Polygraph Expert Not a Ph.D?
Larry Sinclair's Full Statement
Sometimes, the more information you get, the more questions you have.
DBKP participated in a brief email exchange with Larry Sinclair Saturday, before he took his polygraph tests organized by whitehouse.com.
We had another brief exchange late Sunday night, after the polygraph tests were administered and whitehouse.com publicized their results as "showing deception".
Sinclair pointed us toward a personal webpage which contained a statement concerning the polygraph results and a couple of other interesting additions.
We'd addressed the statement in an earlier article. We're publishing the full text of Larry Sinclair's statement, as well as some information about the polygraph expert that administered the test, Sinclair's letter of February 4, 2007 to the Obama campaign and a comment from Reverse Speech.com.
While the issue of the polygraph expert's credentials may raise some eyebrows, we're publishing the rest without comment--the reader can draw his own conclusions.
We will only say that at this late hour, we've left our checking for tomorrow.
As we've stated before: at this point, no one but Larry Sinclair and Barack Obama knows the truth of the matter.
Everything else is conjecture--by proponents of both sides.
DBKP is attempting at the moment to check on a few details of the story: to either corroborate or disprove the story presented by Larry Sinclair.
We've gotten no help in this regard from Sinclair. We think that, while he had to know he was in for abuse by coming forth with this story, he's going to have to provide some hard evidence to shore is declining credibility.
We will only add that the Washington Post story--circulated in an email--that Sinclair refers to in his statement, is a fabrication (as we reported yesterday).
The following is the complete contents, minus one angry comment from an Obama supporter, of the site Larry Sinclair directed us to.
We'd also like to commend whitehouse.com for their organizing the polygraph tests--there were two, as well as a drug test--in an attempt to provide some information in the Larry Sinclair saga.
STATEMENT FROM LARRY SINCLAIR I am making this statement regarding the claims recently made against me and attributted to the WASHINGTON POST. FIRST The claims that I have an “extensive record of drug convictions” is in fact completely false and according to both the national new desk and city desk at the Washington Post has never been reported by anyone employed at this newspaper. SECOND The claims made that I “have been investigated eight times over the past 25 years for trying to secure money through “black male” and two of those involving politicians in IL and IN” also is in fact false and according to the Washington Post has never been reported by anyone employed at this newspaper. THIRD Dan Parisi of Whitehouse dot com has decided to ignore the conditions and agreement we entered into regarding the polygraph examination. Mr. Parisis has failed to provide the identity and contact information on the second Expert and in doing so has never obtained any agreement from me for using this individual. Mr. Parisi failed to provide information that I recently received from emails from people I do not even know, which shows Dr. Edward Ira Gelb has in fact misrepresented his own credentials before a case filed in front of the US Supreme Court. (attached below) fyi www.antipolygraph.com/articles/article-036.shtml Gelb has publicly claimed to hold a Ph.D. degree in psychology since at least 1996. I***997, he represented himself as a Ph.D. to the highest court in the land -- the United States Supreme Court -- as a co-signer of the Committee of Concerned Social Scientists' amicus brief in U.S. v. Scheffer, where he is listed as "Ed Gelb, Ph.D." No, the "LaSalle University" that awarded Gelb his "doctorate" turns out to be a defunct, unaccredited diploma mill in Mandeville, Louisiana that was owned and operated by one Thomas James Kirk, A.K.A. Thomas McPherson. I***996, LaSalle was raided by the FBI, and i***997 Kirk pled guilty to federal fraud charges. (For more on the bogus LaSalle University, Mr. Edward I. Gelb is no Ph.D., and he should stop masquerading as such. In addition Mr. Parisi and his assistant refused to inform or allow me to be present during their meetings with Dr. Gelb in his office before, during and after the exams. Mr. Parisi and his assistant spent approximately two hours behind closed doors with Dr. Gelb before I was even introduced to him. During the examination process Dr. Gelb printed something off his computer and left the room telling me he would be back in five, only to return some 30 to 45 minutes later with Parisi’s assistant and an associate of Dr. Gelbs and then asked me to step out side for another 20 minutes before calling me back in to proceed with the exam. FOURTH Tonight (2-24-08) after Mr. Parisi refused to respond to my emails I posted on Whitehouse dot com the fact that Parisi this afternoon claimed he had not sent me copy of the results because he had not received them. Shortly after making that statement this afternoon Parisi’s assistant called saying they would fax the results in 15 minute, needless to say that never happened. Later Parisi claimed he had only then received a handwritten report faxed this date to him from Dr. Gelb and that he would wait to fax me the typed report. If Mr. Parisi fails to comply with our agreement by Monday 2-25-08 I will post all email communications with him concerning this matter and which clearly state the conditions for this arrangement. These emails will clearly show Mr. Parisi did not follow our agreement and I will consider at that time what course of action should be taken. It is only natural that I would become suspicious of Mr. Parisi after finding out he has misrepresented this expert, he has claimed I was examined by two (2) experts of which I agreed and yet I only met one and still have not been given the contact information to this date on the second. It needs to be made perfectly clear that I have from the very beginning demand all of this be done openly and with credible, unbiased, and apolitical individuals. These facts about Dr. Gelb make it hard for me to believe that Mr. Parisi can claim this person is unbiased and credible when he has misrepresented himself before the highest court in this Country. Mr. Parisi’s claims that I approved both experts is untrue because I was never given this person whole name or any contact information on him/her. I was simply told Gordo something in Salt Lake City. Thank you, Larry Sinclair |

