Veto Fever -- Catch It!

Once again, President Bush demonstrates that his post-GOP Congress government philosophy can be summed up thusly... Domestic spending = BAD! Irresponsible! Unlimited military spending = GOOD!

From the AP-
President Bush on Tuesday vetoed a spending measure for health and education programs prized by congressional Democrats. He also signed a big increase in the Pentagon's non-war budget.

I can respect demands of fiscal responsibility from our leaders, if applied honestly and evenly. This isn't it, and in the case of George W. Tax Cuts, has never been it. This is just partisan pettiness. If it had been Speaker Hastert handing him this bill, it would be signed without question. Is it 2009 yet?
