Bush and veto

The same way, if the Democrats move a resolution to restrain Bush from embarking on another misadventure, targeting Iran, that also is bound to face the same fate in the Congress. Bush thus has won the battle in the US, but not in Iraq and Afghanistan where destruction and genocide go on and on.
If the democrats really believe the troops have to be pulled out of Iraq (as well as Afghanistan) and that the powers of President deny the people's deputies to fulfill the ambitions of the Americans, they should come forward to repeal the same veto law of the US.
Similarly, the Americans would serve the world cause for peace and prosperity better by realising that veto is a dangerous tool being used even by the UNSC-5 members only to advance the individual interests of member-states and, therefore, the veto by the UNSC members should be withdrawn for the sake of a just, peaceful world.
Otherwise, it would appear that the Democrats are just playing out a drama, enacted in connivance with the Republicans to advance the US interests in the energy-rich Middle East.
The larger world is at a loss as to find out from the USA if veto power and invasions go against democratic values President Bush and the neo-cons talk about all the time, or they are part of democracy.
