Polygraph for Sandy Berger to be studied
World Net Daily ^ | May 8, 2007 | World Net Daily

The response from Tony Snow came on a question from Les Kinsolving, WND's correspondent at the White House.

"Congressman Tom Davis and 17 other Republican House members have called on Attorney General Gonzales, Department of Justice, to administer the polygraph test that Sandy Berger agreed to in paragraph 11 of his plea agreement. And my question, could you give us a substantial answer to these Republicans' request of the Bush administration?" Kinsolving asked.

What’s the point? Polygraphs don’t work.

Polygraphs are unreliable (having no scientific basis) and are easily fooled. See AntiPolygraph.org for the truth about lie detectors.

Work or not, the Government still has faith in them and issues them all the time.

They do, and why has this taken so long ? Why does Bush always let these people off the hook? How long are we to carry the water for this guy when this should have been done long ago and the results let out ? and if they do question this guy , it has to be tough questions.

the efficacy of polygraphs not withstanding, this administration is too compassionate to hurt a democrat.

They are wusses.

Obviously, Senator Sose (D,NY) has FBI files on Gonzo
so he will NEVER go after any Democrat, especially Berger or Clinton.

Indeed, polygraphs don't work. For a thorough debunking, see The Lie Behind the Lie Detector (1 mb PDF). Those insisting on polygraph Berger are making fools of themselves.

Crazy Les reporting for World Nut Daily.

It really does press the question of how much bogosity it takes to create a black hole from which no credibility can escape.

They don’t work on pathological liars. If the person truly believes the lie, the body does not change it’s response. Berger and the Clintoids are safe here.

i totally agree. If Berger was a Republican the entire planet would be screaming for his head. It would be headline news 24/7. I have a friend who swears the Dems have something BIG on some important Republicans and thats why we NEVER ,EVER, go after the Dems , even when it’s obvious they are in the wrong. Who knows ?I can’t figure it for the life of me .

I like your screen name.

I'm not going to pretend to the answers to your questions.

There are a lot of poli ticks going on I don't understand.

I just know they work on me.
