Line item veto would effectively eliminate the two houses of congress
and the budget process while putting TOO much power in one man/woman's
hands. Would be great if the right person was sitting in the seat.


How about a line item veto and having it automatically passed back to
both houses of Congress for approval/disapproval and then being passed
back to the Pres for signing?

Given that it would turn into such a bargining cycle, that it would
take years to pass a bill....which is a very good thing


However, if lies and/or misrepresentations from ALL those seeking
elected office were turned into dollars we wouldn't be running a
deficit. You could remove the counter
