overturn the veto

As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, President Bush vetoed the expansion of the state children’s health insurance program yesterday. The crawl I saw about it on CNN last night said something along the lines of “Bush vetoed SCHIP because it would lead to universal coverage, which he opposes.”

Is that really a Republican talking point right now? That every child in this country doesn’t deserve health care?

Hunh.

Well, if like me, you believe that every child DOES deserve health care, go visit the fine folks at Families USA, and send your congresspeople and senators a letter demanding that they overturn the president’s veto.

Maybe our next president can be for health care reform.
