IIRC they give you a few tries over several return sessions before anything drastic happens. But I never left the room without passing on the first appointment.

Strzok was high up in the FBI counter-intelligence operation. We seem to be assuming in this thread that he failed the polygraph because of his affair. What if that wasn’t the reason? What if he’s a Russian or Chinese agent?

This ought to be seen as serious enough to bring down a lot of people and to result in complete reorganization of the counter-intelligence division.

That has a lot of us questioning this. On exactly what question did he get the wobbly lines? This is not a routine personnel matter which should deemed confidential. It is a matter of national security. It needs to answered.

It needs to go further than Strzok, though. Everyone who knew he failed and who did nothing about it is at best unsuited for counter-intelligence work. They need to be removed and investigated, too.

I support that. Even now, Sessions would be justified to have all persons who knew that Strzok failed a polygraph be relieved of their duties pending an investigation. But you know, Sessions.

Others have basically theorized that for decades, upper management in the FBI, if not other agencies, have believed themselves to be puppet masters and shot callers, fully entitled to be exempt from laws and ethics required of others, and entitled and empowered to ruin others with whom they have disagreements and/or grievances. They sustain this system by ensuring the recruiting, hiring, and promoting of people they see as being willing to adhere to the way of doing business the upper management practices.

That being said, Congress has oversight and it could have broken this system years ago. Congress has done nothing significant, and there is no reason to believe that Congress will attempt to do anything significant in the future. After all, the FBI has ALL their files.

"Really; so you think Sessions is a great asset to Trump and helping stop the coup plotters?"

I would like to see this witch hunt ended. But what I can't ignore, is that the longer it goes on, the more corruption of the Democrats and deep state agencies it exposes.

Your faith is strong. I hope it is rewarded, but I have a real problem with Sessions announcing his Russia and campaign recusal immediately upon being appointed without telling President Trump that he was going to do so. Trump has said repeatedly that, had he known, he would have selected someone else. That is a deliberate and very consequential betrayal by Sessions and cannot be explained by thinking he is playing some form of multidimensional chess.

********************************************************
This is it in a nutshell.

Sessions’s selfish sinful desire to be AG came at President Trump and the country’s expense.

121 more days until November 6.

A strong win will give President Trump the impetus to kick the trojan horse to the curb.

They actually go over the questions with you before the actual poly. I’ve had one. Funny thing the bp cuff kept falling off my arm.

Funny story. When we were supposed to get our polys, they staged a poly with one of the secretaries (can we still cal them that?) so we could see they were nothing to be feared. During the sample poly they asked her if she ever wore glasses. The machine registered something was amiss when she answered “no.” Didn’t matter how they phrased the question the result was the same. Finally she said she wore glasses to a meeting once to make herself look smarter. Everyone burst out laughing.

When Six Sigma came out our company decided to apply it to software. Management was going to use the statistics for software and process improvement. Or so they said. We thought it was a joke because they couldn’t define what a line of code was. We suggested they count semicolons for the C code because you could write a whole program on one line.

Anyway, they flew us up in groups for the training. Now the group I was in was paired with a group from our Canadian division, which was making money hand over fist for the company. None of them would get fired for asking embarrassing questions in the training. Also they were great to go to the bars with. It was in the bars that we fed the Canadiens the questions that begged asking like, “What’s the statistical chance that Management will misuse these statistics?”

She never wore glasses was true in the sense that she never needed a prescription and “had” to wear them vs. she wore glasses once to appear “smarter”. This is the distinction a polygraph can’t make but rather the interpretation the girl was making in her mind that the machine picked up on. It’s not a dishonest answer to say she never needed a prescription and “had to wear them. We know that people “beat” the machines a lot but it takes a mastery of one’s internal emotional responses and awareness.

True. But sure was a laugh knowing this secretary would do something like this.
