Lyeing with Integrity


Is there any good reason to lie? Is there any need for white lies as we call them?, little lies that are supposed to keep people's feelings from getting hurt. Maybe it is the consequences of these lies that we cannot or do no want to deal with. When people in positions of power such as Politicians lie, is it for our benefit or for theirs. Depends on the lie, I guess. If it's something like Bill Clinton's well publicised sexual indescretion then it's about his career. But if it's to do with discrepancies to do with budgets etc then it's the right of the public to know what's going on.
Whatever the reason may be it can at times be justified to tell certain lies in my opinion, but the big stinkers, no way, just fess up. In the end it all comes out.
