There certainly are a LOT of liars trying to get into the FBI!!

Thank God we have the polygraph to screen them out!

The Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection started their pre employment polygraph about two years ago.  I would interested to see their numbers and how they compare to the FBI.
