President Bush ridiculed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Thursday _though not by name — for saying that the $22 billion that separates congressional Democrats from the White House on spending bills is a "very small difference."
Lawmakers have increased the president's $433 billion request for non-defense programs by about 5 percent.
In prior years, GOP-controlled congresses denied many of the same cuts.

Nanci Pelosi is easy to ridicule. She is a joke just like most of the upper crust of Democrats today. Sometimes the less Congress does, the better off we all are.

So is your question particularly "ought to American human beings veto each and every president that veto's "each and every" invoice sent to him?" based on your question you appear to be a guy or woman who follows blindly, and an intensive who's against something republicans do...blindly. You possibly evaluate FDR and JFK plenty better presidents than Bush. I do too. yet while your degree of a president is composed on form of votes, then you definitely actual LOVE Pres Bush.

Interesting. Perhaps you didn't intend to paste the line about the Republican controlled congresses denying the same cuts. Probably, since you left out the part explaining that Bush is now complaining about the Democratic congress reversing budget cuts he had made, even though Republicans had tried to stop those same cuts. Seems his problem isn't with the congressional actions, but rather with the fact that congress is now controlled by Democrats. He just can't stop playing politics with the good of the nation at stake, can he?

I am moving out where there are no people, booby trapping my place and sleeping very lightly. Bush is having a nervous breakdown, and no one seems to see this. Afraid? You better be, he is going to get us all killed!

Bush is like a spoiled child who always wants his way, and we are as much to blame for that as anyone for giving him his way too much.
