Update on Alito and CAP

So now CAP's leader (who must be a wonderful gentleman) has provided a few boxes of CAP materials and "Alito's name doesn't appear in any of the documents," according to Arlen Specter. Specter seems to think this absence is a good thing. The 2006 Alito himself "can't recall" joining the group, even though the 1985 Alito thought they were cool enough to list on a job application.

Perhaps more disturbing than Alito's lack of recall might be the question of falsifying a resume. If, as Specter so gleefully speculates, Alito may not have been a member of this group, then he lied about being a member on his White House job application. Falsifying credentials has been the downfall of many an applicant, whether for fire chief or football coach. I wonder if the same standard applies for Supreme Court justice.
