It's just like the CIA prison network. The Bush administration fervently denies that they torture their captives, but meanwhile Cheney tries to get the senate to make exceptions for the CIA when they're trying to ban certain forms of torture.

If you're doing something controversial wich you believe is justified, at least have the guts and moral fibre to be honest about it.
Bingo, and there we get to the heart of the matter. Many people, including myself, would find the "my country, right or wrong" attitude slightly easier to adopt if they felt their government was being honest with them.
