This would imply that "liars" may not be consciously deciding to lie.
They simply are a bit dimwitted (less grey matter) but are clever,have
a gift for gab (more white matter).  That is, they simply don't "get"
many things, but are good at spinning compelling stories about the
quite limited stuff they do get.
  
I know some,perhaps many, that appear to fit that model.
