Yes, our gov't should be trusted as much as any gov't should be trusted in general. What should not be trusted at all is any statement or activity associated with the Bush administration.
I have hopes that the system will correct itself, as Bush and Co are forced to vacate their positions of power.

Re: The whole government?
Republicans or Democrats don't get to decide that. The Supreme Court does.
But doesn't that statement make a huge assumption? I think we have already seen political bias within the court, and Bush has been stocking it (or attempting to) with further politically biased members.