Reverse Speech Stands by Its Sinclair Results
Whitehouse.com has announced a very limited and somewhat cryptic statement about the first portion of the polygraph examination test results for Larry Sinclair, the man who claimed he shared drugs and had gay sex with Barack Obama. Their official statement says "deception indicated." This rather nebulous remark throws no light on the actual 'deception' they are referring to during the four hour session. One wonders why WhiteHouse.com appears to be stringing this process out?
Reverse Speech.com, however, stands firmly by its reversal analysis of Larry Sinclair which indicate he is telling a true story. Reverse Speech found no 'deception' of any kind in Mr. Sinclair's accounting. Furthermore, Reverse Speech did find clearly conflcted and incongruent reversals in its evaluation of a number of campaign statements by Mr. Obama. Both Sinclair and Obama reversals can be heard here: http://reversespeech.com/obamadrugs.htm and http://www.reversespeech.com/obama.htm
It is extremely important to note that in its 24 year history, Reverse Speech has never once been proven to have been wrong or to have erred in determining a person's genuine truth spoken by that person's subconscious mind. Some of its successes can be seen here - http://www.reversespeech.com/trackrec.htm
The polygraph, on the other hand, has a vast history of documented failures of false positive and false negative results. In fact, Wikipedia states "A 1997 survey of 421 psychologists estimated the test's average accuracy at about 61%, a little better than chance." See more here - http://rense.com/general80/poly.htm
ReverseSpeech.com also wonders why Barack Obama has not come forward to refute Sinclair's claims, and is now calling on him to do so. Reverse Speech would welcome the opportunity to analyze Mr. Obama speaking directly about the Sinclair allegations.
Larry Sinclair's February 4 Letter to Obama campaign
Axelrod's need to contact me forthwith
From: Larry Sinclair (larysinclair0926@hotmail.com)
Sent: Mon 2/04/08 11:43 PM
To: info@akpmedia.com
This message is for David Axelrod. My name is Larry Sinclair. Attempts to leave messages for you with the Obama headquarters have not gone well.
I have been informed that you personally have stated the claims in my youtube video are untrue. I also understand that you personally in your capacity with the Obama camp has stated the Obama camp is conducting an investigation into me and my associates.
I have contacted legal counsel and have asked that civile litigation be filed forthwith against you and the Obama camp for conducting investigations in an attempt to prevent my truthful allegations against your candidate from becoming public and a national scale. I am also asking counsel to take action to determine if you and or the Obama camp have violated any federal or state laws in the funding of your invesstigation and/or attempts to keep the truth out of the election process.
Understand all you have to do is ask me about me, because I have been 100% open and honest about my life and every aspect of it.
I am sick of threats being sent by Obama staff and supporters, I am sick of Obama bloggers using edited versions of my video to slam other candidates who have nothing to do with me or my video.
I have notified the DNC that I intend to take action against them as well for ignoring complaint filed by me with them regarding your statements about the purpose for the posting of my video.
Understand you do not know me, and I assure you I will stand my ground on this, and I will defend myself against the false claims being made against me by you, Obama's camp, paid or unpaid staffers, and Mr. Obama personally if I find him to have knowledge of your actions.
I suggest you address this matter because I assure you it will not be going away anytime soon.

