Bankruptcy Bill of 2001 - Hillary stopped it from being signed - poison pill
She added an amendment where mansions were subject to creditors rights too. She had to vote for it for this reason. W didn't sign it - for this reason. I remember the talk at the time.

1. ? Bush didn't have any vetoes early in his presidency
Wasn't the first Bush veto on a stem cell research bill?

4. Pocket veto? That's still a veto, and didn't happen.
If it was passed by Congress but wasn't enacted due to Bush not signing, it was a pocket veto.

Can you provide a link to what you are talking about, that shows that Bush refused to sign a bill passed by Congress, before he vetoed the stem cell bill?

What was the bill number on the bill you are talking about, anyway?

5. So let's get this straight...
Bill Clinton vetoed it as President. After he was against it she decided to be for it to try to kill it,before she was happy it didn't become law. But she has received lots of money from the banks and credit card companies...

I found her answer last night to be highly inadequate on this issue.
