Finally!
A scientific explanation for imams.
my ex-wife....
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.
Quotes from my all-time favorite accomplished liar:
"Vandelay Industries, is uh. 129 West 81st street. It's a very small industry Vandelay. It's one of the reasons I wanted to uh, work for them."
"Yes, this is a business office, but I'm not a businessman per se. I'm here working for the people. I'm causing dissent, stirring the pot, getting people to question the whole rotten system."
"Algae, obviously plankton, I don't know what else I can tell you, Oh I just got back from a trip to the Galapagos Islands, I was living with the turtles."
"I'm an architect. Have you seen the new addition to the Guggenheim?"
"The Human Fund: Money for People"
I think that there might be some oversimplification on Prof Raines' part.
Pathological prevarication probably has many causes; and, a subset of socicopathological behavior (aka the Clinton syndrome) is one of the more well-established.
With apologies to any shrinks in F.R., psychological research sometimes has a reputation of lacking scientific rigor.

Well ... that explains all the white stuff on top of Bill Clinton's head.
"Liars think all men are fools who do not possess the divine art of lying." - Casanova
Besides Toon and the Beast, there is ANSWER, Cindy Sheehan, and Air America. And the MSM.
"Always tell the truth and you don't have to remember anything!" -- Mark Twain
Raine interviewed 108 volunteers from five temporary employment agencies in Los Angeles and set them standard psychopathic tests. This allowed him to identify 12 as pathological liars, 16 as people with a personality disorder but who did not exhibit pathological lying and 21 as controls, who were neither anti-social, nor liars.
What this means: Based on this representative sample from five different agencies, 11% of temporary workers in L.A. are pathological liars and another 15% have other kinds of personality disorders.
In other words, about one out of four temps in L.A. have diagnosable personality disorders -- a serious psychiatric condition.
Whatever the case may be regarding the brains of pathological liars, that's an interesting statistic to know.
Meanwhile, I would expect Bill Clinton to hold all calls from USC right about now...
Deposition in the Jones sexual harassment lawsuit
"Q. Did you have an extramarital sexual affair with Monica Lewinsky?
A. No."
January 22, 1998
At White House photo opportunity with Yaser Arafat
"Let me say, first of all, I want to reiterate what I said yesterday. The allegations are false and I would never ask anybody to do anything other than tell the truth."
January 26, 1998
At White House news conference on education
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky."
August 17, 1998
Nationally televised speech
"Indeed, I did have a relationship with Ms. Lewinsky that was not appropriate."
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?"
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.
You rang?

BULL squeeze..
