Bush Will Sign Campaign Finance Bill Mon Mar 25,10:19 AM ET SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (Reuters) -
President Bush (news - web sites) said on Sunday he would sign landmark campaign finance reform legislation with only a slight hesitation, reflecting his ongoing concerns about the measure.
"I won't hesitate" signing it, Bush said at a joint news conference with Salvadoran President Francisco Flores as the president wrapped up a four-day trip to Latin America. "It will probably take about three seconds to get to the W, I may hesitate on the period, and then rip through the Bush." The legislation to reduce the influence of money in politics won final congressional approval last week, and Bush has pledged to sign it soon. The bill would ban unlimited contributions known as "soft money" to national political parties, limit such donations to state and local parties and restrict broadcast ads by outside groups shortly before elections.
I'm a member of the NRA, amongst several other gorups who supported this SHMUCK and who will now suffer for it.
Never again will I vote for a RINO.
I expected more from the President on this issue, like, say, fulfilling his campaign promise not to sign it unless his terms were met. On top of that, he's currently meeting with the money-grubbing Latin American leaders, all of whom are supporting the UN Global Tax proposals.
AND, the Congress is on Easter Break, right? Where's the recess appointments?
Oh yeah, and I just heard on CBS news that the White House is curretly pressing Israel to lift Yasser Arafat's travel limitations...
Just what the hell is going on in our White House right now??????
Sounds like typical republican to me. Do enough small stuff that is considered a bit conservative with one hand, to please most of the voters, while pushing us hard with the other hand in sync with the democrats right into a tyrannical, socialist state.
Alan Keyes looks better and better all the time. The only reason he couldn't win was because everyone was saying he couldn't win. It had little to do with reality. If all the real conservatives who supported Bush had worked to get Alan elected I daresay things would be a little different. Change isn't easy folks, we're going to have to work at it if we don't want the two wings of the same bird of prey beating us into submission, slowly on the one side and rapidly on the other.
