He, 'Borat' himself, was the only 'liar' in that situation. My friend, "G. G.", was just a mistaken individual that was swayed by the same visible and audible elements that 99% of us would have interpreted as one receiving the Holy Ghost. It's easy to say 'where was his discernment' but if it had been a stranger in most any of our local Churches intent on 'duping' us the incredibly vast majority would have rejoiced at what they perceived as someone getting the Holy Ghost.
I'd venture to say this isn't the first time any of us have seen the Devil speak in tongues!
To that end, there IS a magnanimous difference.
