Should Kagan and Sotomayor recuse themselves, in your opinion? Why or why not?
No, because appointment to the court is not grounds for recusing. Should Alito or Scalia or Thomas recuse themselves because they're Republicans and therefore their impartiality could be called into question by the liberals?
Placemark.
None of the Supreme Court Justices appointed by Richard Nixon recused themselves from hearing the Watergate tapes case, United States v. Nixon, which was decided unanimously against Nixon and led to his resignation.
