He doesn't have the were-withal to do so, even though I'm sure he'd like to. The Soviet Union is no longer in business and, to tell the truth, they were something of a Potemkin Village.

The DSM is politically driven diagnoses. It cannot be completely trusted.

However, I do have Asperger’s or something similar to it and I can tell you how I am, to which I just did.

If Putin does have it, or something similar to it, this is how he is going to be.

I think Putin just has migraine headaches. Give him two pills of Pollonium and call the undertaker in the morning.

Oh puleese! Asperger’s?!

AND ... by the way ... Asperger’s has been removed as its own category.

I question the Asperger’s syndrome diagnosis. I would believe he is a steroid user, especially with his increasingly aggressive behavior.

He is competent to assess an gutless ass kisser like Obama and know who holds the cards.
Elections have consequences.
As long as Zero is president, Putin is in no danger from America.

He could literally wipe out entire populations

If Vladimir Putin is the prophesied ‘Prince of Rosh’ he will try to do this.

“You are might be misinformed about Asperger’s. It’s not psychopathy. It’s “on the spectrum,” the ASD spectrum, and “high-functioning Aspies” are not without a moral center, and right and wrong are not “data points” or abstractions with such people.”

Agreed. This is ridiculous.

As for Putin’s plans, EVERY Russian leader will want to recapture the various break-away republics for Mother Russia. That’s Russia’s, not Putin’s, goal.

Putin may be worse than some of them would have been, but he is better than some who may follow him.

I have read that it is believed that many engineers have Asbergers.

Heck, I do not like social settings oe people in general, and absolutely loathe crowds. Cannot remember names unless they are cute chicks, etc.

Guess I should be a Russian leader or something.

Engineer and Aspie. Concur fully. Further, body language is meaningless... hints are useless. Head. Nail. Hammer.

Wait, did I mention I’m dyslexic as well?

Vladimir Putin has Asperger's syndrome

Right. So do Sheldon Cooper and Dr Martin Elingham.

Sheldon and Doc Martin, however, happen to be fictitious characters.

Barack Obama may also be a fictitious character, though he is definitely a malignant narcissist.

I've known people with Autism and I've known people with Aspergers'. Putin clearly has some other things going on, as well. Some sort of ego-thing, plus some control-freak OCD thing.

Disclaimer: I'm just a street psychologist. I don't cure people and I don't fill out insurance forms with government-approved diagnoses. I just figure out how best to deal with the various nut-cases I occasionally have to deal with. Sometimes, it's just as Monty Python said, "Run away - run away!!!".

LOL

ok, so 0bama’s big move is to call the leader of a foreign country names? really?!

there are plenty of names easily associated with 0bama. hell, he’s admittedly done various drugs and acts that have damaged him mentally or signify significant mental disorders.

what’s next? is 0bama going to have the dept of interior design release a statement on Putin’s choice in clothing?
