Veto

[prog]

Here is me lighting a candle for the untold numbers of people the president doomed today in order to please his unevolved base. For all I know, I'm one of those doomed. For all I know, so is he.

Most of Congress stood against you this time, you son of a bitch, and it will be even more with the next bill. The allies of fear and ignorance cannot hold back science forever.

No. When the president can ignore whatever he feels like, via signing statements which leave Congress no recourse, that makes him a king.

I actually think he expects this veto to be overturned, and that this veto is a way for him to let stem cell stuff happen without being held accountable for it by the pharisees.

That makes sense.

It's a shame the system is such that the popularity contest is more important than the decisions. One wonders how badly someone has to fuck up before that changes.

I would be surprised if the overturn was successful. Was the margin of baby-killing traitorous RINOs that large?
