On 6 September, following the release of Tucker Carlson's interview with Larry Sinclair, Luke Rudkowski, who runs a YouTube channel called WeAreChange, spoke with Larry Sinclair in a live stream. In this case, the polygraph was directly addressed. The following link begins at the point where Rudkowski asks Sinclair about the lie detector:

The interview is here:

https://twitter.com/TuckerCarlson/status/1699543001473900670

Larry only mentions the polygraph around from the 32:23 - 32:40 mark when he speaks about losing access to his YouTube account shortly after taking a polygraph test.  That is all. Tucker Carlson does not ask Larry anything about the polygraph test.

I guess the polygraph is still not a big political issue because it only applies to a select few people and the majority of the world still think it works based on TV and movies.

It's not clear whether the topic of Sinclair's polygraph examination will be raised, but there is considerable discussion of it on X at the moment.

Quote from: stefano on Sep 13, 2011, 11:05 PMInteresting post. In Mr. Barland's conclusion he states:

"I believe that the irregularities in this examination would be more likely to create an inconclusive result than an erroneous one."

Really Mr. Barland?--you have conducted experiments to show you can predict how an "irregularity" affects the tracings? It never fails to amaze me how these polygraphers pull such things out of their hats; it's akin to Astrology and Phrenology.

Irregularities also imply deviation from a standard. What's that standard? What are the deviations from it?

I think the most interesting revelation from the video is that it appears that PolyScore had Sinclair passing both question series. It's interesting that PolyScore arrived at results that are the polar opposites of those reached by Gelb and Barland in their hand-scoring of the charts.

A video recording of Edward Gelb's polygraph examination of Larry Sinclair was offered as evidence in Parisi v. Sinclair (Case 1:10-CV-00897-RJL in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia). The video may be viewed on-line here:

Based on the video and previously-released documentation, I have prepared a critique and evaluation of Gelb's polygraph examination of Larry Sinclair, which is attached to this post.

On Monday, 28 February 2011, a hearing was held in Parisi v. Sinclair et al. on a motion to dismiss. Blogger and lawyer Andrew Kreig attended the hearing and has an interesting commentary on why this case, which has received virtually no media coverage, has significant constitutional implications. See "Libel Suit Hearing In DC Explores Political Free Press Issues."

Since this topic was last discussed here, Larry Sinclair has published a book (which I haven't read) in which he discusses, among other things, the polygraph examination that Dan Parisi arranged for him to undergo with Ed Gelb in Los Angeles.

Parisi has now filed a defamation lawsuit (see attached PDF) against Sinclair (and others):

Obama Accuser Accused
By RYAN ABBOTT

     WASHINGTON (CN) - A political blogger claims a gadfly defamed him with "wild allegations" about colluding with then-Senator Barack Obama's campaign to hide the murder of a church choir director, cocaine use and gay sex. Daniel Parisi sued Larry Sinclair in Federal Court, and also sued a radio talk show host, Sinclair Publishing, Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com, and Books-a-Million.

     Parisi claims Sinclair published a book in 2009 that accuses him of colluding with Obama's adviser David Axelrod to rig a polygraph exam that would debunk Sinclair's story that he had sex and took cocaine with then-Senator Obama.

     Parisi claims that in 2008 Sinclair posted "wild allegations regarding the purchase, sale and use of drugs and sexual activity by and between Sinclair and Obama," on YouTube. That video was still posted on YouTube this morning (Thursday).

     Parisi says Sinclair's book is riddled with false information, including that he criminally conspired with Obama and his campaign; that he accepted money from the campaign; that he rigged Sinclair's polygraph; that he and Obama were somehow involved in the murder of a church choir master; and that his website, Whitehouse.com, contained pornography.

     Parisi claims that Barnes & Noble, Amazon and Books-A-Million sell Sinclair's book with claims such as "100% true," and "staggeringly true story," to sell the concoction of nonsense.

     "Sinclair's book and the statements published by other defendants did not contain a scintilla of factual support for their wildly false and reckless untrue statements," Parisi says.

     Parisi claims he sent a cease-and-desist order to Sinclair, who responded, "HELL, NO."

     In his complaint, Parisi says his own website, Whitehouse.com, "paid Sinclair $20,000 by check as part of a modified agreement" for Sinclair to take a polygraph exam. Parisi claims the "modified agreement" came after "He [Parisi] offered to pay Sinclair $10,000 to take polygraph examinations and it pay him $100,000 if the examinations showed Sinclair was telling the truth. Whitehouse.com, Inc. later paid Sinclair $20,000 by check as part of a modified agreement."

     Parisi claims Sinclair "showed deception" on both his polygraph exams, and never produced the evidence he claimed to have.

     Parisi seeks millions of dollars for defamation and business disparagement. He also sued radio talk show host Jeffrey Rense, of Ashland, Ore.

     Parisi is represented by Richard Oparil with Patton Boggs.

It's interesting how pornographers are becoming such big consumers of polygraph exams nowadays.  It strikes me just how many similarities there are between them and the two biggest consumers of polygraphs: the United States government and law enforcement agencies.

Michael,

Keeping in mind that polygraphy itself is as fishy as a basket of herring left to rot under the sun for several days, yes -- as I've explained earlier in this message thread -- there is something particularly fishy about the manner in which the polygraph examination arranged by WhiteHouse.com for Larry Sinclair was conducted.

At the same time, I'm not suggesting that Sinclair's allegations against Barack Obama are true (far from it!), nor is it my purpose to extend hope to the lunatic fringe who desperately want to believe Sinclair and grasp at the straw of his questionable polygraph results for succor.
