Fun Fact

November 8, 2007

Congress on Thursday overrode President Bush’s veto for the first time, dealing the White House a setback on a multi-billion dollar water resources bill. 

The last time Congress rejected a Bush veto was Oct. 5, 1992, when President George H.W. Bush failed to stop passage of the massively re-regulatory Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act, which included must carry and retransmission consent handouts to local TV stations.
