Hopefully Bush will veto this travesty.

Already said he wouldn't.

Do you have a link? I don't believe that the President has ever made a definitive statement regarding what he would do with this bill. Trial balloons only, AFAIK. I could be wrong, however. If you have a link to the contrary, please post it.

This from CNN.:

"In a statement released by the White House, Bush said he will sign the bill despite some misgivings about it.

"The reforms passed today, while flawed in some areas, still improve the current system overall," he said. "The legislation makes some important progress on the timeliness of disclosure, individual contribution limits and banning soft money from corporations and labor unions."

However, the president said the bill, which most of his fellow Republicans in Congress opposed, raises "some legitimate constitutional questions." He also said he continues to believe "the best reform is full and timely disclosure of campaign contributions."

---

If it has Constitutional questions, then he should uphold his oath and veto the bill.

If he signs it, someone needs to ping Claire Wolfe and ask her if it's time yet?
