>If a kid can make an altered speech (which is obvious - it's not done that well) saying something Bush didn't say, then how hard is it to alter any one else's word on tape or video when done by experts? I think more & more people are coming to understand how easy it is to manipulate the words coming from the "enemy camp".
I think it is possible but unlikely. While the US gov't is not always exactly honest, I don't think it would do something as potentially embarrassing. It just doesn't have what Richard Nixon called "plausible deniability".
