	A comment I ran across in an article on Accuracy in Media about Robert Hanssen. Quote: The Bureau's "most senior managers" refused to polygraph their own personnel "because of concerns regarding false positives." Given that the Bureau is always eager to use the polygraph on any outsider, that is supremely ironic. Ironic, indeed http://www.aim.org/publications/weekly_column/2003/08/27.html

	Seems to me like the FBI dropped the ball. I would think that most people would find hacking your boss's computer, disclosure of sensitive information to the press, and assult on another employee as grounds for firing. If the FBI can't accurately police their own, how can they be an effective police agency for the rest of us? Regarding the polygraph... It's interesting to note that the FBI accused a CIA man of being the spy and used his passing the polygraph as a clue to him being guilty (super spy theory).... Yet in this article it is the FBI that doubts the accuracy of the polygraph when it comes to their (the white men at the top) necks! I know there are thousands of dedicated people at the FBI who work hard to protect our nation, unfortunately those people don't seem to be in charge. If polygraphy is not good enough for FBI top management, then it is not good enough for a green recruit.

	Suethem, I agree. What's good for the goose is good for the gander, so the saying goes.
