Good luck getting past an Obama veto, Mr. Minority Leader.

IF Obama wants heat in the White House next winter he’ll go along.

But the Republicans will control the country’s purse strings, if they win in November! What a battle royale that could be!

I am sure there is a creative way around that...just be more creative than the Democrats are on passing it.

Even after Obama is gone, and the GOP takes the Senate, 41 Dem Senators can block most any change. On the other hand, I think a simple majority in the House can strip funding for almost anything. I wish I knew more detail on this.

A presidential veto can be overridden.

no but they can vote to defund it and other little things to hold it up and hope for a change in 2012 to dismantle it
