Barack Obama’s potential “personality flaw,” leading him to only see and believe what he wants to see and believe when it comes to the global threat from terrorism”
********************
And there tells the whole story! Why does he want to believe those lies? There is an invisible string between him and the Muslims...just like a parent will usually protect their child even though they know they are a loser, IMO

Inability or unwillingness? I think it is the latter. The effect is much the same but the distinction here is one of volition. He is unwilling to open his mind and therefore falls into the invincibly ignorant category.

Ping!

I must strenuously disagree with the article where it says “ Barack Obama’s potential personality flaw...”. It is not a potential flaw but a verified host of flaws.

Here’s a work around to get rid of the artifacts that mar our current posting. Works well.

Hi John. I assume you are working to remove the garbled characters from the FR text display...?

I would do a lot more linking directly to FR on twitter and Facebook but I don’t want to invite first-time readers and have them immediately dislike the site because it is difficult to read.

An update would be much appreciated :)

Thanks and good luck!

Its pretty clear he is an ideologue and does not want to hear anything that contradicts his narrow and unrealistic world view.

Obama doesn't have a personality flaw, he's the enemy.

Benedict Arnold didn't have a personality flaw, he was the enemy. Lenin didn't have a personality flaw, he was the enemy. Hitler didn't have a personality flaw, he was the enemy. Stalin didn't have a personality flaw, he was the enemy. Mao didn't have a personality flaw, he was the enemy.

Obama knows exactly what he's doing. There is no flaw or incompetence associated with his actions. He's doing exactly what he needs to "transform" the USA. And he's succeeding beyond his wildest dreams.

I sincerely hope that when we have Americans back in charge after the next election..

then the campus shenanigans of these aged 1960s campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue occupying buildings in Washington, D.C. are investigated, prosecuted and punished to the max.

She’s generous. I just read this amazing essay that gets to the heart of Obama’s motivations. If you haven’t read this, please do so.

Independent investigative reporter and host of “Full Measure,” Sharyl Attkisson is giving a blistering account of what one source called Barack Obama’s potential “personality flaw,” leading him to only see and believe what he wants to see and believe when it comes to the global threat from terrorism - that, as opposed to what ground operators are actually trying to report to him.

This goes hand-in-hand with recent reports that up to 50 intelligence types claim the administration has been systematically altering intelligence reports for political reasons.

She was a guest today on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Stephen K. Bannon

According to Attkisson, her sources say President Obama is “selective about what he wants to hear and wants to believe when it comes to intelligence.”

“I’ve spoken with people who have dealt with the White House and feel it’s a serious issue,” added Attkisson:

For example, one concrete thing we’ve seen as a result of that is the President calling ISIS a ‘JV’ team when his ground people say they never told him that. And you have to wonder who he’s listening to and where he’s getting that information from and why he continues to go with that versus the things being told to him, or trying to be presented to him from ground level intelligence - especially when he’s been proven to be so thoroughly mistaken over and over again.

She also said one source described it as “a personality flaw”, in essence, “the inability to open your mind beyond what you want to hear, or what certain people are telling you to understand the truth of the facts may be different than what you’re hearing.” He is “very insulated by some key people who protect him from information that he doesn’t want to hear.... That’s just the way he operates, apparently,” she concluded.
