Bush agrees....
----
It is hard to tell who is really the President of this country at times. Bush seems to agree to EVERYTHING -- no matter how bad it is for America -- as long as it looks good on his legacy or so the MSM cannot rant about it.
Another huge negative for the Bush legacy. No, McCain is just a political opportunist playing both sides as usual, and just getting away with what he can -- this is Bush's fault, like the signing of the McCain-Feingold Bill (another huge anti-Constitutional negative for America) -- the buck stops in the White House --
Bush's domestic performance continues to decline even more.
McCain is solely to blame for this.
People that blame Bush for this are missing the point. The white house wanted nothing to do with this. They sent Cheney out to stop McCain saying it was infringing on executive authority.
McCain said he would attach the torture ban to every bill until he got his way. The house had a test vote yesterday with over two thirds support.
The White House was beat by McCain. McCain had the votes to overcome a veto. The White House is just using this as as face saving.
The president has no power when congress has the votes to overcome his veto.
The blame goes all to McPain here.
