Now that Liberals are trying to stir anger about Samuel Alito being a Conservative, Chucky Schumer is using some interesting tricks in the media. He is trying to make it seem as if Judge Alito has been withholding information, when just the opposite is true!

In response to the findings brought up in the MSM report that I linked in this other post. FoxNews quotes Senator Charles Schumer saying the following in response:

Also, the following Washington Post article mentions that and some other items I shot down in my prior post that is linked above.

But the fact is that there is no credibility gap at all! Judge Alito did cover his work for the Justice Department in his completed questionnaire.

This was the only question in the entire questionnaire where he could cover such work for the Justice Department and he mentions that he worked on a broad range of things over those years. He also mentions that all that could be publicly released has been submitted! Judge Alito has no control over what is released and it is possible that not everything can be released. So he was in no way “omitting” anything! But people like Chucky Schumer know that most people will never read the actual questionnaire, to know that he is telling a lie! Judge Alito said all that he could! And all that could be released was released! The latest memo release was a memo he wrote, but he was not leading work on that case! It is ridiculous to think that he would reference a memo he offered in lending advice to colleagues. Colleagues that were Conservative themselves! In actuality, Judge Alito’s memo was an effort to slow down their attempts to defeat Roe v. Wade and we know the attempt would have failed! So if anything, one could say that Judge Alito was playing the role of a more Liberal member of the staff in that case!

Also Schumer says:

Judge Alito never specified the Thornburgh case by name in this application letter that has been released. If Alito was thinking about the Thornburgh case then, it is more than a stretch to think that 20 years later he would recall a memo on a case he did not lead! Given he was speaking about years of work in the questionnaire, it would not make sense to add to that “oh yea and 20 years ago I wrote a memo to some colleagues that were taking an anti-abortion stance in a case” ! Sure he is a Conservative, but to think that he would bring up a memo given to colleagues that were working on a case 20 years ago is insane!

The Liberals are going to continue to play games with this one, but don’t be fooled! Alito did not withhold information about cases he was involved in! The questionnaire focuses mostly on cases he actually had a lead role in. And there is only that one question that ask about involvement outside of actual litigation! In response to that question Judge Alito honestly stated who he was working for then and that anything that could be made public would be given to them! Judge Alito was not leading that case, so I doubt there is anything else to release.

It is sad that Schumer and Kennedy want to press so hard for babies to continue being killed with the approval of government!
