This YouTube video making the rounds purports to catch Michelle Obama in a lie:
I doubt it. All this shows for sure is that she was wrong. Childhood memories are notoriously unreliable and are often created later in life. I’m sure that’s what happened here, since this is hardly something one would lie about.
We would do well to remember that false statements are not necessarily lies. One can be honest and still be mistaken.
POSTSCRIPT: Yes, I know the other side does it all the time. That’s beside the point.
