And this is the very reason why the power of Veto is Fucken Bullshit... especially if it bill is about you and you have the power to veto it. There should not be any Veto power if the bill is about you you shouldn't be able veto it. This also one of the reasons the UN has no teeth and is a fail.
History repeating it self...
