I don't fault Bush for the UN speech (assuming he's willing to go all the way if the UN fails again), but I do think he's still way too easy on the Democrats.

Take the Homeland Security bill, for example. The worker flexibility issue should be an easy slam-dunk for the administration, but instead they seem to be allowing Daschle to run around calling it a "power grab" without a sufficiently outraged response. The simple answer, which should be shouted from the rooftops until Daschle is embarrassed into shutting up, is that the Democrats are putting the security of their union buddies' jobs before the security of the nation. It's short, pithy and true. Nevertheless, it appears that the Democrats may force Bush to veto the whole damned bill over the issue, or sign it without the increased flexibility — a loss in either case.

A veto is as loud as it gets. He's made it clear umpteen times that he will veto and why he will veto. If America is unaware of those two facts, it is because somebody doesn't want them to know.

Now who might that be?
