Certainly not. The point was made that Bush should sign CFR because the House and Senate already did, therefore it's 'not his fault' that it is now destined to go to the Supreme Court.

My point was that he Bush had the opportunity to veto something he considered to be unconstitutional and didn't. It matters not what happened in Congress.

The reason I get so worked up about it is because during the primary and in the general election, then-candidate Bush repeatedly vowed to veto any bill that came before him containing language that infringed on First Amendment protections. Well, here it is, and what he said he'd do is not what happened.

Now consider what happened on the talking head shows tonight. Dick Morris on Fox was representative of how the Dems will play this thing. Morris said that the GOP didn't give Jeffords near enough of what he wanted and caused him to bolt; now they are dissing McCain by giving him what he wanted but not letting him in on the ceremony. The upshot being that regardless of what really happened, the pundits are still intent on bashing Bush no matter what he did.....
