"The president knows bad policy when he sees it,"


http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/10/08/schip.ads/

n Sunday, Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt told the Associated Press he expected the House to sustain the president's veto.

Leavitt also told the AP President Bush was willing to work with Democrats to reauthorize the current program, which covers children from families with incomes up to 200 percent of the poverty level, and to increase funding by 20 percent.

"The president knows bad policy when he sees it," Leavitt told the AP. "But we need to have a serious conversation that involves all of the points of view."
