Am I the only one here wondering "Why are you answering questions at all?" The Fifth Amendment still applies at the border and you aren't going to talk your way out of anything. When asked a question at the border -- IF you are a US citizen, shut up. Don't say anything. You are more likely to get in trouble for making a false statement to a federal office than to talk your way out of something. You can't be denied entry to the country for not answering questions. Just shut up. You have the right to remain silent. Use it.
