Churchill described Hitler in the opening pages of The Gathering Storm as: (from memory) "a maniac a ferocious genius, the embodiment of the most virulent hatreds that ever corroded the human breast-corporal Hitler."

If Obama is possessed of half the demons which you describe and with which I largely agree, the internal tension within the man must be centrifugal and ready to break out at any time. Yet by all accounts he is cool under every circumstance. Either our armchair psychoanalysis is faulty or Obama is headed for an explosion.

Hitler's demons drove him at the end to fits and literally chewing the carpet. Like Hitler in the early days, Obama has experienced no serious frustration in obtaining his political will. We will have to see.

Yet by all accounts he is cool under every circumstance.

There were stories before the election, during the meeting with Bush and McCain on the financial crisis, that ZerO had a tantrum, but, I never heard more about it. Cover up or fiction?

The only talent DumbO seems to have is to read a teleprompter, and, his side to side reading is to distracting to believe what he is saying.

Does anyone believe that the dOpey-One read this book before his grammy award winning recording?

Hitler didn’t waltz into Berlin sweeping up jews as he went along. It was a slow process that took years. It was two years until jews weren’t allowed to vote. Then another couple before the ghetto and yet a few more before the camps.

So the maniac doesn’t have to act like a serial killer on steroids to be a maniac.

I expect a crisis to come that is beyond all our imagination and will be the reason and excuse to do whatever the maniac wants. I believe he is a muslim. I had suspected it, but the treatment he has given Europe and Israel along with the sycophant routine with the Muslim countries, not to mention the attempt to kiss the ring of the “Keeper of Mecca” which has been the tradition for thousands of years for Muslims (I don’t think it was a bow, I think he was reaching for his hand and leaning down before he heard audible gasps around him and woke the hell up) proves it to me.

Just my opinion though.

Hussein is a “Confidence Man” of the highest order.

In the good, old tradition of revolutionaries, Obama hides in plain print.

On p. 94-95 of his autobiography he describes an effective tactic to deal with White people:

“It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved - such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time.”

In reality he is much like Alger Hiss according to this author:

Coldly courteous, and condescending.

IMO, he showed us who he really is when he instinctively genuflected before the Saudi King.

Obama has NO love of the United States, and he will (hopefully) be caught in the act of disloyalty.

I think the uncertainty of his own paternity is at the root of this character.

Wasn't Hitler also an illegitimate spawn?

the internal tension within the man must be centrifugal and ready to break out at any time. Yet by all accounts he is cool under every circumstance. Either our armchair psychoanalysis is faulty or Obama is headed for an explosion.

Those of us here on FR with well-developed intuitions sensed fairly early that this was a man who might be brought down by his own demons, and not finish his term in office.

I will simply state that I believe that he will have a "medical problem" that will require his leaving the presidency.

Outstanding analysis, and prose nb!
