Kathryn, I’m not surprised that that senate aide is “irritated” by the state of the clay pigeon. I wonder if he or she remembers that it was only a few weeks ago that Bush was whining that opponents of the legislation hadn’t read it. Well, it would be nice if he and Reid gave them a chance to do just that.

Bush ought to say now that he will veto any legislation passed using these tactics.

I’m not holding my breath.
