05/03/07: Bush Gave In, and He Won't Give Up!

Published: May 8, 2007, midnight

President Bush vetoed the Iraq Accountability Act - also known as the "emergency war supplemental" - last Tuesday, solely because it provided a timetable for US troop withdrawal. In the second of three linked segments, Jared and Ralph discuss Bush's comments on his veto, including his official statement and his speech to a contractors' association. (Note: the third segment, contrary to last segment's notes, will be available Tuesday as a bonus segment; "Conflict over the Iraq Occupation, Part 3" will be offered Wednesday or Thursday.) We discuss the stunning link that has forced this occupation to be necessary - and it will shock you! Eventually, everyone will realize that our President has betrayed America and its values at every turn!
