[QUOTE="curiousbrain, post: 820267, member: 31608"] Ideally, I agree that people in powerful positions shouldn't lie about what they knew, when they knew it, etc. Practically, though, we all know they do - and they, at least in my own opinion, do it so that the people can continue to believe in the somewhat faux facade of accountability to the public. I use the phrase 'somewhat faux facade' because there occasionally is accountability, but it is more often than not in the form of scapegoating - although maybe that is what passes for accountability.
