Sigh.. a veto here and a veto there on small specific bills doesn't count for squat JR. When the brass tax came down to it he didn't do squat on the actual BUDGET itself. He only tried to use his veto power on small potatoes stuff AND he had control of the Senate for 6 of his 8 years. So 3/4 of the time he had control of 2/3 of the process.

Incredibly good attempt at a diversion though!!

You wanna see how to use your power as a president when it comes to the budget, just look at the Newt Ginrich - Bill Clinton battle when the government was shut down. THAT took balls. Whether you agree with Clinton's position on that issue or not it took HUGE cajones to actually do it.
