaking at the ballot box, of course.
