Title: FBI Polygraphing Senators
Post by: Marty (Guest) on Aug 02, 2002, 02:39 AM
As just reported in the Wash Post, the FBI has interviewed a number of Senators and asked some of them to take polygraphs.  For some reason they have recieved less than complete cooperation. Among the reasons the Senators have refused includes "unreliability."  How could Senators possibly think the polygraph unreliable when they would be screened by the VERY BEST examiners the FBI has to offer. And we have all heard how a really good examiner is nearly perfect.

ROFLMAO

****From the Post****
Most of the lawmakers have told the FBI they would refuse a polygraph, citing the constitutional separation of powers between the legislative and executive branches of government and the unreliability of the exam, those involved in the inquiry said.
