Something that has been troubling me since the Roberts nomination: why do we allow ANY supreme court nominee to be nominated and agreed upon if their whole history is not available? If it were any job of serious note, these things would be requisite.
How can an Alito and Roberts get by with only releasing partial records like we're pulling teeth. If they want status as top notch judicials they should be open and honest. But instead they lie at every opportunity to get the job. This applies across the board. If you can't be fully honest, why should you be a JUDGE. the man that guages peoples honesty. the people that set the standard for everybody else as far as truth. If they don't fully disclose their judicial record, they shouldn't even apply.
