Last month the story was that they went duck hunting together. The LA Times is now reporting that Scalia flew there for free as Cheney's guest on Air Force Two.
- "In my view, this further ratchets it up. If the vice president is the source of generosity, it means Scalia is accepting a gift of some value from a litigant in a case before him," said New York University law professor Stephen Gillers.
"It is not just a trip with a litigant. It's a trip at the expense of the litigant. This is an easy case for stepping aside."
