[HPforGrownups] bush impact

Of course Bush himself can't push legislation that
would ban books such as Harry potter. Presidents or
congress for that matter don't have that kind of power
because comprimise is the name of the game.

The concern for me about any Republican administration
is judicial appointments, particularily the supreme
court. this is where the true freedom of speech cases
are fought out.

The current supreme court is fairly balanced right
now, but there will likely be two new appointments
within the next four years. The president makes those
recommendations and those recommendations are
typically folks who agree with party philosophy.
The religious right continues to have far too much
influence on the republican party and judical
appointmnets may very well reflect that.

my 2 cents.
