16 People Caught Dead To Rights

Honesty is a catch 22. On the one hand, telling the truth is how many of us were raised — shout to my mother. Conversely, the truth can make a bad situation worse. Is it acceptable to tell a lie if the situation demands it? This is the very foundation the white lie was built on, is it not? I believe the saying goes, it's better to ask forgiveness than permission. Or maybe you prefer "what they don't know won't hurt them"? While I acknowledge that there are valid arguments for dishonesty, I am in no way condoning it (mother reads these sometimes, and she'd kill me if I didn't preface with that), I am merely playing devil's advocate for the liars and philanderers who made the list.
