And that's not the issue. The issue is whether or not a Supreme Court Justice can be compelled by Congress to recuse themselves from cases of possible conflict of issues.
Scalia has presided over cases..most notably Bush v. Gore..where there were clear conflicts of issues.
So..if this comes to pass..are Scalia's decisions in jeporady as well? Or is it only this particular justice in this particular case. Because there are more coming up that will have the same exact sorts of issues for Judge Thomas as well.
Aside from the SCOTUS, who won the Bush-Gore election?
Now be carefull....this is a one-question test of your political acumen...so the pressure is on!

Gore won the Popular vote.
Bush..in a state where is his BROTHER was govenor, and his campaign manager was Secretary of State..and his cousin on FOX news announced he won the state..had an interesting night in Florida.
Of course...NONE of that means anything to you.
you're lost dude....none of that mattered in the end...ask the NY Times...
The decision should not stand. Even Scalia has said it should never be used as a precedent. It was a very very poor decision..
There is no remedy in reversal..but it assures that something this awful won't happen again.
And that's something both sides of the political spectrum should want.
Scalia has presided over cases..most notably Bush v. Gore..where there were clear conflicts of issues.
How so what were the conflicts?
Scalia was appointed by Reagan..who's vice President was George HW Bush.
Scalia is a close personal friend of Dick Cheney..George W. Bush's running mate.
Scalia's sons were lawyers in firms representing George W. Bush.
Those three things alone are enough..

Astonishing.
There were numerous times Scalia should have recused himself..and did not. That should be the standard now.

Well tanks for the attempt at letting me know what means what to me. But hysterical nonsense doesn't mean much to me.
Bush's campaign manager was NOT Catherin Harris,as far as what TV announcers said or didn't say is irrelevant. Yep the dumbest President ever managed to sway the election so it all came down to just one state,and his brother just happens to be governor.You are just plan nuts !!!
2000 US presidential electionMain article: United States presidential election in Florida, 2000
As Secretary of State for the State of Florida (and co-chair of Bush's Florida election efforts), Harris was a central figure in the 2000 US presidential election in Florida. Harris certified that the Republican candidate, then-Texas Governor George W. Bush, had defeated the Democratic candidate, then-Vice President Al Gore, in the popular vote of Florida and thus certified the Republican slate of electors

Corporate America, big money American insurers, and ideologically driven conservatives will do anything to stop progress for all Americans. It isn't in their interests to have watchdogs who actually watch over the interests of average Americans. They love most of the fascists on the current court, as fascism's model is corporate control of politics and people.
Democracy after Citizens United | MIT World
"Consider how corporate political clout has shaped critical areas of public policy, Lessig begins. For instance, subsidies to influential corn producers in the past three decades have led to shifts in food production, such as feeding cattle antibiotics to help them digest corn fodder, and high fructose corn syrup pervasive in food and soda. The result: an epidemic of obesity and antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria -- both antithetical to public health. Industries engage in rent seeking, contributing to politicians in exchange for some kind of economic advantage, and blocking action in the public interest in the process: fossil fuel industries defeat climate change legislation; financial services defeat tough banking regulation; the health insurance sector defeats truly comprehensive health care law. Now, says Lessig, the Supreme Court has taken a bad situation and made it much worse, by lifting restrictions on corporations at election time."

In the first full study of Florida's ballots since the election ended, The Miami Herald and USA Today reported George W. Bush would have widened his 537-vote victory to a 1,665-vote margin if the recount ordered by the Florida Supreme Court would have been allowed to continue, using standards that would have allowed even faintly dimpled "undervotes" -- ballots the voter has noticeably indented but had not punched all the way through -- to be counted.
Online NewsHour: Media Recount: Bush Won
The lead of an April 4, 2001 USA Today story headlined, Newspapers' recount shows Bush prevailed, by reporter Dennis Cauchon:
George W. Bush would have won a hand count of Florida's disputed ballots if the standard advocated by Al Gore had been used, the first full study of the ballots reveals. Bush would have won by 1,665 votes -- more than triple his official 537-vote margin -- if every dimple, hanging chad and mark on the ballots had been counted as votes, a USA TODAY/Miami Herald/Knight Ridder study shows. The study is the first comprehensive review of the 61,195 "undervote" ballots that were at the center of Florida's disputed presidential election....

An exhaustive review of last year's disputed presidential election in Florida indicates that George W. Bush still would have defeated Al Gore even if Mr. Gore had been granted the limited vote recounts he was seeking. Several U.S. news organizations consider the study the final word on the 2000 presidential election.
The study found that even if Al Gore had won the right to limited recounts in Florida, he still would have lost to Mr. Bush by at least 200 votes. The official results gave Mr. Bush a 537 vote victory.

All of it is a load of crap. Aside from the fact that there were massive conflict of interest issues all over the government of Florida...that data was completely corrupt.
The entire vote should have been ruled invalid. Florida was purging votes of "Felons" that didn't turn out to be felons. And many votes were conveniently "lost".
The simple solution should have been a run off.
And that's not the issue. The issue is whether or not a Supreme Court Justice can be compelled by Congress to recuse themselves from cases of possible conflict of issues.
