Newsflash: Scalia is not an impartial jurist
In an alternate universe where our leaders and our Supreme Court are rational, this guy would recuse himself from any cases involving the prisoners at Guantanamo. This quote alone is reason enough:
"I had a son on that battlefield and they were shooting at my son, and I’m not about to give this man who was captured in a war a full jury trial. I mean it’s crazy." The conservative judge’s son, Matthew, fought in the Iraq war.
But Scalia isn't in the habit of recusing himself when there's an apparent conflict of interest involving his son.
