Some people are far better than others in telling lies and some are better in telling the truth. Some people speak clearly and everyone knows what they mean and others are not so good at communicating.

It is going to be a beautiful day in The Villages.
I think this thread is NOT about us as individuals except using as an example in some cases, was about public acceptance of facts, not personal. Each determines on a personal level who is a lair and not....each of us, as you say has fibbed for sure, but we are talking about media and public...that was clearly stated in the OP and beyond.

LIARS in the public arena are much worse in that they reach millions and millions with lies, whether they be an opinion presenter on TV or an elected official or named department head. THESE LIARS affect all our lives. What you speak of is simply a matter of being selective and wise, but funny how we all say we will not accept liars in our personal life but we seem to accept them, as presented in this thread, where they are named, elected or hired to protect the truth.
