according to the article, they overrode a veto the President made for water projects. These projects include rebuilding the levees and the entire area that was affected by Hurricane Katrina.

"Since the 2006 elections, Bush has vetoed three spending bills -- the water bill, a $35 billion expansion of the state-run, federally funded Children's Health Insurance Program and a $120 billion war-spending bill that would have called for the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq in 2008."

He basically only veto's things that help americans. How can anyone honestly say at this point they proudly voted for him or any republican congressman who supports him?

I agree wholeheartedly. I hope they override the other 2, but that may be asking too much!

He's been a great president for sure. Cut him some slack, it isn't his fault he didn't know there were different types of muslims in the world and that they kinda didn't like each other.

yeah, like they haven't liked each other for over 1,000 years!

How would he know that though? You don't expect the President to have read up before he goes to war do you?

pfffffftttt

he was elected to lead, not to read.
The icing on the cake is that he was a history major in college.

woah, woah. so what if they are different sects of islam that can't cooperate? we saved them! they were going to be so grateful that they would immediately and completely accept american values and government.

and build idols to george w bush.

just saying, that's what was expected, you can't blame the american leadership that they reacted in the wrong way.

Of course there was a bi-partisan override, the bill contained a lot of nice pork to go around. ;-)