Is there really a "zombie drug"?
If there isn't, how can it be a "problem"?
In case you were wondering what CNN Headline News does to fill the time it didn't use to report on the John Edwards Love Child Scandal or ask questions about the Larry Sinclair-Barack Obama sex and drug allegations, we may the answer.
They spent 7 minutes a year ago on this "scary" documentary about scopolamine--a common ingredient in motion sickness medications.
In medicine scopolamine has 3 primary uses: treatment of nausea and motion sickness, treatment of intestinal cramping, and for ophthalmic purposes. Use as a general depressant and adjunct to narcotic painkillers is also common. The drug is less commonly used as a preanesthetic agent and uncommonly for some forms of Parkinsonism. Scopolamine is also used as an adjunct to narcotic analgesia, such as the product Twilight Sleep which contained morphine and scopolamine, some of the original formulations of Percodan and some European brands of methadone injection, as well as use of tablets or patches to combat nausea as well as enhance the pain-killing ability of various opioids. Scopolamine can be used as an occasional sleep aid and was available in some over the counter products in the United States for this purpose until November 1990.
Just in case you weren't sufficiently terrified by the weenie producer and his pantie-waist "Tales from the Dark World of Scopolamine", he:
1 soundtracked a cheesy voo-doo wailing music throughout the whole interview.
2 invented scary stories, i.e., "We were afraid he would blow some of this drug in our faces and steal our car."
3 Keep talking about how frightened people are of it.
4 Kept referring to scopolamine as "The Zombie Drug".
The only trick in the "drug demonization" handbook he left out was saying that blacks liked to use it to rape white women.
Watch the CNN "Report" and then you decide for yourself
Usually, demonization of a substance is the first step in getting more money appropriated so drug warriors can combat the new "demon drug".
The whole thing started with a couple books written back 1982 by a Canadian.
Wade Davis, a Canadian ethnobotanist, presented a pharmacological case for zombies in two books, The Serpent and the Rainbow (1985) and Passage of Darkness: The Ethnobiology of the Haitian Zombie (1988).
Davis traveled to Haiti in 1982 and, as a result of his investigations, claimed that a living person can be turned into a zombie by two special powders being entered into the blood stream (usually via a wound). The first, coup de poudre (French: 'powder strike'), induced a 'death-like' state because of tetrodotoxin (TTX), its key ingredient. Tetrodotoxin is the same lethal toxin found in the Japanese delicacy fugu, or pufferfish.
At near-lethal doses (LD50= 5-8µg/kg), it can leave a person in a state of near-death for several days, while the person continues to be conscious. The second powder, composed of dissociatives like datura, put the person in a zombie-like state where they seem to have no will of their own.
Davis also popularized the story of Clairvius Narcisse, who was claimed to have succumbed to this practice. There remains considerable skepticism about Davis's claims, although there is wide belief among the Haitian people of the existence of the "zombie drug". The Voodoon religion being somewhat secretive in its practices and codes, it can be very difficult for a foreign scientist to validate or invalidate such claims.
As always, we prefer to let the reader make up his own mind.
But if you ask us--and nobody did yet--we'd be quick with our decision of this "report".
Zombie drug, my ass.

Corrupt Cops, This Week in Drug History, Reforms, News, More!
Our January-February Special Edition of the "Failed War on Drugs" is a special combo edition that covers all that we've received in the last two months.
It takes a look at all aspects of the second longest-running war in U.S. history. Only the "War on Poverty" is older.
1 It's Safer to Be a Cop Than a Farmer

4 Vermont Looks into De-Criminalization; Wants to Crack Down on "Hard" Drugs
The Vermont legislature will this year take up a bill to decriminalize the personal possession, growing of two plants, and small-scale sales of marijuana.

