I'll bet Bush wished that Congress had stayed totally away from Schiavo.
Passing that bill merely cornered him, he could not refuse to sign it for
fear of ****ing off the Christian Right. Had he refused, he might have
taken
a bigger approval hit the other way. His last comments indicates he just
wants this to go away.
He's not running for anything. Why should he care about how the Schiavo
case affects his poll ratings? The man is standing on principle, as is his
brother (who *may* be running for something). Republicans (at the state and
the federal level) who voted against any life-sustenance bill have sold out
to insurance companies and hospital administrators.
You're forgetting one little item.
He's the supposed head of his political party. Unless you count Karl
Rove as that person. In that case, Bush was acting on orders.
