You know what in life i've learned 99.5% percent of the time I think the truth is by far the best outcome. So let me just say, I'd probably actually be p.o'd if he sat up there in front of america and tried to lie instead. I'd have to say I'd rather hear the truth even if it hurts more. I dunno, just me. I can see maybe fudging a little to avoid hurting someone, but in the long run the truth is the best answer,,, ;-)
