In response to the democrats passing their ANTI-TROOP bill, President Bush made a statement from the White House, vowing to veto it. “… [this bill] has no chance of becoming law.” Accompanying the president were members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, families of deployed service members and families of those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom.

Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice met with the Iraq Provincial Reconstruction Team at the State Department.

Press Secretary Tony Snow made an announcement about his health at the end of today’s press briefing. (Transcript)

On a lighter note, President and Mrs. Bush welcomed the family of former President Johnson to the Oval Office for the naming of the Lyndon Baines Johnson Department of Education Building. (Click here for more information)

President Bush was also joined in the White House today by Archbishop Demetrios for the proclamation of March 25, 2007 as National Greek Independence Day, “A National Day of Celebration of Greek and American Democracy”. (Transcript)

I think Dosers need an explanation here. JMHO

I second that.

I just hit abuse and asked the powers that be to remove the question mark that they added to the title.

[ohioWfan]

Is this what we have to put up with now? Snarky editorializing by the mods in OUR title?

I don't think we should have to put up with it, Miss Marple.

But I think I'm beginning to understand some things that I would rather not know about this forum.......

[Kath]

He's not a lame duck and he won't have to veto something that doesn't have a prayer in hell of passing the senate.

[silent_jonny]

("I WILL VETO IT")

Thank you.

Why did you tamper with the title in the first place?

[onyx]

It's removed. Took hitting abuse, but it's removed.

[ohioWfan]

If you hit abuse will the same Mod who (disrespectfully?) changed your title be the one who gets the abuse notice?

(I don't know how these things work).

In that case, what are we waiting for, if the Mod on this beloved thread about our President is anti-Bush? He/she won't necessarily respond to it.....

[silent_jonny]

Yeah ... I'd still like an explanation. And for the mod to identify him/herself.

[ohioWfan]

My question as well.

Glad to see it gone, though.

[silent_jonny]

LOL--now it's in lower-case: ("I will veto it")

Crazy.

[onyx]

(I don't know how these things work).

I don't either. I just know that only Jim and the moderators can delete and edit.

[mystery-ak]

Are the Mods the only ones who can change a title?

[onyx]

Yes, only Jim and the moderators.

[silent_jonny]

Yep. Either a mod or Jim Robinson himself. I don't suspect JimRob though.

[onyx]

I'd like an explanation too. An attempt at comedy or a little "editorializing?"

[ohioWfan]

Was it not originally "I WILL VETO IT!"

Isn't that what you posted, and should it not be returned to the way you posted it??

What is going on here anyway?

[Txsleuth]

You should be grateful you aren't watching H & C...I have about kicked in my TV.

[silent_jonny]

That is cool, Buddy :)

God bless him.

Sorry, The question mark was added by mistake. I have been retyping quotation marks so we don't get the weird characters in their place on the latest posts page.

[ohioWfan]

Why would someone try to be comical at such a critical juncture in our country's history about such an important thing?

That doesn't make sense.

The only thing that makes sense is that the Mod (or whoever altered the title) is taking a jab at our Commander in Chief.

Does it seem that way to you too, or am I just in 'defensive mode?'

[Txsleuth]

Oh...I am glad I didn't see any Bush bashers after that speech he gave today....I might have gotten myself banned.
