Obama: I’m no ‘big government, crazy liberal’
Biz PAC ^ | 2/22/2016 | Michael Dorstewitz

Get ready: Obama may have chalked up another PolitiFact "Lie of the Year" award.

President Obama claimed that contrary to the widely-held perception that he's a "big government, crazy liberal," he actually welcomed regulatory reform in his administration.

At a National Governors Association luncheon Monday, the president asked the gathering to send him their lists of the "most illogical and frustrating" regulations enacted under his term in office.

"I don't believe in regulations for regulations sake," he told the governors. "[The idea that] somehow that I get a kick out of big government, is simply not the case."

"It's not like I get up every morning and say, 'How can I add more work for me?'" he said. "If there's something to stop doing or do better, we should change it."

"We have been very stringent and very tight and our numbers all check out," he said. "Even on some of the big regulations that you don't like."

"For those of you who think I'm just a big government, crazy liberal, we crunch some numbers around here. We take it very seriously."

By the time he will leave the White House, the national debt will have doubled from $10 trillion to $20 trillion.

Right out of the gate, he added $1 trillion in stimulus funds that did nothing.

Regulations have spiked under this president. The Environmental Protection Agency is running headlong to destroy the coal industry, and regulate small lakes, streams and estuaries.

Add Obamacare, the takeover of the auto industry, and the list goes on and on.

The president holds Politifact's "Lie of the Year" for his claim that under Obamacare, if you like your present plan and physician, you can keep them.

Get ready for number two.

Obama was the most unknown, unaccomplished, unqualified person to ever to occupy the Oval Office in American history.

Do we even know for sure that Obama mentally stable? Dr. Sam Vaknin, the world's leading expert on narcissism and the author of "Malignant Self Love ," has said that "Obama's language, posture, and demeanor and the testimonies of his closest, dearest and nearest suggest that Obama is a narcissist or he may have Narcissistic Personality Disorder."

Narcissists have a grandiose, inflated, messiah like self image and cannot stand to be criticized. Obama's Christ like view of himself is very clearly revealed in his Democratic nomination victory speech in St. Paul, Minnesota on June 3, 2008 in which he tells a worshipping audience, "This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal."

Clearly, this is a delusional statement.

Illogical and frustrating regulations enacted under Obama and his minions:

1. The unconstitutional and immoral mandate that citizens buy an unwanted product (Obamacare) from private businesses.

2. All new restrictions on our individual, God-given right to keep and bear arms.

3. Everything else that Obama has done to expand FedGov, at a cost of both lost freedom and $10T in new debt burden piled on our children.

It is not like I get up every morning and say, 'How can I add more work for me?'

Well, he did say one thing that was truthful.

I’ve never thought of Obama as a Liberal. He’s much further left, out in Progressive Land, where Communism and Fascism are twin sons of different mothers.

"If there's something to stop doing or do better, we should change it."

There's the rub, Libs ALWAYS believe government can do everything better.
Therefore, to stop doing something is out of the question.

Lets get clinical with Obama’s Narcissism.
The Mayo Clinic summed up its definition of narcissistic personality disorder
If you have narcissistic personality disorder, you may come across as conceited, boastful or pretentious. You often monopolize conversations. You may belittle or look down on people you perceive as inferior.
You may feel a sense of entitlement and when you don’t receive special treatment, you may become impatient or angry.

The American Psychiatric Association (APA) lists its own criteria for the disorder including:
Having an exaggerated sense of self-importance;
Expecting to be recognized as superior even without achievements that warrant it;
Exaggerating your achievements and talents;
Believing that you are superior and can only be understood by or associate with equally special people;
Requiring constant admiration;
Having a sense of entitlement;
Expecting special favors and unquestioning compliance with your expectations;
Taking advantage of others to get what you want; and
Behaving in an arrogant or haughty manner.

Sound like anyone we know?
