The Murdoch family's Wall Street Journal editorial page is so often a forum for right-wing extremism (corporate branch) that it's not really surprising to see the Journal go all the way with Alito's risible alibis.
Two immediate thoughts:
-- He lives in a world where this kind of corruption is normal, so he can't imagine that what he did was wrong.
-- What we know about him and Thomas feels like tip-of-iceberg stuff. Maybe someday we'll know how deep it goes.
