I find it hard to believe any rationale person would believe ANYTHING the government has to say. I'm not sure if it has always been this way but now-a-days, and even with as bad as the media is, it's perfectly clear that the government will lie about anything it feels like. It's not just fiction and movies, we KNOW this from recently recorded history. Further, we don't even know if the "whitehouse" is blatantly lying or if they are being lied to by the intelligence organizations because we also know now that they will lie about ANYTHING to other parts of the government including the executive. So any time people start immediately pointing fingers at the POTUS and "whitehouse" I can see what their agenda is. It's so messed up there is no telling where the lies are originating from. Maybe the CIA/NSA should change their missions statement to "provide the truth". Whatever else they are aren't they supposed to be "intelligence" organizations? What good are they if they provide bad information?!
