05/18/10 Adam Wheeler, Richard Blumenthal both have something in common


Both Adam Wheeler, a college student, and Richard Blumenthal, an Attorney General, reportedly lied about their qualifications

Richard Blumenthal has admitted to “misstatements” about his record in Vietnam, according to the Associated Press.

Adam Wheeler, a Harvard “student” and Richard Blumenthal, a Democratic Attorney General currently running for Senator—and a Vietnam “veteran”—both have something in common: They’ve both been found to have lied about their qualifications and their experience.

In Adam Wheeler’s case, the former Harvard student was found to have falsified a lot of the information in his school applications and his scholarships, according to The Harvard Crimson. The Harvard student newspaper also report that Wheeler was charged with “20 counts of larceny, identity fraud, falsifying an endorsement or approval, and pretending to hold a degree.”
