Owens Cuts the Crap

Colorado Republican Governor Bill "No Morning After" Owens wants to give Bush a line-item veto in order to allow the President to cut the "crap" out of appropriations bills. The first thing I'd ask the Gov is has Colorado ever benefited from Congressional "crap" and did the Gov then do the ethical thing and turn the money down? A vast silence fills the hall. The second question would be Gov, do you really want this power in the hands of a Democratic President? The silence deepens....

I do, but the threat of the Shrub nuking everything that benefits normal people keeps me in reality and opposed to the line-item veto.
