Webb’s GI Bill

leave a comment »

From Froomkin again:

When Keith Olbermann asked Webb on MSNBC last night if he was bothered by how Bush took and gave credit, Webb replied: “I think it’s safe to say there was a good deal of cooperation among Republicans and Democrats — it just didn’t include the administration.”

Olbermann: “Did either the president or Sen. McCain ever really get on board with this? . . . “

Webb: “No, neither of them really did get on board.”

Steve Benen blogs: “Bush praised five senators this morning for their leadership. One (McCain) fought against the bill and then didn’t bother to vote on it. Two (Graham and Burr) fought against the bill and voted against it. Chuck Hagel was an original sponsor of the bill, the president ignored him altogether.

Bush still doesn’t seem to know what’s going on.
