Actually, I find the Right's incessant whining about THE VETO 'abit maddening.

Why would a rational person expect the President to veto legislation passed by a REPUBLICAN CONGRESS acting in consultation with the White House?

Additionally, why would any rational person expect the President to behave CONFRONTATIONALLY with Congress when he needs said Congress to FUND the WAR ON TERROR -- his first and really only priority for the last 5 years!

For the next two years, the President must still work with Congress (this time a HOSTILE Congress) so that Congress will continue to FUND the WAR . . . He will have to use his veto powers judiciously ever mindful of his TOP PRIORITY: WINNING THE WAR ON TERROR and PROTECTING THE HOMELAND!!

I sure am glad you said that about the VETO.

I think that all of the time...but, I just have always figured thinking conservatives would figure that out!

LOL
