In the President's speech today, he basically made the case that more regulations and restraints on the energy sector, to your point, would be good for our economy and create jobs. Regulations creating jobs? I know none of us in here believe that, and I know we've never heard from one constituent who owns a business that regulations, more regulations, create jobs. And furthermore, this is the same President that tried to sell us Solyndra. And we're going to take this, we're going to take him at his word? It's really unbelievable.

Were a judge to specify the nature of every recusal explicitly... the effect could be to expose personal information needlessly about the litigant and/or prejudice the litigant before the judge's colleagues.

I have made clear how woefully incomplete this process has been, how the minority's rights to a hearing have been completely disregarded.
