(In passing, note that the words Barry has enclosed in quotes in his response to Lawson, as if they were words Lawson has used, are mostly words Barry has put in his mouth. This is one of Barry's standard tactics.) This is the part of what Barry just quoted from my posts of a year ago that's most germane to Barry himself: ----------- And this insightful analysis from a commenter on Kevin Drum's Political Animal blog: "What the study seems to be saying is that the people who are great liars have less grey matter to work with, which is the element that does the serious calculating work, so it's terrifically harder for them to work out the actual truth of something, but really easy to make up a great story about it, a story that outwardly fits tightly to the few most obvious facts which are all they can really determine." http://tinyurl.com/c9f82 ---------- Virtually every one of Barry's rants about MMY, the TMO, "True Believers," and those on this forum with whom he disagrees fit this pattern. The quote above would seem to give him something of an "out" in that it describes how things really look to him; he's genuinely incapable of determining "the actual truth of something," so he isn't lying per se. However, he also has a long record of telling deliberate lies about even "the few most obvious facts." Ironically, this is primarily evident in his rants against individuals on this forum in terms of what they've said and done here (and on alt.m.t) in the past. It's ironic because these are the easiest to check up on given the availability of what they've actually said and done via the archives.
