Putting Sandy Berger to the test (He refuses to take court ordered Lie Detector)

As the FNC story points out, the document-filching Clinton aide did agree to take a polygraph test as part of a plea deal reached in September 2005. Now, some GOP lawmakers want to know why the Justice Department won't follow through:

The Justice Department should administer a polygraph test to former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger to find out what documents he took from the National Archives in 2002 and 2003, Rep. Tom Davis wrote in a letter to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales dated Monday. Davis, ranking Republican on the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, is leading a group of 18 lawmakers who say the Justice Department has been "remarkably incurious" about Berger's decision to remove documents relating to the Sept. 11 commission's inquiry into his role in helping prevent terror attacks during the Clinton administration.

"It is extraordinarily important that the Justice Department avail itself of its rights under the plea agreement and administer a polygraph examination to Mr. Berger to question him about the extent of his thievery.

A man of honor would step up and tell the whole truth about what he did.

What about it, Sandy Berger? What kind of man are you? What kind of man do you want history to say that you were?

This whole Plea agreement is a joke. Nobody appears to want to know what Burglar was doing or what he destroyed.

They say, it's much harder to lie when your clothes are too tight.

I agree. If he is a sociopath and agreed to take one, he could fool it anyway. A complete joke and a waste of time. They might as well use a ouija board for crying outloud.

That's a no-brainer. He's a Clinton flunky. No balls, no principles.

Exactly -- because it really shows the TOTAL incompetence and negligence of Washington in total. They don't want you to see that.

"Polygraphs are a joke. Voodoo police work."

They serve as a psychological rubber hose! When they do work, its on the average joe who made a mistake while being a mostly pro-social person. Psychopaths beat them every time. So it can be said, government use of polygraphs (and voice stress analyzers) selects the psychopaths as truthful over the conscience possessing average joe!

So why doesn't Berger take the test? Especially if he has nothing to hide? Oh, I see. Maybe he does have something to hide?

No matter at this point. It is part of the plea agreement. Make him take the ploygraph, and if he refuses then cancel the plea deal and re-open the case against him for treason.
