George Washington
Once he said it was "Tell Me A Lie," but he also said it was "I Want."
I cannot tell a lie. Because he chopped down a cherry tree and his dad asked him if he did and he said no but then he said "I cannot tell a bad lie"
He said he cannot tell a lie
Because he could never tell a lie.
There is a famous apocryphal story that George Washington cut down his father's prize cherry tree with his new axe and said when questioned ,confessed with the words, "I can not tell a lie.". Lincoln was known as "Honest Abe".
the president that said the quote ABOVE ALL TELL THE TRUTH is Grover Cleveland
In one interview he said it was "Tell Me A Lie" but in an other he said it was "I Want"
You DON'T need to lie often. But you can LIE AND tell the TRUTH at the same time. MY method is to tell my self in OTHER circumstances that it is the truth and it works. Tell the person your "LIE" and it might even work.
As a personal code of conduct, never lie to anyone about anything. As an old sage once said; "Always tell the truth so you don't have to remember the lie."
Tell Me a Lie was created in 1983.
Representative Joe Wilson, Republican of South Carolina
