Okay, that was funny.
But I think there is a HUGE difference between deliberate lying and just forgetting something. You also have to take into consideration the meaning of the lie and its effect (either positive or negative) on others.
The analogy you give is really "apples and oranges."
Coach has defended/debated/explained his CLinton vote for a decade here. Last month, he moved to "I can't remember if I voted" despite us bumping his own threads about it. This month, he moved to "I never voted, and anyone who claims it is a liar, you can't prove it".
Nobody forgets ten years of defending/explaining such a vote. Seems to me that he just decided to invent a new scenario where I was lying, he never said that, I can't prove it, etc. All while lecturing me on integrity for accusing him of voting clinton. It's always those yelling "Integrity" the loudest...
