You make an excellent point. Why is it up to GW to veto this mess? Why aren't we asking Congress why they passed this mess? Why aren't we asking why the Senate allowed it to pass? Where is their accountability?

I don't get it.. I really don't.

I'm also wondering how many people posting here contacted their elected representatives to tell them what they thought about voting for this bill. I just wonder.

To answer some of your questions:

Why is it up to GW to veto this mess?
Bush took an oath to uphold the constitution of the US. If he really believes parts of the bill are unconstitutional, as his statement last night indicates, he has a duty to act on his oath and veto the bill.

I did. I emailed and called NM Senator Domenici's office, as did several others on this board from NM. I was polite but got the brush off in my phone call, and Domenici voted Aye in favor of CFR.

"Why is it up to GW to veto this mess?"

Why should he sign a bill that he acknowledges has Constitutional problems?
