If you put any case ever heard by the Court on the table, conflicts of interest can be found. If you don't think some Justices had conflicts of interest in the Gore V Bush case, you need to take some time and re-visit the case and some of the history. You consequently make claims about my supposed indefensible positions and eventually you hide from the truth.
When I press for clarity you fail to provide it. There are clear differences between general conflicts of interest, and perpetuating a fraud leading to the direct enrichment personally and/or of family members. When I asked for proof of how Thomas' spouses actions was a violation of the code, the point was dismissed.
Again, if you ever decide to get serious, let me know.

ace, its hard to get serious when you post such nonsense.
You clearly dont understand or are unwilling to acknowledge the difference between justices having known ideologies as opposes to justices with those known ideologies being paid by parties with similar ideologies.
Now you are claiming that any case put before the Court has conflicts of interest.
Tell me, ace, in the DC gun ban case, which justice was paid to speak at an event sponsored by the NRA or whose spouse works for the Brady Center?
In the Arizona decided this week regarding employers hiring illegal immigrants, which justice was paid to speak at an event sponsored by the AZ Chamber of Commerce or whose spouse works for an immigration advocacy organization?
You want me to get serious? Certainly, when you stop raising these bullshit assertions about conflict resulting from a presidential nomination, infringement of free speech of justices and/or spouses, alleging that all cases have conflicts of interest....
You do try one's patience with your nonsense, but I'm done with you on this one.
