Why Do Presidents Lie ?
Alen J Salerian MD
We all know many great
men- some of them our presidents- have lied. What does this mean?
Did Eisenhower,
Roosevelt Kennedy, Johnson, Clinton ,Nixon ,Bush lie for the same reason ?
People lie for different reasons. You may lie to help others
that was what I suppose Roosevelt did
about Pearl Harbor ?
Roosevelt Kennedy Clinton Johnson had extramarital affairs . We
can say they were dishonest with their spouses and not necessarily with us. Bush could claim honorable intentions when he lied about Saddam's weapons of mass destruction because he
thought Saddam was bad for America.
Johnson lied about his participation in JFKs death and declaring war on Vietnam
possibly because he thought our national interests were better served by war.
Why did Brian Williams lie? Was it an underlying self-esteem
issue? Was it worse than Nixon's Watergate? Should we ignore some of the lies
of public figures or presidents?
I say we should. I still wish my president pledge to us that he
or she is not going to lie to us about things that may impact our lives.
