Coll'alterazione determinata nell'appuntare giudici ultraconservatori 
nell'Alta Corte degli USA, il seminatore della Casa Bianca ha avuto, 
purtroppo,  gia`la possibilita` di seminare gramigna che restera`oltre i 
suoi otto anni di termine; la sua  politica potra`continuare anche se fosse 
mandato via subito a calci.
Le sue colpe di una maledetta guerra inconcepibile, disastrosa quanto 
tragicamente bizzarra non resteranno mai solo quelle.

Bush sets US Supreme Court legacy
By Claire Bolderson
BBC News, Ohio
Samuel Alito was one of the conservatives Bush appointed
In their second term in office, the thoughts of any US president turn to 
their legacy.
George W Bush has some of the lowest opinion poll ratings of any modern 
president and his critics say his legacy will be the continuing war in Iraq 
and a weakening economy.
But for the people who formed the core of his support in the 2000 and 2004 
elections, there is something else that is just as important and possibly 
even more important.
President Bush has made two appointments to the nine-member Supreme Court 
and voters from the Christian Conservative movement say that is his true 
legacy.
Conservatives strengthened
For more than a decade the court was finely balanced. On one side were 
conservative justices who believe in a very literal application of the 
Constitution.
On the other, there were the more liberal judges who see the Constitution as 
more of a living document open to greater interpretation.
Mr Bush's appoints of John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the bench has 
entrenched the conservative side. And the impact has already been seen in 
rulings on sensitive issues like abortion rights.
The court has, for example, upheld a ban on a late-term procedure known as 
partial birth abortion.
The conservatives now hold the balance of power in the court
It is abortion that matters most to many of Mr Bush's supporters - people 
like Ray Sheridan of Harrisburg, Ohio.
That was his priority when he decided to vote for President Bush in 2004.
He says there is still some way to go. The real hope for him is that more 
conservative judges are appointed in coming years and the landmark Roe vs 
Wade ruling that legalised abortion can then be overturned.
But more than that, Ray Sheridan sees the Supreme Court as the moral guide 
of the nation, ruling on the legality of a range of laws from gay marriage 
to religion in schools.
On that score, when it comes to Mr Bush's Supreme Court appointments Mr 
Sheridan says: "I really can't complain."
Long-lasting influence
Members of the powerful Christian Conservative organisations across the 
country agree. They are already looking to the next presidential election in 
the knowledge that an ageing membership of the Supreme Court means more 
appointments are likely in the near future.
As conservative activist and film maker Deborah Flora says, a president is 
for a maximum of eight years while a Supreme Court judge is for decades "and 
they shape the entire direction of a country long after a president comes 
and goes".
President Bush's effect on the court will be felt long after he has gone. 
The impact on everything from abortion rights to positive discrimination in 
education, and even the death penalty, is already being felt with a shift 
towards decisions that are popular with the right wing.
President Bush may be criticised on a number of fronts almost daily - but 
when it come to what matters most to them, his socially conservative 
supporters are more than happy.

 fosse mandato via subito a calci.
E' l'unica cosa buona fatta da Bush (di rilievo) così almeno
si limiteranno i danni che potrà fare la Clinton o il Giuliani..sempre
sperando che vinca un altro
Ciao!

Sogna, sogna. Grazie al cielo, l'aborto non lo toccherà nessuno, perché le 
donne possono anche credere a Babbo Natale, ma sarebbero loro (qualunque sia 
la loro credenza) a "dover partorire". Quindi, nisba. Questa conquista di 
civiltà is here to stay.

Eccome no!
Purtroppo se anche non si può vincere una guerra contro l'ignavia umana
si può sempre vincere qualche battaglia.
