Which five or more describes Obama to a "T"?

Narcissistic Personality Disorder is characterized by a long-standing pattern of grandiosity (either in fantasy or actual behavior), an overwhelming need for admiration, and usually a complete lack of empathy toward others. People with this disorder often believe they are of primary importance in everybody's life or to anyone they meet.

In order for a person to be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) they must meet five or more of the following symptoms:

1. * Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)

Wrote two book before he achieved any meaningful & Significant accomplishments?

2. * Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love

3. * Believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)

He only surrounds himself with people who only praise him and hires only professors and like minded people from the Harvard's and Yale's of the World?

4.* Requires excessive admiration

5. * Has a very strong sense of entitlement, e.g., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations

6 * Is exploitative of others, e.g., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends

7. * Lacks empathy, e.g., is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others

8 * Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her

9 * Regularly shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

There was a poster here who said she had lived with someone who had this disorder.

She said it was hell.

This could explain Michelle’s face and attitude.

The current occupant of the White House -- and that's all I can bear to call him -- is so bad that I'd probably smile if I saw a "Miss Me Much?" billboard with Bill Clinton's face on it! :-)

Well...on second though...probably not. But it does indicate just how much I can't stand that vile bottom-feeder masquerading as an American.

It’s not going to upset the WH, because they are all collectively sick in the head. If the ‘head of the sick in the head’ goes down..they all go down. They are all nothing but immature jackasses, bent on destroying our country for the fun and commie profit of it. Their patron saint, Mr. Soros, has devoted his whole life to betraying his own jewish brothers and sisters and destroying whole countries for his own profit. Yet we are suppose to believe that it is the small businessman and venture capitalist that is the root of all evil?

OMG...I am so pissed tonight.

We were saying the same thing about Clinton. True or not...what does it matter?

We’ve just got to get him out of the White House!

Kinda fits the description of a sociopath, doesn’t it...
