The government are people too and deserve protection against untrue allegations as well.

Russ, what he said is kind of true. They'd probably give a press conference and deny it and that would be that. Look at all the accusations the UK and US governments have had over years, not just the last year. I'm not sure the government as an entity could sue anyone. Blair could as a citizen though I suppose, but generally they don't bother.
Like Damien said, you, and every other citizen is a different matter.
