It's a metaphor for people who don't quite know the situation at hand but will make it seem like they do with a lie or an answer relative to the situation in question.
And these "Answers" apply to that of your question, dood. Nice work.

i think it means you don't know the truth but to show people and make yourself look good you will make up a lie to cover up the truth.

Think BUSH-- Think IRAQ
The Big Lie is a propaganda technique. It was defined by Adolf Hitler in his 1925 autobiography Mein Kampf as a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously".
The English follow the principle that when one lies, one should lie big, and stick to it. They keep up their lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous."
The phrase was also used in a report prepared during the war by the United States Office of Strategic Services in describing Hitler's psychological profile:
"His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it."

You'll make up excuses and represent that as the "truth," if you don't know what it is.
