Why does Justice Scalia hate Vice President Cheney?

The Progress Report notes that Scalia's refusal to recuse himself from the upcoming hearings on Dick Cheney's secret energy task force puts forward the notion "nothing the court says on those subjects will have any bearing upon the reputation and the integrity of Richard Cheney."

One can only presume that Justice Scalia holds his hunting buddy in such low esteem that he believes that even if the Court finds that Cheney conspired with his corporate patrons to engineer an energy profiteering scheme at the expense of the American people, Cheney's reputation and integrity have already sunken so low that it couldn't possibly hurt him.

Memo to Antonin - you might want to take a pass the next time you're offered a chance to be in the proximity of Dick Cheney while he has a loaded weapon...
