I don't think lie detectors are 100% accurate. |

Justice is about reviewing verifiable facts and testimony, not what the two parties believe is or is not true.

It's easy to fool a lie detector. Remember what George Costanza said, "It's not a lie if you believe it." A good motto for the right wing when they make excuses for the Bush Iraq fiasco. |

They are not foolproof. Too many ways to defeat them. I like peanut butter. |

Because they have been proven to be unreliable. Innocent people can fail them and guilty people can pass them.
Creamy as in cheesy or rich or as in texture like creamy peanut butter?
EDIT: is there any question that someone won't use to make a reference to Bush? |

while lie detectors are a good measure if a person is telling the truth they are not full proof, as such can not with stand a doubert test for the admission of scientific evidence into a court of law, |

Polygraphs are not absolute, sometimes they get false readings, plus it's time consuming. |

Lie detectors are notoriously unreliable. If a person believes they are telling the truth it will not register as a lie. Also some people are pathological liars and a polygraph will never be able to distinguish the truth from a lie with these people. For some people a polygraph will indicate a lie even when they are tell the truth. For these and many other reasons polygraphs have never been used in a court of law. |

The results of ploygraph exams are not accurate enough to serve as proof in legal matters. |

Twinkies are "creamy foods"...
Wal-Greens has some nifty $1 wafers that are fat free! And somewhat creamy!
Lie detectors can be fooled if the person "gets his mind right".
Mental reservations are another factor. A nervous tic or jittery-ness can nulify a test. Michael J Fox could abstain from medication and shake off all the sensors! |

Judges are trusted to make the careful and educated decision of whether a type of science is proven enough to be allowed as evidence in the courtroom. In the case of lie-detector tests, there is sufficient doubt as to the accuracy such that judges have decided that the results cannot be allowed in as proof. |

Because you cannot force someone to take one uless they have done a hell of a lot of wrong, and then it's very hard, so people aren't willing lots of times and two, some can pass even when lieing. |

A lie detector test results can be altered by the subject or the person administering the test. I have personally convinced a lie detector test that I was a mass murderer. I can't even step on a bug but I beat the test to prove a point. I like BBQ. |

A lie detector is not always accurate. There are many ways to beat a lie detector. It can be used as a tool to try to guide an investigation in the right direction. However, if we relied on lie detectors we would not need a legal system and it would be very flawed. Sometimes even the meaning of a question can be interpreted differently by the person asking the question versus the person asking the question. It is a lot more unreliable than people think. |
