When el presidente tries to act more conservative than Orrin Hatch on social issues one must ask: what gives? Well, today, the C-in-C vetoed the SCHIP reauthorization bill.

An override seems unlikely, but perhaps moral outrage could sway some Republican representatives.

Update 10/18/07:  Veto sustained.  Prognostication on what’s next at Bob Laszewski’s Health Care Policy and Marketplace Review.
