Gosh Stan:

You seem to be correct on two matters:
1)      There do seem to be a lot of you;
2)      Polygraph testing and the use of the results is based on circular logic.

The first seems to be obvious.  Where did you find that YesMan character?  I honestly have no idea who he is and, quite frankly, his inablity to grasp the English language well makes me wish he was not on my "side" in this debate. I hope there are not many more like him.  The second requires a bit of analysis.

When a citizen is asked to take a polygraph exam, refusal to do so either disqualifies a citizen from consideration for employment by the government (for certain positions) The polygraph's use for employment consideration is irrelevant to me, it is it's use as a tool to help guide LE in the right direction regarding a possible suspect that I agree with. or indicates to LE officials that the citizen has something to hide.  Should a citizen not ‘pass’ that unreliable exam the citizen is construed to be untruthful.  Not neccesarily, it just means that perhaps there's more there that LE must look into.  

All this is too reminiscent of scenes from Monty Python movies where circular logic is presented quite humorously.  Lloyd, it is not I that have been using circular logic, it is you as I pointed out already.  Attempting to turn your opponents arguemnt around on them is typical of someone with no actual basis for their own argument.  It is not so funny Stan when there are real life consequences to the flawed practice of polygraph testing.

Now, a citizen cannot protest the false results of a flawed procedure without being wrongly accused of guilty fear.  I will say this for the last time and then I will leave you all to your rantings (especially you Lloyd), Nobody has EVER been convicted of a crime based soley on having failed a polygraph test, PERIOD.  Unfortunately, innocent people occasionally go to jail.  This has never happened due SOLEY due to failure of a polygraph.  Have you ever considered doing stand up comedy?  Actually, I have considered it, and I'm thinking for my first joke I'll tell a story about a guy who poisoned his own wedding cake and when it was discovered, blamed the evil polygraph.
