I think he'd just aggressively mock people who asked him questions he didn't want to answer.

Do that long enough and often enough and you can get out of answering questions without technically having to lie.

You see that with the new guy, too: "You've never heard of a computer crashing before?"

I suppose they actually do lie a lot, but it's those zingers that convey false ideas without technically being lies that get people's attention, and allow press secretaries to maintain that they don't literally lie.
