Very nice expression - I assume you permit me to use this in discussions -
I would not tell about the source.
Only the fact that I (and everyone else) was under orders not to

Why should they check the rate out in the middle of the bay? This would
have confused their reasoning. It might have resulted in letting their
campaign collaps. - I have on my desk in my office a mat with the
inscription: "Do not confuse me with facts, I have made up my opinion!"
This is my sarcastic comment - but I cannot tell anybody, how to fight this
incredible nonsense distributed by mass media and "experts". Maybe only
patience and yearlong patient public relation work might help.
