Researcher Finds Phony Credentials for Eight Executives

if we believe the cockroach theory, as in someone who lied once about something insignificant then they are likely lying about important things, why should we trust you? Besides, unlike those phony resumes your own transgression is much more serious, unless you are right that they smth more serious to hide.

More to the point, although lying and cheating are two of the original sins, they are not necessarily crimes according to the law. For example, lying to your wife about who you spent the night with is not a crime. In many cases cheating of various kinds is not criminal either, unless money is involved. In many such cases, there are no consequences even under civil law. This is how Bush or Clinton think they can get away with some of their behaviors - if it aint fraud it is ok. Personally, i dont endorse this point of view, but the culture in general is very permissive about these things.
