Hey, CBB - excellent article. I've put up some selections from it in my in-progress Interview Tips page.

I was wondering what you think the 'right' tactic is to counter machine-gun lying.

It probably depends on the setting. My own speculation was to have an ejaculation (look it up) of some kind - "Bull!", "Oh, come on!", which you could interject without really interrupting them. I suppose a cluster of them, increasingly more exasperated might work. Your thoughts?

Even though it makes the public discourse a pile of mush, I agree with you that whort, sharp interjections are the only way to deal with this. The words "rude" and "dishonest" should be used as often as possible.
