Boy, Bush Is Gonna Look Like a Real DOOFUS When He Vetoes S-CHIP & Will Lose Base.
Here in Texas S-Chip is very important; I have talked to quite a few people who rely on it. When Bush vetoes the bill to EXPAND S-CHIP, I foresee a backlash.

That man is NOT a compassionate anything. Last week's press conference where he blamed the Dems for political theatre and for possibly killing S-CHIP only served to cover up the fact that HE is trying to GUT that important program! He went on and on about how he as governor of Texas found S-CHIP so important, etc. But now he's trying to cut it, gut it, and strip it - and he knows damn well when he vetoes that bill to expand S-CHIP there's gonna be political hell to pay.

Why doesn't he want the bill expanded? Why doesn't he want to help the children? Why is he such an asshole liar? (rhetorical)

:shrug:

1. Do you get health care under martial law?
A lot of what Bush is doing makes sense only if he doesn't think he'll ever have to pay a political price for it.

Or serve hard time.

6. I must agree
Bush is only concerned about Bush, nothing more!
He will veto it, and could care less.

His "base" will keep saying the "well he is a godly man" shit like the 4 morons I know who would defend this c**ksucker even if he ate a live baby on national TV

3. Bush never cared about his base, IMO

Like most politicians, once he has the votes to put him in office, his base is of no importance.

4. But Dana Perino says Bush really cares about children..
He just doesnt want this to become socialized medicine.

BTW I know many middle income families who do not have affordable health ins.. and some that do cannot afford the premiums for family coverage.


Dana Perino is such a freakin LIAR.
