The truth about lie detectors ...

I seriously thought this was a joke at first:

This is a story about the white house administering a lie detector test to the Clinton administration's security advisor Sandy Berger to see if they can blame some white house missing papers on Clinton's administration.

This is a sleeper story that will break new ground for future cases.

Have ya'll ever taken a lie detector test?

I have ... I was scared too, but I told the truth.

We had a teenager working with us (a long time ago) that would tell some real whopper lies. He would volunteer information about his father being a race car driver and stuff like that. We all knew he was lying, right? The boss even talked about it and said, "Wait till he has to take his quarterly polygraph test.

Well his turn came and went and nothing happened to him. They didn't fire him or nothing that is, but somehow it got explained to us other workers that a real liar can go so far as to believe his own lies and therefore pass a polygraph test.

Strange, but true ...
