Ordinary private citizens aren’t held to judicial standards. There’s no requirement for construction workers or bus drivers or waitresses to be apolitical or to avoid the mere appearance of impropriety.[/quote]

Isn't Alito's wife one of those private citizens? [/quote]
Because she’s married to a Supreme Court justice, her house is also his house. Her income is also his income and must be reported. She’s not quite a private citizen, but not entirely bound by judicial standards. Fair or not, her activities can cast the appearance of impropriety on him.[/quote]

You're nutz. She can do as she damn well pleases.  She is a PRIVATE CITIZEN.

There is no nuance, regardless of how you would like to project your tyrannical wishes.

This is cut and dry.  Got it?  CUT AND DRY.[/quote]

You Republicans would go NUTS if Justice Jackson’s husband flew a Black Lives Matters flag. Or a Palestinian flag (and yes I know he’s Jewish). Admit it.

And yes I think it would be wrong for him to do that.

And even though I think the rainbow flag is neutral - it’s a joyful symbol of human rights and who doesn’t support those? - if Justice Jackson was going to be hearing a case involving gay rights it would be absolutely wrong for him to fly that at their home. [/quote]

DP and no, I wouldn't go nuts if her husband flew any kind of flag that he wanted to fly.  [/quote]
