So scalia should recuse from every case brought by a church? Or the Bush admin. Just supporting what someone does seems to be a pretty weak basis on which to recuse. It would require judges to recuse themselves on anything on which they've formed an opinion.
And, btw, is there any evidence she personally approved the donations to the ACLU? Perhaps she voted against it. Or it's decided by someone else within the organization who does not report to her.
