Scalia's "Proudest Thing" on the Court

Speaking at the University of Connecticut's law school, Antonin Scalia said that the proudest thing he has done on the Supreme Court is his 2004 decision not to recuse himself from a case involving closed-door strategy sessions at the White House with leaders in the energy industry. Dick Cheney believed the sessions should be kept private, according to presidential priviledge. Just prior to the case, Scalia went on a hunting trip in which Cheney also went.

I suppose that standing up to media and political pressure would make anyone proud.
