Funny, I was just reading that Resolute.
Here's the gig. In order to look good, threaten the veto, but after a couple minor tweeks that don't really change anything, vote for it.
Quote:
"Obama threatened to veto NDAA, too. How'd that turn out?" Kendall Clark, CEO of startup Clark Stardog.com, wrote on Twitter.
NDAA, or the National Defense Authorization Act, was passed by Congress late last year. Opponents criticized the bill for its provisions that would allow the government to indefinitely detain American citizens. In November, the White House said the bill spawned "serious and unsettled legal questions and would be inconsistent with the fundamental American principle that our military does not patrol our streets."
The White House statement claimed the President’s senior advisers would recommend a veto (the language sound familiar to anyone?) if the House passed NDAA. Instead, Obama signed NDAA into law less than two months later.