For three decades, marijuana possession has been decriminalized in Nebraska, but now a state legislator has filed a bill, LB844, that would make it a misdemeanor punishable by up to 90 days in jail and a $500 fine. Currently, the maximum penalty for possession of less than one ounce is a $100 fine.
6 The Poppies Blossum in Iraq
British journalist Patrick Cockburn, writing in The Independent reports that opium poppy cultivation is rapidly spreading across Iraq.

19 British Police Chief Predicts Drugs will Be Legal in 10 years; Ecstasy Safer Than Aspirin
Richard Brunstrom, the Chief Constable of North Wales, has created a firestorm with comments made to the BBC that drug legalization is both desirable and inevitable and that ecstasy is "safer than aspirin."

In the latest move in his ongoing war against Mexico's powerful and violent drug trafficking organizations -- the so-called cartels -- President Felipe Calderon last month sent some 6,000 Mexican soldiers and federal police into the cities on his side of the Lower Rio Grande Valley, from Nuevo Laredo down to Matamoros. They disarmed the municipal police forces, who are widely suspected of being in the pay of the traffickers, established checkpoints between and within cities, and are conducting regular patrols in Reynosa and elsewhere.

Faced with Swollen Prisons, Idaho Ponders Reforms
With nearly 7,500 people behind bars in Idaho -- more than half of them for drug offenses -- the Idaho legislature is finally beginning to move away from the "tough on crime" posturing and infliction of mandatory minimum drug dealing sentences that helped create the current crisis. A bill with bipartisan support that would give Idaho judges the option to send people convicted of drug distribution offenses to treatment instead of mandatory prison terms if they are found to be addicts is on the move in Boise.
24 Smell of Pot No Grounds for Arrest or Search
The Saskatchewan Court of Appeal has ruled that the scent of burning marijuana emanating from a car window is not probable cause for an arrest and vehicle search. The decision came in the case of Archibald Janvier, who was pulled over for a broken headlight four years again in La Loche, Saskatechewan.
25 Nebraska Man Files Complaint over Bogus SD Bust
Eric Sage got pulled over on his motorcycle as he left South Dakota after the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally last summer and ended up being charged with possession of paraphernalia even though he didn't possess any paraphernalia.

