President Bush is headed to the Cincinnati area for a fundraiser for his cheerleader, Republican Rep. Steve Chabot (OH-1st). Here are a few excerpts from the Cincinnati Enquirer:
...The fundraiser comes a little more than a week after Chabot voted to uphold the president's veto of the children's health insurance program...
"Apparently, loyalty to Bush beats loyalty to children and Chabot is getting his payoff for dutifully playing Bush's puppet," Chairman Chris Redfern said.
In fact, Driehaus has a rally scheduled for this afternoon to highlight Bush's ties to Chabot - and, with a backdrop of children, highlight Chabot's vote on the children's health insurance program....
Democratic challenger, Steve Driehaus, is right to focus on Chabot's undying obedience to the Bush agenda. How many children will have to lose healthcare because Chabot must march in lockstep with President Bush's demands?
