From the antipolygraph.org blog comes this story about 2 United States citizens of Pakistani descent being denied re-entry into the United States because of their refusal to submit to a polygraph examination. I find it amazing that this quackery remains a mainstay of law enforcement, particularly on something as important as terrorism investigation. Given how easy it is to beat a polygraph if you want to, does this mean that terrorists are getting into the country because some bureucrat in a white coat gave them a pass based on a polygraph result? (shakes head)
