I read with great anticipation that President Bush says he'll veto the Iraq War spending bill passed by Congress last week, because it would require him to remove U.S. troops from Iraq 17 months from now. Nobody, and certainly not Congress, can tell this man anything.
If he carries out this threat, Congress shouldn't give him another penny for the Iraq War. Let him raise money from his wealthy campaign contributors -- the "Pioneers" and "Rangers." After that, he and Cheney can go on TV for an Iraq War pledge drive, just like the ones on PBS.
And we'll be out of Iraq in three months, not 17. So go ahead, President Bush. Veto the bill. Make my day.
