Ma...How John McCain fits into this, I have no idea. Maybe a justified fear of McCain is having too much influence on the interpretation of events.<BR/><BR/>I think it more likely they are not selling out Bush, but that by giving credit to Bush they hope to make the decision part of his imperial prerogative. It’s like when Bush said he ‘declassified’ the Wilsongate propaganda: because the Leader did it, it’s ‘legal’.<BR/><BR/>I don’t know why people spent even a minute rejoicing over the Supreme Court decision that there was no such imperial prerogative. There shouldn’t have been a single dissenter from that view, but there were four (counting Roberts). Also anyone who thought the Bushists would rein themselves in was living in a Happy Days episode (i.e., was maladjusted to the times).Barry Schwartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12817873613927688419noreply@blogger.com
