Voters: Keep Passing Bills Even If Obama is Opposed

"A new Rasmussen Reports poll issued Friday found that 59 percent of voters 'think Congress should continue to pass legislation that most members of Congress support even if the president is opposed'," writes Paul Bedard at the Washington Examiner. "Just 25 percent want Congress to cave into the White House and 16 percent are unsure."
Despite bipartisan support, Obama vetoed the Keystone bill this week, and is promising to use the veto pen much more in his last two years in office.

The poll of 800 likely voters taken this week could also strengthen the backbone of Republicans eager to use the Department of Homeland Security spending bill to punish Obama's decision last year to grant worker amnesty to some 5 million illegal immigrants.
