"WASHINGTON - President Bush, in a sharp confrontation with Congress, on Wednesday vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have dramatically expanded children's health insurance."
This guy really don't think about the future and health of the next generation. If you want productive country, then you can't have with disabled nation and its citizens.

LOL, yeah right. You guys are probably soo young that your parents still probably have you on their health insurance. Right?? You probably don't have any clue what health insurance cost. You will find out someday. Oh yeah.

Yes. He did exactly the right thing. The bill would have provided coverage for children in families making $80,000 a year. This is bad politically for Bush(because most people only hear "Bush doesn't like children") but it was absolutely the right thing to do.
Once again, Bush stands on principle and what is right for the country NOT what sounds good.

For the hundredth time today; it was a terrible bill. Try reading up on it and then explain how a child whose family income is 80k is in any way impoverished, or how a 25 year old adult is a "child". Stop being so naive. It's that lack of education on your part (not understanding the nature of the legislation) that leads to Americans being over taxed and contributes to economic decline. Wake up and thank God you have a President who indeed cares about the future of the country.

You're not going to have "a disabled nation and it's citizens" just because some people don't have to pay ALL of some other people's bills....
YES, Bush did the RIGHT THING.
There are more parents who are taxpayers than there are parents who participate in this program. The money saved, we can spend on OUR children.
So, he vetoed the bill "for the children."
So there - PAY YOUR OWN STINKING BILLS!
Please see my "about me" section, and see my questions about this issue and about why the government should provide me with free single malt scotch. Hey, I don't "have" any - and some people do "have" some - that's not "fair" - the government should provide me with a bottle of Oban - I demand it in the name of fairness! I have kids! A free Oban program would be "for the children!"

Yup, they wanted a confrontation, and now they have one. Once they waste a bunch of time and fail to get the override votes, and get all done using children as a wedge to try to make the President look bad, maybe they will fund the SCHIP program.

Yes I do. We really need to make sure the poor that the original bill was intended to help are taken care of before allowing children from upper middle class families to take part.........
