The evidence is mounting that the President is suffering from depression or worse. Here is a summary of the observable evidence:
a. Anger is a classic symptom of depression. Remember the terribly angry speech on health care President Obama gave in September?
b. Distancing oneself from reality is another symptom. Is not this clearly going on with the President and his apparent inability to address the serious issues in the war in Afghanistan? How is it otherwise conceivable that the Commander-in-Chief doesnt even speak to his general in 70 days? Perhaps if things were going well in the war, we could overlook this lack of attention. But given the seriousness of the problems, where is the President? And what about the latest developments in Iran? The world is looking potentially at Armageddon in the Middle East. Where is the president?
c. Blaming others for failures is another clue. The President has recently suggested that the war is being lost because of our NATO allies. What?
d. Lying blatantly is another indication that a person is not emotionally stable. How can our President insist that his health care plan will not cost the taxpayers anything? After all, he only wants to add some 46 million people onto the governments dole for health care, and he would add over 40 new federal bureaucracies. The Presidents claim is irrational; that is to say mentally unbalanced.
e. The evidence is also convincing that the President is devoid of any sincere religious foundation. In the growing crisis in his presidency, he still has not made any serious effort at finding a church or spiritual support of any kind. This is still another clue that is valuable in this investigation.
f. There have been reports that the Presidents staff has had to get him up for various duties. This lack of enthusiasm for daily tasks would be another sign of possible depression.
g.The Olympic bid could be another indication. This story was really all about cronyism, as the Presidents close associates stood to be greatly enriched by the games being in Chicago. Could the president have possibly thought this would escape public notice? What is going through his mind? How could he be so blinded--unless he is simply not thinking straight?
Any one of these issues in isolation could be overlooked if that was all there was. But taken together, we must conclude that there are serious issues with President Obamas mental health.
Any of the above, or just the fact that he’s a liberal.
Even if Obama isn’t depressed and doesn’t have serious mental issues, he’s responsible for inducing those problems in most patriotic Americans.
Do you think a candidate with the blues would be stumping on Hope and Change?
Um, nooo, he’s just a vain naive egomaniac.
Well he does had illusions of grandiose...
He’s an American-despising communist liberal. No other explanation required.
You forgot to mention, dumber than a rock...
clinically depressing, anyway
Liberalism is a Mental Disorder!
“There have been reports that the Presidents staff has had to get him up for various duties.”
Wasn’t that Bill Clinton’s old line to Monica?
I’d say that Obama is a malignant narcissist. When things are going their way, such people are on top of the world. But when things go against them, depression is a likely outcome.
He is incapable of even conceiving of the possibility that the whole world should not love him. No matter what he does. As long as HE wants it.
If he manages to ram the healthcare bill through and bankrupt America in the process, no doubt that will cheer him up.
The CIA ought to slip him some Thorazine and Lexapro.
Yep, some people say liberalism is a mental disorder.
I don’t know if he’s clinically depressed, or has mental problems. I do think he’s learning the limits of presidential power, and the fact that things happen outside his control. And it could well be that, as some outspoken liberals think, that anyone opposed to his agenda is evil, racist, enemies in some way.
The olympic thing is a minor issue in and of itself, but the episode calls into question his judgement, his setting of priorities, his management style, and the way his staff works with him.
It is the job of this ‘Administration’ to destroy the United States. How many ways can we actually see them doing this every single day? Shall we count them? Can we?
No, wait a minute...

He smokes and admitted to drug use from weed to coke. His wife is over-bearing. He is a narcissist. The case is good.
Nobody dares tell a narcissistic person no.
He has never heard the word, so is mystified by it.
Telling a narcissistic person no usually brings on a violent reaction. (The reason spoiled kids throw tantrums.)
Does Obama Have Narcissistic Personality Disorder? (YouTube video explains Obama to a tee)
Yeah, he seems to feel he’s got to be America’s nanny. Kind of like Bloomy towards New York City.
