Is it possible to believe your own lie?

confuse he claimed he had 'one, maybe two operations' on
his nose...nothing else!

confuse O.J. still claims he's innocent!

Is it possible that they actually believe these more-than
obvious lies..?? Does the brain work that way??
There are other examples, but these 2 have me way confuse
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Yeah, those self-righteous "leaders" may be worse...
they have a following who have a hard time thinking
for themselves.

I don't necessarily know if Michael believes those things he said about the plastic surgery. I do believe that OJ believes what he says.

And although they do have some things in common, I don't believe Michael's name should be in tandem with OJ's.
This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes.

I believe it is so. In fact, even with proof - a person still might not want to see the truth.
