Veto Signals Start of a Risky Political Game (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/23/AR2007062300051.html) By Jeffrey H. Birnbaum, June 24, 2007
George W. Bush has been the most accommodating of presidents. He has rarely used his veto pen to kill legislation. Until now.
Last week, Bush vetoed a bill that would have expanded federally funded embryonic stem-cell research. He said scientific advances allow researchers to pursue lifesaving work without destroying human embryos. It was his third veto ever.
But there will soon be more. Lots more, and almost every one of them will have an impact on the markets and business growth.
Bush has attacked the opposition party for "excessive spending" and has vowed to veto many of Congress's 12 appropriations bills, which are on track to exceed his wishes by $23 billion in the next fiscal year.
In response, some Democrats have said they can play that game, too. A faction thinks the last thing they should do is let pass almost any legislative initiative Bush and his party can claim credit for, including the immigration and energy bills Congress is working on.
These confrontations are shortsighted no matter who's to blame. A budget impasse would depress markets and weaken the dollar. Failure of the immigration bill would threaten businesses that hire illegal immigrants with increased sanctions or compel them to hire fewer people, either of which would lead to higher prices. And energy shortages could easily become chronic unless more is done to reduce our reliance on high-price oil.
Shallow political finger-pointing is not an adequate response.
