If you have a new lovely bride who is busting her backside to put food on the table eveyday,then you can afford to dabble in the '419' politics that goes on in this country.

Only the NDC supporters will fail to see the truth in what Sammy Awuku has been drumming to Ghanaians. In fact, the truth hurts. I don't blame this bias writer.

When you lie in the morning you have to lie in the afternoon to cover the morning lie. This is exactly what Sammy Awuku is doing.

Do not waste your breathe. Sammy Awuku is beyond redemption. He has reached the stage where to borrow from Shakespeare, in Macbeth....he is so deeply in blood that returning will be as tedious as going over.......

Perhaps he is one of those who like to hear their own voices as they love to comment on almost any issue. I am subject to correction if the core function of a Communications Secretariat official is what he does. Another culprit is the man, Karbo who also seem to be affected by verbal diarrhea. They fall within the category of people identified as pathological liars.

The character of every individual is moulded during the formative period in his/her life, or what others will term the habituation stage. As kids our minds are like a blank slate which makes us very, very impressionable, so if we do not internalize right from wrong, we grow up with the boundary between the two blurred. It is however the responsibility of adults in the family, society to ensure that we inculcate the positive normative values that will stand us in good stead in future Abdication of this role by adults either from irresponsibility or broken homes leads to deviancy later in life because they grow up insisting on two things: the world revolves around them and the world persecutes them.

Deviancy manifests in them becoming pathological liars, thieves, molesters of varying perversions etc. They find it difficult to differentiate between the desirable and undesirable conduct because the boundary between the two is blurred.

For those who want to gain an insight into who is a pathological liar and if this tag fits Sammy Awuku the ilk, herewith is the result of my quest on the issue:

How can you tell if someone is a pathological liar?

Answer:
Pathological liars - or "mythomaniacs" - may refer to those suffering from histrionic personality disorder or narcissistic personality disorder.

The symptom set for Mythomania is:

1) The subject is not delusional and the stories they tell are at least technically plausible. If the subject is actually delusional, a diagnosis of a condition with psychotic features is more appropriate.

2) The tendency to construct such stories is non-transient, and long lasting. The story telling behavior is an actual personality trail.

3) The tendency is clearly non-situational and the subject's motives are objectively internal. The stories are not lies told from fear, or to cover a long pattern of misconduct (spousal abusers and confidence tricksters for instance are not mythomaniacs although they often construct elaborate webs of lies for years to cover their abuse or trick their victims). Such lies are situational and objectively external. The abuser is attempting to evade punishment).

4) The stories tend to present the teller in an extremely positive light, but otherwise provide no material benefit to the teller. The story may suggest that the teller is intensely brave, wealthy or may know many famous people, but the teller derives no benefit from fostering this belief, other than people believing the story.

The following comments basically reflect a pathological liar who has the characteristics of histrionic personality disorder.

Some Characteristics

:
Exaggerates things that are ridiculous.
One-upping. Whatever you do, this person can do it better. You will never top them in their own mind, because they have a concerted need to be better than everyone else. This also applies to being right. If you try to confront an individual like this, no matter how lovingly and well-intentioned you might be - this will probably not be effective. It's threatening their fantasy of themselves, so they would rather argue with you and bring out the sharp knives than admit that there's anything wrong with them. They "construct" a reality around themselves. They don't value the truth, especially if they don't see it as hurting anyone. If you call them on a lie and they are backed into a corner, they will act very defensively and say ugly things (most likely but depends on personality), but they may eventually start to act like, "Well, what's the difference? You're making a big deal out of nothing!" (again, to refocus the conversation to your wrongdoing instead of theirs).Because these people don't value honesty, a lot of times they will not value loyalty. So watch what you tell them. They will not only tell others, but they will embellish to make you look worse. Their loyalty is fleeting, and because they are insecure people, they will find solace in confiding to whomever is in their favor at the moment.

They may be somewhat of a hypochondriac. This can come in especially useful when caught in a lie, for example, they can claim that they have been sick, or that there is mysteriously some "illness" that has them all stressed out. It's another excuse tool for their behavior.
Obviously, they will contradict what they say. This will become very clear over time. They usually aren't smart enough to keep track of so many lies (who would be?).

They lie about even the smallest things. For example, saying "I brushed my teeth today," when they didn't.
They add exaggerations to every sentence. They change their story all the time. They act very defensively when you question their statements.
They believe what they say is true, when everyone else knows it isn't.

An alternate 'checklist':
Lies when it is very easy to tell the truth.Lies to get sympathy, to look better, to save their butt, etc.
Fools people at first but once they get to know him, no one believes anything they ever say.May have a personality disorder.Extremely manipulative.Has been caught in lies repeatedly.Never faces up to the lies.Is a legend in their own mind.
