It is shameful that a bill of this sort came out of a Republican congress. Dubya has been so patient with this bunch of goons. Although the Constitution allows him to veto any legislation he wants, for whatever reason he wants, he has not used this power simply to reinforce his bravado or as a means of holding other issues hostage. He respects that Congress is democratically elected and represents the will of the people. I believe it is for that reason that he has used the veto pen sparingly. This bill, however, stands for everything that would make a moral conscience shudder.
I'll bet nobody here even remembers the "first veto" of any other president? Dubya's makes history. I can't even begin to describe how proud of him I am.
