Bush has used his veto powers 11 times in total 12 if you count a pocket veto. 1 of those was before the Dems took office, so it is not DOZENS as you say, It is one less than a dozen
I was wrong earlier, I Was looking at an older story, and I am very sorry for being wrong. When I am wrong I will always admit to it.
The Thing is as presidents go 12 times is a rather small amount. In fact it is the lowest number of times since harding.

List of United States presidential vetoes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clinton used it 37 times, Bush 1 used it 44 times, Reagan used it 78 times.
The most ever was Grover Cleavland with a whopping 414 times.
Bush did not use his first veto until 5.5 years into his terms. It only makes sense he would use it more when the Dems are in Control considering he is a Republican.
What has he vetoed?
So he has vetoed 11 Bills under the Democrat congress.
You are a good man Charles.
ps. I saw Brother in Law or Stepbrothers tonight. The Will Ferrell movie being released Friday. Free screening probably so we would get the word out on how funny it was. It was one of the funniest movie in a long long time. The guy he costarred with was the same guy he starred with in that racecar movie. was it talladega nights? its getting late and i'm tired. but seriously, the entire movie was roaring with laughter. they faught in the beginning and it was funny, then they became best friends and it was even funnier. will farrell is hilarious. will has a real brother in the movie and he is such a jerk that it brings the two together. they play 2 40 yr olds that still live with their parents when they get married and the two have to share a room and eventually get jobs and move out. instant classic! maybe his best movie yet.
