There was an article in the Washington Times where bush told them that he very likely wouldn't use his veto for the budget because he didn't think it was appropriate because it would piss off congress and make them do whatever they want (which he's giving them a green light to do anyways with that stupid attitude. and his FIRST veto threat that I actually think he would follow through on is for Medicare, which came in WAYYYYYY over his promised (and the guy KNEW he was lying his ass off to congress and the public) budget and is gonna blow a hole in his budget. His current budget doesn't even account for the $84 billion that he asks for ongoing war efforts it also ognores SS changes and more! It's pathetic and people in this country follow him like sheep to a slaughter.

Bush made those announcements of budget cutbacks last week and his approval rating went from 57% to 49% in a few days. It's tough to be the prez.
"Make cuts but not from me!"
