A number of recovering alcoholics lie. Many lie. That is why a 12 step program like AA is good. Others who went through the program know what it is like. They can see through the lies. They can see through the lies and say, "You are a liar." Sometimes it takes a confrontation by someone who has been there. The same words do not have the same effect from someone who has not been there even though they are just as true!
