Every job interview is a conversation between liars.

This was no different.

I knew there was a reason I don't interview well. Other than being a dummy, that is.

Can you point out one lie told here? The answer is no. “Roe is important precedent” is a truth. Roe is important to both pro-life and pro-choice advocates for different reasons. And it’s very different from saying “Roe should not be overruled.” No lies were told here.

Exactly, and the defenders of these statements are going to pull the Clinton defense "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is"

Hmm.. wonder what's wrong with America? Where dishonesty is not only accepted, but the best lies win.

This. Confirmation hearings are literally saying what you need to say to get a job for life and cement your name in history books. You think these fucks don't know they literally get to interpret the laws how they please and what they say goes?!

Just another process with flaws unimaginable to simple people 300 years ago

Every job interview is a conversation between liars.

I conduct interviews for a technical area. My interview process is asking technical questions and looking for correct, technical answers. There is no gray. An answer is either correct or incorrect.

Can you point out where lying occurs there?

Don't get me wrong, I agree with the statement for this hearing. But can you really say "every"?

That really depends on the job. Most jobs that require a high degree of technical knowledge is usually pretty difficult to bullshit your way through. Your potential employer will still bullshit you on work life balance and stuff like that but it's hard for you to bullshit your way through on technical questions.
