Yeah, I am very uncomfortable taking a polygraph test. I feel that it is a gross violation privacy, and if I cannot be trusted at my word, why should I trust them at theirs? Not to mention that everything I have read states there is no scientific evidence to support that the contraption works. Something about trusting my fate to someone that can ruin said fate by simply not liking me, is an absolutely horrible thought.

Sadly, if I don't do this I cannot work for this specific organization. It makes me feel kind of dirty to actually choose the side of evil just to get a job(like I am selling my soul to the devil)...

I will be completely honest with the polygrapher, and if I fail or if I don't obtain a clearance based on drug use from many years ago, than oh well.

(By the way, I saw the segment you did on British TV with the gentleman from Shaun of the Dead. Kudos for that, it was informative and entertaining)
