Does the government know any more than us?

I notice many have called upon the Obama administration to declassify what it knows about the UFO phenomenon. And why not? After all, President Obama did promise a transparent administration during the campaign.

But what happens if our government doesn’t know any more or much more than the rest of us? Albeit, there seems to be ample circumstantial evidence that crashes of UFOs have occurred, alien bodies recovered. But what if that is not true? A common government response to unexplainable UFO sightings goes something like "we investigated it and found the event poses no risk to national security." The statements always seem to stay away from any mention of whether the object came from our planet or not. It just says, essentially, "we don't know what it is either but don't worry, you're all safe." Not that our government ever shades the truth. Ok, you’re right, they shade the truth all the time. But it would make sense to say there is no need to worry. If you don't know what it is, why panic people? I could see a bureaucrat utilizing that kind of logic.

The fact is I don't know whether our government has alien corpses and crashed UFO parts in a secret warehouse somewhere. I've heard persuasive arguments that they do and that they do not. But it did occur to me that our government might be just as puzzled about what all these unexplainable UFO sightings mean as the rest of us
