Trend in the past few months

It occurred to me, that since this summer, the President has used his veto pen repeatedly. In the first term he only used it once, and in his second term up until recently, he only used it once. However, now he is vetoing all kinds of things.

Maybe it's a lame duck thing? He can't run for a third term, and Cheney won't run for President either, so there are no political disincentives against him vetoing whatever he jolly well wants to veto.

he had his puppy republican congress the first years licking his.... shoes to comply.
Now he has a democratic congress to compromise with and he doesn't like to compromise.
