NO QUESTION, a devastating "Turn of Events,"--& I am TRULY WORRIED that "we" have been "sold out;"--but REMEMBER, the "Bushies" play CHESS, NOT "CHECKERS!"
I'm willing to "cut them a little slack" on this issue; "We'll See!"

Sorry Doc...can't swallow this one.
I'm a Bush supporter but this is a matter of integrity, principle and keeping his sacred oath.
The biggest problem I have with Bush signing CFR is that it places him on the same level as Clinton. There's no difference in my mind between Clinton saying he couldn't do the right thing (fight terrorism) because the public wouldn't support him and Bush saying he can't veto CFR because whatever.
A leader does the right thing because he's a man of principle and a statesman. Bush is displaying NONE of these qualities in this act of submission.

If Bush had merely vetoed this it would come back and keep coming back again and again and again. Remember, McConnel has been fighting this for over 10 years. Once it's declared unconstitutional by SCOTUS it is dead, done, over, no longer viable. SCOTUS will drive the silver stake through the heart of McCain/Finegold once and for all.
