Good News

Good news everybody, over the last few days, many Congressmen came to their senses. In the vote today, the House failed to over-ride President Bush's veto of the SCHIP extension bill. Though the Democrats did get some Republicans on their side, they couldn't intimidate enough of them to get the veto over-ridden. This is a victory for the free market, and for small government, though not a huge one. After all, SCHIP still exists, though not in as large a form as it would have if the bill had passed. In addition, we still have have a huge failing Medi-Care system, which is also a very socialist program. So this is a step in the right direction, but we still have a long way to go to rid our country of socialism.
