Sweatin,

All of your arguments and hinting that you were probably trying to get a job with CIA aside, what exactly is your purpose in posting here?

Forget sympathy or understanding - you lost that as soon as you mentioned the phrase "which I had not indicated on paperwork."  Your implications that NO ONE applying for any of these jobs is within the stated drug policies is just plain stupid.  Many people meet the suitability policies for a given agency and yet still get disqualified by the polygraph.  Those people have my sympathy - not you.

In any event, the polygraph is in place and is not going anywhere in the near future.  You obviously feel very sorry for yourself because you were "duped."  Bitching about it here won't change anything.  If you admitted to nothing and were falsely labeled a liar, you might have other avenues to look into.  But not only did you admit to smoking weed, you more importantly admitted to lying.  Do you not see this?  

And finally...

I do not deserve the job... or having to lie to my friends/family about my employment... or the requirement to violate the laws of foreign nations risking imprisonment in some third world hellhole... nor applying my decades of noted military and commercial experience in the field while working under the duress of an employer who could terminate me at any moment that the so-called lie detector says that I'm being "deceptive"

I was wrong about CIA - you're applying to be in Under Siege 3, right?  Steven Seagal's replacement, maybe?  Are you fucking kidding me?  You're not impressing anyone with this bullshit man...  If you're so qualified to be the new 007, why the fuck are you smoking the wacky weed while under a government granted security clearance?  I guess all that military and commercial experience you mentioned doesn't cover common sense, does it?
