Here's a nice little hypothetical to ponder over.
Khadaffi was in the news swearing he was turning everything over and that was news for about a month then nothing has ever been said about it. We didn't even (as far as I know) go in and check, we took his word and the GOP used that to say look how scared he is. That's the factual part.
The hypothetical is: If you look at it like a parent with a drug abusing teen, the parent threatens, the teen says, "okay, here's my stash please don't search my room." The parent says, "cool, we respect you now for your honesty." And the parents back off.
The kid then goes and makes sure his real stash is untouched, buys more and flips the parents off.
In other words, Khadaffi didn't want us there searching to see what he may truly have so he gave us what he knew, we knew he had and laughed as he kept what we didn't know he had.
Just a weird hypothetical, that if you are paranoid like I am, is a possibility you can't just laugh away.
