Kids who don’t bond with someone in the very first weeks and months of life carry this lack of development throughout life. This psychic “hole” is apparent to everyone who has to deal with the person. Yet it seems to be invisible to the person himself. When all those dendrites and synapses should have been forming, and when he should have been out innocently learning “male” things like how to throw a ball and act like a MAN, he was doing God knows what. Likewise, “God knows what” was being done to him. Well I have news for him. People with FAR worse upbringings learn to overcome it and they go on to do wonderful things. He was so “put upon” being half black, half white. His mom could’ve aborted him. Since he loves abortion so much, I guess he wishes that she had.

as I understand it, narcissists cannot stand to be on the same stage, and run from each other in that way.....collective narcissism is not the problem here, whether or not omamma is one......I agree that he IS, but the narcissism matter is a red herring to his and his masters and cohorts ideology

[MHGinTN]

Not a red herring since it is most instructive on what he will do under different circumstances. Knowing what a malignant narcissist does when their popularity is plummeting is a worthwhile bit of information. You really ought to give the interview a listen. Of course, if you’re a narcissist, it will be uncomfortable and you probably will not listen very far into it.

[Vn_survivor_67-68]

oh please!.......While those of you caught up in this narcissism bit are discussing it, omamma and cohorts have openly declared war upon our country....

[MHGinTN]

Um, yeah. And what he will do next is more predictable when you know his malignancy.

Such protestation! ... Didn't like confronting the realities of narcissism?

[Vn_survivor_67-68]

the sparseness of rhis thread that has been up now for over 8 hrs (esp if you subtract the posts that I have received lip from, for merely making a self-evident observation) bears witness to how irrelevant the “narcissism” thing is......a total waste of time.....

It’s like worrying about the 2012 election and forgetting about 2010 in the meantime.

Rock on with your concerns and predictions based on “narcissism”......most of us will deal with day to day developments

[my_pointy_head_is_sharp]

the narcissism matter is a red herring to his and his masters and cohorts ideology

I agree with you on that.

narcissists cannot stand to be on the same stage

Did you happen to see Bill Clinton and Al Gore on the same stage when Laura Ling (the pardoned journalist) was speaking? Bill Clinton was standing quietly, being almost humble. Al Gore, on the other hand, would occasionally DO something, taking away from what Laura Ling was saying. Whenever he would hug Euna Lee, or touch Clinton, your eyes went to HIM, instead of to the speaker (Laura Ling). So, in a sense, he was trying to draw attention to himself, instead of having it go to Ling (or, secondarily, to Clinton). He was upstaging her by not keeping still. It was an interesting ploy, whether conscious or unconscious. He obviously didn't like being on the same stage with Clinton getting all the credit. And his showiness ensured that he was being noticed, too.

Some of us LIKE reading about and contemplating the head case that is currently running the country. So to those who pooh-pooh it all, thanks for the advice, but I’ll continue reading threads like this one.

Perhaps you could use some help. Bringing the demcorat party down for 2010 is tied to the choice they made for pres_ _ent. This guy is so bad, so marxist, that even disinterested people are starting to take notice. Now, you may be so non-intellect oriented that this sort of revelation means nothing to you ... and it may also make you uncomfortable, but that is grist for another mill.

Here's the simplest I can make it for you: the 2010 election rides on the polling numbers of the current democrat party choice to head that party. Obama is a reflection of the demcorat party. Revealing his methodology reduces his ability to use his enthrallment on the voters and thus lowers their opinion of him. Every little bit of revelation about this lying bastard helps expose him and the morally bankrupt party which worships him.

You obvious don't like that exposure for your president. Sorry, it's not going to stop to make you feel more comfy.

One must never underestimate the manipulative genius of pathological narcissists. They project such an imposing personality that it overwhelms those around them. Charmed by the charisma of the narcissist, people become like clay in his hands. They cheerfully do his bidding and delight to be at his service.

I don't give him that much credit. The MSM created BDS as well as the novel idea that a black guy was going to run for president created the perfect storm for this unqualified, junior senator to be elected by a manipulative media with the help of the ignorant masses across this country hoping for the coming of a black messiah.......

The guy is not a good orator, the guy is not intelligent, the guy doesn't even have an ounce of charisma. All the above is just bullshit that the MSM has been trying to hammer into our heads since the moron came on to the scene.

Obama is nothing more than a Mr. Potato Head who was successfully shoved into the presidency by the MSM..............

Here’s the simplest I can make it for you:

you’ve ALMOST got me fooled into believing you are an obama troll

[MHGinTN]

Oh, I thought you just wanted soemone to give you more lip, badass. This is not a Forrest Gump sort of time, genius.

[Vn_survivor_67-68]

LOL

Here’s the simplest I can make it for you:

you’ve got me believing you are an obama troll AND a narcissist

happy now?
