No it's not. You will just create friction between the states and feds. Nothing more. Everyone knows that suing can't get them anywhere. Its simply a political stunt.

Perhaps a little friction is good. There was this Tea Party a few years back...But then again, maybe a little more in the papers about the Fed and GHE and a little less about the Iraqi War might raise public conscience that there is more going on in the world than the Middle East and the "War on Terror".

Besides, I'm sure this bill has already come up, and the reason Bush is not pushing the agenda is A. He has other things to worry about right now, and B. The original bill as put forth probably has som BS pork barreled spending in it buried by senator

Bush is a lame duck and I don't see where any of point A would be relevant much longer as he will soon be passing the buck to his replacement. Personally, I hope he's busy planning a permanent vacation somewhere else outside the US or getting Texas annexed by Mexico...
I think your speculating on Point B. I mean I wouldn't be surprised but who knows...

THere is only one logical way forward to get our government moving again - give the pres line item veto so he can veto out BS out of great bills that were buried in there by some idiot senator for his self interests.

Sorry I wouldn't give Bush the power to order a Hamburger and Fries if my life depended on it... I think it would just be a trade between a Senators self interests and Bush's...
