I don't like parts C and D of that act at all, but, I may be willing not to veto this little thing if the Atlasia National Energy Act proposed by Sen. Nation gets a little support swung its way by a few of you lefties.....

That said, I do dislike C and D quite a bit.....

Mr. President, if you sign this bill in its complete form, I will vote for the Energy Act.

I prioritize.

Anyway, there are only a few things in the ANEA that I really dislike.

I think I know what would be a good compromise. I will agree to strike section c, since the issue is rather minor, and my vote on a national energy proposal that in no way alters EPA and CAFE regulations in exchange for your signature.

I am not compromising on this, at least one of you votes for the Atlasia National Energy Act and it passes and I won't veto this act, I don't intend to sign it, but that is irrelevant as after seven days it comes into automatic effect.

It's a tough choice. I believe that both the environment and access to contraception are very important, so I offered a compromise.

I will change my vote, though. I realize this is quite a sad day for me, but I have decided that I cannot ignore the hundreds of thousands of women who every year die of complications from childbirth, who are maimed and have only a fistula to show for it, and who are left permanently infertile. I will vote to give the Treasury department an opportunity to hurt our environment, but believe me, we will not be held hostage. We will work to further strengthen the environment, and we will not forget this cruel choice we were forced to make. My only consolation is that millions of women will no longer be forced to hoe the hard road their sisters have had to, and that the prospect of a society of wanted, loved children is nearer.

6-4 this passes, good.

Now we wait for JFK to do nothing, and get it passed in seven days.

This is truly a great day for me. Both of my maiden pieces of legislation are on the verge of becoming the law of the Atlas, untouched and unadulterated no less. My only regret is that this comes at the price of hurting the environment.

He made a deal with several Senators, if he vetoes it, it could have serious political damage due to the fact that he wouldn't honor his side of the bargain.

I changed my vote and did what I didn't want to do. I hope the president has the integrity to now do something he doesn't want to do.

I present this act to the President of the Atlas John F. Kennedy for signing.
