Does that bother you at all - that a large number of Americans don’t necessarily believe what government bureaucrats might say in official communications, because there is no method to keep them accountable if and when they lie?

The way to resolve such differences of opinion and fact is in a CRIMINAL court of law.
Grand jury investigations are convened and a prosecuting attorney issues subpoenas to government bureaucrats and has them subjected to cross-examination with testimony given under oath with the threat of perjury hanging over their heads.
You say that there is no method of holding government officials accountable when they lie? My God woman, haven’t you ever heard of Watergate, Iran-Contra, Whitewater, CIA leaks-Valerie Plame affair or the indictment of Rod Blagojevich? Just to name a few.
Obama’s buddy Blagojevich was such a political liabliity that his own party, the Illinois Democrats, got rid of him in about three weeks time.
Take a gander at the major American political scandals in which government bureaucrats WERE held accountable including indictments, convictions, pardons, commutation of sentences, jail time and removal from office.
