All vetoes originate in the White House.
None of this crap about blaming somebody else. True, the House Republicans and Senate Republicans have gone leftist--no case, well known and well documented. The RATs and the Republicans have had a merger.
Bush is directly to blame for the spending. He has not raised a voice against it, nor has he raised the veto pen against it.
Bush has been more than a disappointment. He has destroyed Reagan's conservative movement. Now, both parties have been moving into leftist land as riding partners.
I refer you to post #9.
