He promised today to veto some congressional vote. Not sure ya can do that but it's not like he wouldn't anyhow. Think maybe he's got VD (veto dementia).

Given both the content & quality of Republican initiatives we should all pray that this holds true.
Send that bill for the Fair Tax to the Oval Office just for ***** and giggles.
It might even save Guam from capsizing. .....again.

House Republicans Fumble Homeland Security Vote
http://www.theatlantic.com/politics...and-security-shutdown/386438/?utm_source=SFFB
All in all, it was an embarrassing week for the Republican majority, which found itself in a legislative battle it couldn't win and facing a shutdown scenario its leaders swore wouldn't happen. Boehner faced opposition from conservatives who pushed him to resist any concessions on immigration, while moderates were angry that the party was jeopardizing national security and risking rebuke from voters who would blame the GOP for a shutdown. Adding to Boehner's troubles, conservatives also forced the leadership to scrap a vote on a separate education bill on Friday overhauling the No Child Left Behind Act. The failures are particularly stinging for Republicans because they come shortly after the party took over both houses of Congress, promising that unified control would allow them to govern more effectively.
