-Mudd to Norman the android, just before Norman's brain blew up

What's the worst lie your governmetn has ever told you or your family?

Mine is There is peace in the Middle East, said by Reagan's State Department just before dropping the barricades, taking everybody there off danger pay, and re-staffing the Beirut embassy with civilians, in the first few weeks of April, 1983. On April 18th, 1983, terrorists car-bombed it and killed 70-odd people, among whom, many of you know, that beloved man known to me as daddy, between my end of college and graduation.
