That's good news, but it should have never gotten to this point.

We can't get too excited yet...these things always have a way of getting resurrected with something extra added.

But smoke 'em now!!

And of course the MSNBC article perpetuates the misconception, "It would be funded by raising the federal cigarette tax by 61 cents to $1 per pack." No mention of the rest of the extortion picture.

Celebrate now, but stay ready. They'll be back.

Fox at least said that Bush told congress he would veto it and that they knew about it!

Re: SCHIP VETO'd
Very nice. All of the news talks about how Bush killed the "Child healthcare bill". No mention of $85k income households, 25 year old kids, etc. Lets hope the house holds it's ground.
