Those who perform counterintelligence-type polygraph screening are performing no less (or should I say no more) than voodoo--quackery that has no scientific underpinnings, no theoretical basis, and has allowed major spies to continue their nefarious activities, never revealed a spy, and injured numerous innocent examinees  (many of whom have chronicled their experiences over the past few years on this site.  I would maintain that those who conduct such exams are clearly blameworthy...they are either willfully ignorant, in disgrace (don't care about the damage they cause), or are cowardly (afraid to tell their employers of the inherent weaknesses and dangers of what they do for a living).

I really get tired of hearing the same whine from you guys.  Tell me how you know polygraph has never uncovered a spy or espionage.  Do you think that every spy and espionage case ends up on the front page of the Chicago Tribune?  I can say with good confidence polygraph has indeed uncovered espionage cases in the US.  You sound like another George M who failed his CSP.

I know it was a while ago but you stated in your earlier thread the examiner showed you the stim chart and you said "there was no indication of you lying" although you did.  Did you evaluate the chart?  Did the examiner tell you there was no indication you were lying?  Just curious because the average examinee doesn't have chart evaluation experience.

Care to elaborate? Or would you have have to kill us all after divulging these national security issues?

If what you're saying is true, it would imply that the 3-letter agencies want to let the public know every time they screw up, but keep things quiet when they get it right. Doesn't sound like any government agency I've ever had to deal with.

DRUGSAREBAD,

Sounds to me like you passed the exam.  Everything I heard from your previous posts and the fact that you're moving on in the process tells me you did fine.

Orolan,

Sounds like every government (national security or LE) agency to me.  They don't intend to publicize anything, victories or failures. But we hold our government accountable, so it's hard to keep the failures under wraps.   

Take the war on terrorism for example.  Do you think successful attacks are the only ones that were ever planned; or do you believe your government might have thwarted many more?
