If you are talking about Bush, then your statement is false. Bush has vetoed nine bills to date. Clinton vetoed 37.

First: Wikipedia is not what you should use as it can be changed at any time


Second: Are you supporting Bush?


Third: He vetoed a law that would help sick children. I'd call that a good law, and a bad decision.

First: Bush actually did have one of the lowest veto records of any President, he's only just begun vetoing. But also his party had the Congress for 6 years...

Second: Don't support Bush.

Third: Yes, he is a twat.

First: Okay, how about this site?

http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0801767.html

It's from the Office of the Clerk.

Second: I don't recall saying I supported Bush. He's not a true Conservative. He's made that fact well-known in his second term.

Third: SChip is a good program. The bill the Dems tried to push through was ridiculous:

"All three network newscasts ran brief reports on the House vote. ABC World News reported Bush vetoed the bill "because he said it was being expanded to cover children who aren't really disadvantaged. And he said it would cause too many middle class families to turn away from private health insurance in favor of the government's plan." The CBS Evening News said, "Six million poor children receive health insurance under" SCHIP. The vetoed bill "would have added four million more, including some from middle-income families." NBC Nightly News noted "the bill had bipartisan support."

That's from http://www.usnews.com/usnews/politic...tin_071019.htm

Big Government = Bad.

Middle class families don't need SChip insurance. They can pay for it. Hell, I pay for it. Plenty.

Bush...well i admire him as a human being. But i dislike him as a politician. I don't know much about that Bill. But if someone where to veto a bill like that, is for many reasons. Perhaps we cannot afford that Bill...Maybe because of the economy.

I'm a self-proclaimed liberal

Obama is an idiot. "Change, change, change" with no substance isn't a good platform.

Clinton is not her husband, and I don't like her, but she's better than Obama. Barely. She at least has substantive platforms, and foreign policy that doesn't suck.

Both Democrats are totally wrong in Iraq, and somewhat wrong with their foreign policy. Joe Biden was right, they are not. John McCain is better than them in foreign policy, where I feel the President always is more powerful.

They all suck. Joe Biden for President, 2012, after McCain wins?

Obama or McCain. I'm loving Obama and I think he can give us a new world image, plus he seems like a calm cool individual who believes in what he does. McCain is killing me right now, I love the guy, but he's veered of his straight talk express ways. He's moved off his independent ways too now, he's become a complete Republican. I've stopped liking him because of that, but I think he's only doing it to get elected and afterwards he will return to his old independent self.

For the record, I'm a moderate independent. Party politics blow.
