Perino: Bush Will Veto SCHIP ‘Quietly’ Without ‘Ceremony’

Both the Senate and the House have passed an expansion of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) with strong bipartisan majorities. In today’s White House press briefing, a reporter said that Democratic leaders would likely be sending the legislation to the President to sign (or, in this case, veto) this afternoon.

White House spokeswoman Dana Perino confirmed that President Bush plans to veto the legislation “tomorrow or so.” When asked whether there will be a ceremony, Perino replied, “I would not anticipate that there would be any ceremony.” She added, “The President will probably veto it quietly.”

I'm sure the the majority of the neocon machinations escape his comprehension.

Dick will explain it to him using small words.

takes money away from his warmongering in Iraq, and now in Iran

Hopefully this will be veto-proof...that would REALLY get the monkey mad...!!!

he'd not sign it either

But it is not veto proof in the house

Boy, they're really losing their theatrical flair.

I cant remember ever feeling represented by either "party"

the Dems shouldn't give him a chance to push this under the rug. They should make sure that they embarrass him beyond all belief on this. Make him look real bad.

I think the Dems should do the ceremony thing . . .

take money away from the weak so that the strong workers may survive and serve the masters better.

for a change?

damn.

used as props during is time in office (the 'snowflake' kids, the children of service men & women, any kids he's hidden behind in the past) up on the fucking stage and veto this bill right in fucking front of them.

They know it's unpopular to go against and want to hide it as much as possible. Just like the most important news releases come out on Friday night.

Here's an idea, how about Democrats don't let him do it quietly?

This is your legacy, mein Chimperor. No health care for anybody. Especially children, after they are born of course. Aren't you proud of what you do?

But we need to make a whole lotta noise about it.

and roll over once again
