White House spokeswoman Dana Perino’s explanation of the President’s veto of a bill that would provide $35 billion over five years for children’s health insurance – essentially Medicaid for children of people who can’t afford health insurance: “In a time when they (legislators) think that they want to increase funding for children's health care, they're actually wanting to pay for it with a cigarette tax, which includes – people who smoke are usually – the majority are in the low-income bracket. And so they're raising taxes on something to pay for a middle-class entitlement. "
This, on the heels of approving an additional $190 billion a year for war?
