Having Obama as president is like being involved in a bad relationship. One that we either knew intuitively or had friends warn us would be a big mistake but we hadn't listened.
Why? How could we be accepting of someone who turns out to be filled with rancor and who is unrepentantly untrustworthy someone who is miserable and makes all around them miserable as well? To the public they/he seem(s) intelligent and winsome, but in reality they/he are white-washed sepulchers which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness.
That is precisely the case with Obama. He seemed like just the person to make all things right in our lives. He mouthed great and lofty promises that, in reality, were as vacuous as a jar filled with air. And like the scourge our friends warned us about, we ignored the telltale signs that portended trouble.
His most recent display of contempt for our feelings and ready willingness to be untruthful came April 15 as tea partiers were holding nationwide Tax Day rallies. In an unparalleled display of arrogance Obama, the president of the United States, said he was "amused by the anti-tax tea-party protests that have been taking place." He condescendingly and falsely said, "You would think they'd be saying thanks" insofar as he had cut taxes, contrary to the claims of the protesters.
But the man whom much of America had trusted, the man millions of persons became involved with vis-à-vis their support and votes, was lying.

This is one of the best articles I have read in a long while. Excellent and thanks for posting!
Er, I know this is artistic license on the writer's part but I personally was never under that illusion.
Ask anyone who’s been married to a narcissist and they will tell you marriage to one makes you crazy. Your family and friends just can’t understand what’s so awful about the person as they seem okay to them. It takes a very long time to figure out that the problem isn’t you because a narcissist easily persuades, manipulates, and charms. Once all your self-esteem is gone, it’s very hard to get away from them, and you usually leave after many many years, usually decades, destitute, defeated, and broken.
This country is reacting as would the abused spouse in one of these relationships. We don’t understand completely what is wrong, we just know something terrible is happening. Oh, sure, we know Obama is a Marxist Commie, implementing his Commie ideas, and we know he’s not a natural born citizen and we know he’s hidden his past, but it’s hard to understand why we feel so embattled, why we feel we’re going crazy.
We speak to others who think everything is just peachy keen, or who say, “Oh, it’s not so bad,” but we KNOW it is bad but we don’t know how to explain it properly. This is the craziness that a narcissist brings upon those around him. In this case, the entire United States of America.
I sometimes wonder about Michelle, perhaps she has such a dour natural expression because she’s married to him. But it’s not uncommon for narcissists to marry another narcissist; maybe she’s one? I actually don’t think she is. I think having her husband as President has allowed her some freedom since he gets to use his skills on others. I sure feel for those kids, though. Every time I see them, I see darkness and pain. Those children have been through some tough times, it’s quite obvious from the looks on their faces.
“He seemed like just the person to make all things right in our lives.”
No, he didn’t.
That’s the problem with too many people. They want Santa Claus to ride to the rescue instead of handling their own problems.
Well my response was of course sarcastic. I thouroghly enjoy his intellect.
“Well my response was of course sarcastic.”
Yes.
