The "Post-Civil Rights Era"??

Sure looks like it in judicial terms. Check this from a recent Times "editorial observer" column:

"The civil rights era judges were on solid ground in saying that the 14th Amendment, which was adopted after the Civil War to bring former slaves into society, supported integration. Today’s conservative majority makes the much less obvious argument that the 14th Amendment protects society from integration."

Man! On top of all this other shit, is part of Bush's legacy going to be ushering us into whatever happens after the Civil Rights Era? What happens after Bush's cut-and-run on this domestic front?
