New You'd think so...
but the weird part is...if switch it around to Congress majorities, it then makes no sense at all.

Reagan && Bush I dealt with nothing but Democratic majorities.
Clinton has a Democratic majority at first...then a Republican one...the trends remained the same.
Dubya had a Republican majority for all but his last 2 years. I will admit a trend increase for the last 2 years....but even then, Congress 'controls' the wallet but the President can still always veto. I don't recall off-hand if there were any budget veto-overrides for Dubya.

New W set all time low for veto
12 in 8 years I think is the number.
Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.
