We do if they lie about their role in a particular case. In other words if they deny advocating for someone/thing when they clearly did.

Barbour denied being directly involved.

I would add that anyone who says this (from Darth’s link):

The provision was not renewed. Since then, most Republican leaders have opposed a path to citizenship. Asked his view on allowing illegal immigrants to win legal status, Barbour demurred.

“Well, look, the first thing we have to do is we have to close the border,” he said Saturday. “Once we have a closed and secure, controlled border, then you can start talking about what should we do and what shouldn’t we do.”

…is a major weasel. There is no such thing as “a closed and secure, controlled border” when there are millions of people legally crossing it daily. That statement effectively gets him and all the other weasels out of saying “what we should do” for all eternity.
