America: War? YES!...Children's Health? NO!

The U.S. House of Representatives Fail To Override Bush SCHIP Veto...
The House tally was 13 votes shy of the needed two-thirds majority...supporters of the bill were unable to convert a single House Republican who voted against the bill last month...
Many GOP lawmakers echoed President Bush's concern that the bill would go too far in giving states the option to also help some middle-class families.
This vote stands as the latest example of how Mr. Bush can still get his way on Capitol Hill. Through despicable use of veto threats and his veto pen, Mr. Bush has fended off attempts to force a change of course in Iraq and twisted Democrats into knots over domestic surveillance -- a feat Democrats would never have imagined when they pushed Republicans out of power a year ago.

Bottom Line? ...Bush and his cronies are tyrants, Democrats have been reduced to whining minions, Americans are embedded in apathy, ignorance and Attention Deficit Disorder...and our country is in steep decline...
The worst part? By all indications...it's only going to get worse...
