In the Chicago Tribune I found this article. It was very small and out of the way.
"BUSH VETOES HEALTH BILL" President Bush vetoed a popular bill to expand federally funded children's health insurance-despite facing significant resistance from within his own party. The State Children's health Insurance Program would offer health insurance for children of families with incomes of up to three times the federal poverty level. Many Republicans worry Bush's stand could affect the 2008 elections of Democrats successfully portray the GOP as indifferent to children's health. What’s next? Some GOP House members are trying to find the votes to override the veto; the bill passed with a veto-proof majority in the Senate.
