Bush's Only Legacy - a Right Wing Court?

[leftyladyfrommo]

Everything else he has done has ended in absolute failure.

His immigration bill is dead.

No Child Left Behind is under serious fire.

The tax cuts are coming up for renewal and looks like they don't have the support to renew them.

The Iraq fiasco.

The whole Middle East fiasco.

Absolutely everything he has tried to do is falling apart - thank God.

But we may be stuck with a right-wing court for a long time to come.

1. Unless one or more get sick and we have

a good Democrat as President 2009.

[leftyladyfrommo]

4. I think if one got sick now this Congress would not approve

another conservative.

2. A Right Wing Court Is the Ultimate Failure--And It Can and Will Be Fixed

Justice doesn't lean.

[rocktivity]

3. Not really, because it would be BAD legacy!

5. Better yet: Bush's* Revenge

6. I was thinking about that exact question last night

I pictured Bush on Larry King Live in 2009 and Larry asking, "What accomplishment are you most proud of?"

Since he can't answer, "I made all my friends and donors extremely rich", how would he answer? "Uhhhhhhh, uhhhhhhmmmmmm, duhhhhhhhhh.. I'll get back to you Larry, heh heh."

7. 5 of the SCOTUS "justices"

committed treason on December 12, 2000 and should be tried and executed and replaced by the new "democratic" "president"


ha ha ha ha ha fucking ha

[n2doc]

8. Well, by Legacy you mean things he has done

Then Iraq is certainly his "legacy" all 600,000+ dead Iraqi and US. A destroyed country.

Also his legacy includes the destruction of parts of 2 major US cities, NY and NO.

And about 12 trillion in debt

And a compromised Constitution.

And Vote Fraud.

And US funded religous groups.

And a National Guard with inadequate equipment

And an Army almost incapable of fighting a major war anymore.

Frankly, I can't think of much of a positive Legacy he has left us, but he sure left us with a bunch of negative ones.

9. A Supreme Court that dismantles the Constitution is also a failure

They are ALL Bush's legacy.

Not one to be proud of, mind you.

The next president has his or her work cut out for them. There will be
a lot of damage control that needs to be done. Politically, the damage
control the USA requires is almost as much as that of Germany in May, 1945.
The good news is, I think we can handle it.

Halliburton's move to Dubai tells us where Cheneybush thinks their future
is. Uncle Dick STILL has his house on the Iranian resort Island of Kish
right across the Gulf from Dubai. If they flee there before indictment, let 'em,
as long as the arrest warrants remain valid.

Those of us that intend to hang around have other concerns.

10. it doesn't matter, it would not have been better with Gore, the states will fix it

don't forget to thank Nader

[sallyseven]

11. What??? Thank Nader for what pray tell

The man with an ego as big as Ohio?? That moron I hope he doesn't run again. We all lost because of him the entire U.S.

[Hamlette]

13. thank him for the right wing court, remember, during the election, he said the court didn't matter

there was no difference between Gore and Bush, even in their appointments to the court, if the court did away with Roe v Wade (which is starting to look like the LEAST of our worries) the states could just pick up the slack.

(I don't know how to do "smilies". If I did, I'd do the scarcasm one.)

[DFW]

12. Ohio would not contain Nader's ego

Asia might do the trick...........

[spanone]

14. Iraq will be his legacy, SCOTUS will be his fucking of America.
