They Voted For You: Water Bill Veto Override

The U.S. Senate followed the lead of the House and voted Thursday to override President Bush's veto of the Water Resources Development Act of 2007.

Sens. Robert C. Byrd and Jay Rockefeller, both D-W.Va., were with the majority in the 79-14 vote.

The override is the first suffered by Bush in his seven-year-old presidency, The Associated Press reports.
