A Day in the Life of President Bush (photos): 7.19.06
yahoo.com, whitehouse.gov ^ | Wednesday July 19, 2006 | GretchenM

Posted on 07/19/2006 3:22:36 PM PDT by GretchenM

Defying the will of Congress (remember these votes in November!), President Bush sent a veto message (read the president's message here), that he would not sign HR 810, the "Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act of 2005."

President Bush addressed the situation in Lebanon while meeting with members of Congress in the White House.

Secretary of State Rice met at the State Department today: New Zealand's Minister of Foreign Affairs Winston Peres, and Belgium's Foreign Minister Karel De Gucht. Next week she is scheduled to attend Southeast Asia's top security forum.

I haven't heard any prognostications on how much energy there is in Congress to try to override his veto.

Has anyone heard about this?

I don't think they have the votes to override the veto.

Dog, you're getting closer, but no toaster (yet). You need to be either first, or second by ten seconds. I offer this in honor of your diligent effort.

Since I haven't heard any crowing from the Hill, I was hoping that would be the case.

I also wonder just what all this kill-the-embryos voting is for, other than possibly having something to do with November.

Maybe if you can present your case to snugs as to why you deserve it, even though you were 1 minute and 90 seconds behind. ;*)

It was started (and passed) in the house, and voted for unanimously in the senate. The House doesn't think it can raise four more votes to override the veto. Pray.

I think the Dems will try to make political hay out of the veto....but I can't see it going anywhere.

The only thing I heard was that the votes weren't there for a veto. That is not official, however.
