"Liars think all men are fools who do not possess the divine art of lying--- manipulation, betrayal, and the unholy art of character asassination."

Perhaps politicians are a breed apart after all.

Do you remember me?

Sure. You were that gorgeous woman I invited out for a drink. You blushed and said something about your husband. I invited him to come along. You still demurred. My loss. *sigh*

...pathological liars have on average more white matter in their prefrontal cortex...

I think Clinton had his white matter on the front of his pants.

I think this should be a "top" down study, start with the politicians, then the tenured professors at all the great universities. Judges/lawyers. Imagine how much "white" matter could be found at the top.

Aging dung does turn white! LOL!

Do most of them have to hire a Hollywood producer and acting coach to say the words, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman?"

In other words, about one out of four temps in L.A. have diagnosable personality disorders -- a serious psychiatric condition.

When you think about it, this number isn't that far off from common experience. There's an awful lot of a**holes out there.

Remember, these are disabilities, and workplace accommodations should be made for the people that have them. (Cough, cough.)

This must be the reason Joran van der Sloot has that strange shaped head that makes him look like the guy from the Addams Family.
