Will Bush get bitch-slapped?

The petulant little boy, who didn't veto ANY spending when Republicans are in charge, is now vetoing spending that's actually fiscally responsible.

He HATES spending money to help America. If this was for water projects in Iraq, he'd want twice as much.

But it looks like this veto may get overridden.

If it does - do you think Bush will throw a public temper tantrum?

WASHINGTON (AP) — An increasingly confrontational President Bush on Friday vetoed a bill authorizing hundreds of popular water projects even though lawmakers can count enough votes to override him.

Bush brushed aside significant objections from Capitol Hill, even from Republicans, in thwarting legislation that provides money for projects like repairing hurricane damage, restoring wetlands and preventing flooding in communities across the nation.

This level of opposition virtually assured that Bush would have a veto overridden for the first time in his presidency.
