BUt not one VETO. I wonder if a President has ever made it through a whole term without vetoing a single bill?

John Adams, the 2nd President of the United States is the only President to serve a full 4 year term to not use the Veto Pen.
James Garfield was the last not to use it for his Presidency which lasted 4 months before he was assassinated in 1881 I believe.

The only time I have heard of him threatening a veto was over the Veterans bill, allowing disabled vets to collect both their retirement and disability. Too expensive don't ya know. Better to send ten bil to talk africans into keeping their zippers zipped, or loin clothes folded, whatever. Better to send 34 bil in Social Security funds to Mexican invaders over five years, not to mention a trillion for Mars, Bush's native planet.
