Bush Family Business: Committing Scams on OPM and the New American Caesarism

(July 28) Now even the Bush Cabal is confused, especially my old Republican Cohorts in Crime. The Bush Regime’s intentions have even confused Bushonian Republican Loyalists. When you walk around the Beltway, half of them have grown toothbrush mustaches -- and the other half are wearing togas. Nobody knows what the hell they’re doing.

The White House even held an emergency political session about it. It’s very unusual. The White House has announced that they will veto the bill.

3. So, what will happen if he vetoes this bill?

5. I thought they said
they can easily override his damn veto. I thought that was the tricky part for the veto in the first place. Congress will be on record opposing him en masse on a Constitutionally-based issue.