"Drop the Ice Breakers and step away from the car."
It would've been mildly amusing had it had been satire.
After searching the story to see if it was intended to be a humor piece, "
Mint or Drug: Is Hershey's Cracked?" by Jill Porter, Philadelphia Daily News, one is overcome by a sadden resignation.
Have drug alarmists no shame? This is unintended humor from a usual source.
They've now settled their focus on a familiar group of law-breakers: Hershey's. The offending candy? Ice Breakers that are so similar to crack cocaine in appearance that--what?
A serious story about decidedly un-serious people who pose as serious.FAMILY COURT Judge Lori Dumas Brooks wanted to make sure she wasn't overreacting.
So she held the small blue packet of powdered substance in her palm and showed it around at work yesterday.
Everyone asked the same thing:
What was she doing with crack cocaine?
Why is it that every time someone over-reacts, they start by saying "I don't want to over-react"?
The story continues in a National Lampoon-like manner. "I thought she confiscated it in the courtroom," said Administrative Judge Kevin Dougherty.
No one could believe what the tiny pouch actually was: a new breath mint made by - get this - Hershey's.
Ice Breakers Pacs, which hit the stores this month, are dissolvable pouches in blue or orange that look uncannily like tiny heat-sealed bags of cocaine, crack, heroin or any other powdered drug.
The Pacs, filled with powdered mint and sweetener, are meant to dissolve on the tongue like breath strips.
They're even packaged in a plastic slide-top case similar to the magnetic key cases drug dealers use to hide their wares under cars.
Who knew? Hershey's and Listerine are involved in a plot to make their products appear to be drug-related? They are joined by another in this nefarious enterprise by British candy-maker Altoids.
Their breath strips are also packaged in "a plastic slide-top case similar to the magnetic key cases drug dealers use to hide their wares under cars".
This is serious!
Back to the stunned judge. "I could not believe it," Judge Dumas Brooks said yesterday.
Blackburn's statement might indicate why Philidelphia seems beset with crime--other than it being Philidellphia.
"Who in the world thought of that, and how did it get approved?"
The pouches are so realistic, they even fooled Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector William Blackburn.
"Being in narcotics the majority of my career, I thought it was the real stuff," said Blackburn.
"It's a disgrace to see a company selling a product like this and basically glorifying the drug trade. The best word to describe it is despicable."
The police have been spending all their time running down leads in 7-11 and Wal-Mart check-out lines. Meanwhile, the poor chief is fooled by a Hershey's product. We'll let the readers draw their own conclusions here.
Even the reporter, Jill Porter, gets caught up in this outrage. One is sympathetic: how could she not be?
Porter: "The best word to describe Hershey's is . . . clueless."
Clueless.
Good word. Again, we'll let the reader draw their own conclusions about the who gets to wear this label.
Hershey's reaction? Well, they couldn't just say, "Are you freakin' kidding me?" They were more polite. "It's not intended to simulate anything," corporate spokesman Kirk Seville told me yesterday, refusing to acknowledge the similarities between the candy and street drugs.
"We have a longstanding commitment to consumer safety, product quality and responsible packaging," he said, adding that the Pacs are "clearly labeled."
"The dissolvable pouch is what makes the product innovative and unique. The overwhelming feedback from consumers is they love the product."
The story quickly spirals out of control. Another familiar player in the "quick, we have to do something--anything" scenario is recruited, the tearful victim.
Linda Wagner, a police veteran, shares a personal story that, while tragic, has its meaning stood on its head in this piece.Maybe Hershey's should have had Linda Wagner in one of its focus groups.
Wagner is a 10-year veteran of the Police Department who switched to narcotics three years ago for personal reasons: Her teenage daughter died of a heroin overdose in 2001.
When Blackburn showed her the mint packets yesterday, Wagner was near tears.
"I was shocked," she said.
"Hershey's is totally irresponsible for marketing this product."
When Officer Regina Missouri saw them, she immediately conjured up the potentially deadly scenarios the look-alike pouches could create.
What if children use them and subsequently stumble upon and ingest a real bag of drugs, thinking they're mints, she said?
The story continues from there, lining up further witnesses, all apparently anxious to see their names in a paper.
All seemingly unaware their participation would be examined by others who'd seen this same story before; with different reactions.
The name of the offender is the only thing different.
The story of the attempts at painting Coca-Cola as a dangereous substance in the 1920s and 30s comes to mind. Before dismissing it on "fact" gathered from hearsay, do some research and then decide.
Same group of non-thinkers, same M.O.
That story almost bankrupt Coke and led to three ownership changes as today's soft drink giant went from most popular drink in America to drug target. And no, it contained no cocaine, as you might have heard.
Research will reveal that some of the flavor was obtained from a process which used denatured coca leafs.
What if someone is enjoying the minty, fresh breath that comes from using an Ice Breaker and gets tased by the good drug-battling Philidelphia Police Department?
That unlucky Hershey's consumer would likely have no recourse, as this article will be held up as "proof" that it was all a mistake; a natural case of mistaken identification between a breath mint and dangerous drugs.
That's one reason this whole article would be absolutely hilarious if it didn't provide cover for future shenanigans. Would Porter, Judge Brooks, or Chief Blackburn think twice about it?
Unlikely, from the amount of mental firepower which predominates this drug warrior puff piece.
Hopefully, no harm will come of it, other than to the reputations of the above trio as reflective thinkers.
Unlike Ms. Porter, we'll let the readers decide that.

A precautionary tale of stoner woe from the Dayton Daily News:A complainant reported his vehicle was stolen from the 3000 block of Cornell Drive.
He couldn't remember how long he'd been getting high. He couldn't remember where he left his keys. He sounded like he might not be sure if he'd loaned his car to someone.
He told police he was getting high in a drug house and wasn't sure how long he had been inside.
The complainant also said he didn't know if he left the keys in the vehicle or if drug dealers stole them from his location. He also stated that he's loaned his vehicle out before but not this time.
--"Man Says He Was Getting High While Car Was Stolen"
Maybe he had a car, maybe he didn't. Maybe he'd once ridden in a car and had gotten it all mixed up. Maybe he could spell "car".
The anti-drug forces now have a new poster child. That famous egg in the frying pan now has competition from an unlucky stoner from Dayton.
