Did the Democrats steal Bush’s Veto Pen?

In a sense they did on a few occasions vis a vis some significant veto overrides.

Food Conservation and Energy Act of 2008 ...veto overridden by House on May 21, and Senate on May 22.

May 23, 2008 - Senate vote overrides Bush veto of farm bill. With an 82-13 vote http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2004433501_watch23.html
