Actually Alito may be in trouble, turns out he may have lied on his resume. The whole issue revolves around Alito claiming membership with a Princeton alumni group and putting it on his Resume in 1985. When confronted this man, who imho is very bright in legal matters and can quote facts almost as well as Roberts, claimed he couldn't remember.
Specter: No mention of Alito in Princeton group's filesquote - "The files contain minutes and attendance records from CAP meetings in 1983 and 1984, just before Samuel Alito listed the organization on his job application, but Samuel Alito did not attend any of those meetings, at least according to those records," Specter said. "He's not even mentioned in the minutes." Alito, 55, has testified that he doesn't recall joining and has strongly denounced the group's purported support for admission restrictions on women and minorities. Princeton began admitting women when he was an undergraduate, a move he said he always supported.
Lying on a federal job application is grounds for dismissal, let alone what can we expect of someone who will lie to get a job.
As a side note, I caught a little bit of Rush yesterday referring to Specter in the confirmation. He went on the critisize Spector on his Raspy voice comparing him to Larry Flint ... That was his whole argument :roll:
