Truthiness?

Are there good arguments against a law that says law enforcement officers cannot knowingly lie? I assume an "undercover" exception would need to be included, but once an officer has identified himself or herself as such, doesn't it make sense that they should be trustworthy?

The statment "or we can search your vehicle and can take you in" is in fact not true w/o evidence that would allow that search, which they didn't have when the statement was made...
