But it doesn't have "paycheck protection" for workers - a condition that Bush once said had to be in a bill for him to sign it.

He took care of that with his first executive order upon taking office.

Nope, a judicial activist knocked it down, my wife is in a union and adamantly pro life. We have been fighting this battle a long time. She has, to this day, no say in what the union does with her money. In fact the AFL/CIO has just increased the required tribute dramatically to defeat republicans in Novemeber.

I liken CFR to McCainenstein's monster- to veto it, will just give the Dems the ability to keep applying the electrodes and allowing it to metasticize. By signing it, Bush has just driven a stake through McCainenstein's monster. Look at the 3 latest Supreme Court decisions-I am even more confident. The time to strike, is now and not wait, until the temperament of the Supremes is akin to that of Pat Leahy. If McCain goes over to the dark side,officially, we may have a tough time regaining the Senate. This issue is too important to postpone.

No he didn't. All he did with that EO was to make government contractors post a notice that union workers could get a refund of union dues that were used for political campaigning - if they dared confront the union.

Paycheck protection means that the union can't spend any portion of a workers union dues for political purposes UNLESS THEY GET WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE WORKER.

Big difference.
