What did you do: sleep through P.O.D.?? Do you not understand the processes involved? Your belief that the Constitution has been raped will not be listened to by the likes of the House members and Senators who passed this bill. Unequivocal proof of blatant unconstitutionality is required. The president had no way of SUMMARILY vetoing this bill. What did you think the whole Enron buildup was about? It was about creatng a political climate which would guarantee the passage of CFR.
Join in the fight to get the SCOTUS to hear the case. That is part of the process. That's where we are right now. At this point in time, I'm still willing to support the president's decision.
Exactly how much 'proof' do you need? It sounds to me like what you're really saying is that the political climate was such that Bush would have had to really, really believe it was unconstitutional before he vetoed it. Aside from the obvious answer to that, which is Bush himself said it was unconstitutional, you still sound a lot like James Carville and his reasoning for not impeaching Clinton.
I guess I just don't understand why Bush gets a pass. All I've heard so far is that Congress had a responsibility and the Supreme Court will bail him out. Both shine a spotlight on his lack of courage.
I don't deny that this was a brillant political move. I just don't care all that much.
