Default Dubb-Ya gets a spanking... finally...

SENATE OVERRIDES BUSH'S WATER BILL VETO:
http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/11/...ter/index.html

"Bush spiked the measure Friday despite its overwhelming bipartisan support, calling it too costly and complaining that the 900 projects it authorized would overtax the Army Corps of Engineers."

I think Dubb-Ya should re-assess his concept of "too costly".

Sen. Barbara Boxer, a Democrat from California who was responsible for shepherding the bill through the Senate, said the Senate was sending the president a message:
"You should respect the Senate, the House, the Congress and American people because we are elected, too," Boxer said. "We are close to the people. We know what their needs are."

You tell 'em Barbara...
