Did you think he was going to veto the Defense Bill?
Can you tell me how he was going to override the Senate and House overrides of HIS veto?
Right now over 60 % of Americans disagree with John McCain. The President has a live press conference and tells the American people that what John McCain wants is for marines and grunts in the field to have to mirandize terrorist scum. That is what this legislation does, it grants 5th and 14th amendment protections to unlawful combatants. Hell, it might not even be legal to kill them any more unless they shoot first when the courts get done interpreting this garbage.
That's how, he straps on a pair and takes a dman stand.
I've been a supporter of his through thick and thin but now I've about had it. When he endangers soldiers, intel guys and American security for political expedience, I'm done with him.
