The Legacy of Bush
The Bush Legacy
Conservative Courts Likely to Be Bush Legacy
David G. Savage, of The Los Angeles Times, writes, "After nearly seven years in the White House, President Bush has named 294 judges to the federal courts, giving Republican appointees a solid majority of the seats, including a 60%-to-40% edge over Democrats on the influential U.S. appeals courts."

The Bush Legacy (Take One)
Tom Engelhardt writes for TomDispatch, "If you don't mind thinking about the Bush legacy a year early, there are worse places to begin than with the case of Erla Osk Arnardottir Lilliendahl."

The Bush Legacy (Take Two)
Tom Engelhardt imagines what it would be like to rid ourselves of one legacy of the Bush administration - the "Global War on Terror."

The Legacy of Bush II
Robert Scheer writes for Truthdig: "Curb your enthusiasm. Even if your favored candidate did well on Super Tuesday, ask yourself if he or she will seriously challenge the bloated military budget that President Bush has proposed for 2009. If not, military spending will rise to a level exceeding any other year since the end of World War II, and there will be precious little left over to improve education and medical research, fight poverty, protect the environment or do anything else a decent person might care about." And, The New York Times editorial board writes: "President Bush's 2009 budget is a grim guided tour through his misplaced priorities, failed fiscal policies and the disastrous legacy that he will leave for the next president. And even that requires you to accept the White House's optimistic accounting, which seven years of experience tells us would be foolish in the extreme."
