Congress expanded the income qualification limit substaintially, above and beyond what Bush felt was necesary.

Because the Democrats had added in a bunch of other programs. It would have let millions of working people making $80,000 a year in on the insurance. Then they could have cancelled the insurance they already had. You and I would have to pay for their insurance then and OURS. It was the first step to socialized medicine and thank God he realized it and vetoed the bill.

Because the healthcare providers and drug companies are among Bush's biggest contributors, and their profits are his top priorities in the matter. All the other excuses he gave are pretexts. He will never sign a bill that might regulate the profits of his buddies in the health care industry.

The child health care bill (aka SCHIP) exists already, this was for expansion of the program to cover middle-income families. Bush is willing to expand the program, just not to the extent that it is being proposed. He believes that it should be only for the poor children, just as it is now.
