"Order in the Court!" Should this conflicted Judge have already RECUSED?

in STOP FORECLOSURE FRAUD

“If judges are going to accept the spoils of big money politics, they must accept a new duty: deciding when to step aside to assure justice. After all, judges are supposed to be accountable to the Constitution, not special-interest supporters. They take an oath to deliver due process under the law without regard to who voted for them or spent the most to help elect them.”

- Justice at Stake Executive Director, Bert Brandenburg

The letter is from Barry Richard, a well-connected lawyer at Greenberg Traurig (he was part of the Bush 2000 team in Florida.) Richard attacks June Clarkson for her conduct during a meeting with his client. Specifically, he felt she was too aggressive with her questioning. In the key sentence he says:
“I have represented many clients being investigated by the Attorney General’s
Office over the past 30 years and I do not recall a single instance in which the
Office requested or subpoenaed a client for a sworn statement in a civil case of
 this type.”

Contributions to a Nevada Judge Basis for Disqualification

The question of Judge Gonzalez's impartiality stems from five political contributions
made in 2010 to Judge Gonzalez for his successful November 2010 reelection - $5,000
from Phil Ivey, $1,000 from Phil's divorce attorney, David Chesnoff, $2,500 from
Chesnoff's wife, $1,000 from Chesnoff's law partner, and $500 from Attorney John
Spilotro . . .
Nevertheless Nevada law bars judges from presiding over cases in which they have
"actual bias or prejudice for or against one of the parties."  . . .
The Nevada Supreme Court has taken this a step further by holding that a "recusal 
would be a necessary step to alleviate or obviate" even the appearance of 
impropriety,  while the Nevada Code of Judicial Conduct has held that "a judge is
disqualified whenever the judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned."
However the Nevada Supreme Court, following the U.S. Supreme Court in Caperton
v. A. T.  Massey Coal Co., 129 S. Ct. 2252 (2009), has expressly rejected proposals
that would dictate what amount of political contribution would give rise to a judicial
disqualification....

Nevada Judge Steps Aside Again in Light of Campaign Contributions

Lauren Ketchum March 30th, 2012 | Category: Recusal
    Nevada District Judge Brent Adams has recused himself from a case for the second time after concerns that campaign money he received from one of the parties created an “appearance of impropriety.”

Citing an explosion of big spending on judicial elections as  documented by Justice at Stake, the Center for American Progress  has issued a policy paper entitled, “Strong Recusal Rules Are Crucial  to Judicial Integrity.”
__________________________________________________________
Justice at Stake Executive Director Bert Brandenburg called for more rigorous recusal rules in a Chicago Tribune op-ed in September 2011. He wrote:
“If judges are going to accept the spoils of big money politics, they must accept a new duty: deciding when to step aside to assure justice. After all, judges are supposed to be accountable to the Constitution, not special-interest supporters.
