I like it, but strictly speaking she only has to recuse herself if NOW is a party to the case.

Wasn't she also a member of the ACLU?

So wouldn't she have to recuse herself from all cases of child pornography, seeing how the ACLU supports such?

But if she recuses herself, how can she vote to continue abortions?</sarcasm>

Yes Agnes, there is a God and He will show us the sweet truth. If you are good, the truth will set you free; if you are a Dim, it will condemn you.

Howcum we haven't seen this demand for recusal all over the news like the wall-to-wall coverage of the Scalia/Cheney hunting trip?

Good post, and a nice catch.

But as long as I'm dreaming about this coming true, can I wish for a pony too?

Great find! Thanks.

We all know this will get the same media attention as the Scalia/Cheney duck hunt recusal demand. ;-)

Hmmmm. Could this possibly be what's behind Scalia recusing himself from the POA case????

There has been a lot of puzzling over why he would knowingly speak before the KoC about a case that was pending, forcing himself to recuse.

Did he deliberately do so in order to set peer precedent and put pressure on Ginsburg to do so on abortion?

If so, it would be a stroke of pure genius.

Scalia recently wrote about the ethical requirements for Supreme Court justices when asked to recuse themselves. It's not at all the same as for other federal judges, who sit on large panels and have substitutes available.

If a Supreme Court justice recuses himself, he's effectively denying one side a vote that cannot be had from any other source.

Therefore, Supreme Court justices don't recuse themselves to avoid the appearance of impropriety, but only actual impropriety.

We've already learned that SC justices don't have to do the recusal thing.

Harrumph.

They ought to be impeaching the loathsome harridan, not "asking" her to do anything.
