There seem to be now three categories of witness: (1) Speak the truth; (2) Be political; or (3) Lie. (1) and (3) require no explanation. To be political, one may tell a lie if that lie serves to advance a greater truth.
Trouble is that this completely and precisely explains why politics is ruining so many things. A lie is false witness, regardless of its "good" intentions. To accept lying is a precursor to further elimination of trust, class, and propriety.
