Back to this guy: it was kind of easy to make up/embellish crap in the pre-internet/no real privacy days. 1990s: Guy says he's qualified as a commercial pilot? OK, fine. He's a pilot, so what, I'm gonna dig through some paper records in the Government Documents floor of the library to see if his name shows up, or I'm going to send some kind of request to the FAA and wait for a response. So why not? And this particular lie appears to be one that dates from those days. So you make up a fake credential, you can't just drop it suddenly ... it follows you. I don't think this disqualifies him in any way. I also imagine that any commercial pilots who worked for him knew damn well that this was a lie. Whatever. 1 1

Why dipsh*ts like Walz and Blumenthal would embellish their service records is anyone’s guess. Seems like most of them tend to land on their feet.

Because embellishment becomes a habit that's hard to break. Particularly for politicians: you say it once, it's on the record, it's awfully hard to back down with the old "I misspoke." It's also hard to tell what worked and what didn't work in getting you elected in the first place. If we disqualify everyone who b.s.'d their credentials there wouldn't be anyone left. 1
