On 14 October, papers across the country carried an AP story that made these two claims:

1. the Supreme Court announced that Justice Scalia recused himself from the Pledge of Allegiance case.

2. the Supreme Court announced it will decide whether the regular morning classroom salute is Constitutional.

Did Justice Scalia recuse himself from the case? Who knows?

Will the Supreme Court decide whether the Pledge is Constitutional? Probably not.

Now if we could just get the bastard to recuse himself from ALL the Court's cases, Democracy could breath a little easier.

I seem to recall from reading this some time back that Scalia said he would recuse himself if Newdow decided to represent himself in the case. Does anyone know if this is correct, and whether Newdow has so decided?
