The FBI are big liars

For years the FBI said they couldn't release all of John Lennon's file because they were afraid of "military retaliation" against the United States. But it turns out they were just kidding.

"Today we can see that the national security claims the FBI has been making for 25 years were absurd from the beginning. The Lennon FBI file is a classic case of excessive government secrecy," Wiener said in a statement.

The released documents include one that states Lennon "encouraged the belief that he holds revolutionary views ... by the content of some of his songs."

Oooh, Imagine all the people, knowing the FBI is full of morons.
