Every time I read one of these articles I think to myself...why do we constantly see so many movie remakes when the fantastic lies right here.  You want a scary vampire movie?  Just focus on the real underground vampire culture.  You want a terrifying ghost related film...well, this article just gave you the scenario.  Sigh, makes me really miss the X-Files when it was in its prime.  

And the US Government is training psychic spies to track the ghosts of dinosaurs?  Your tax dollars at work.

It's worth noting that those running for government office (particularly so in recent years) spend significant amounts of money talking about God and promoting their religious beliefs (purely because it will help them secure votes - it's a totally cynical ploy). But there's no more proof for God than there is for Nessie. So, yep, government's - and people in government or running for government - spend a lot of money on things that are either elusive or just simply don't exist.
