Line item veto? MORE Presidential power?

Uh, no thanks, I'll pass on that. (shuddering thinking how much FURTHER damage GWB could have inflicted with line item veto).:scared:

1. LIV means the vetoed portion goes back to Congress for a separate vote

It will considerably change the dynamic of the Congress - for the better, I think.

I don't think it would give Bush any more power than he already has taken.

2. A Rose by any other name.......

5. You gotta be kidding.

And didn't a saner Supreme Court knock this down?

3. Bush would use it to veto anything that helps a blue part of the country

A bill that contained money for bridges in the SF Bay Area would be line item vetoed, while spending on wheat subsidies for Kansas would be left intact.
