A recent analysis by Roger Simon of PJTV Media maintains that Obama is showing signs of mental illness. A wide variety of commentators have observed that Obama displays severe narcissism. Obama is conceited, and he is demonstrating a serious disassociation from reality.
A recent case in point was Obama's bizarre and meandering 17-minute, 2,500-word answer to the simple question about how he could justify raising taxes for ObamaCare during a recession when citizens are already overtaxed. Obama's wildly inappropriate answer left the audience stunned and led commentator Charles Krauthammer to mockingly say, "I don't know why you are so surprised. It’s only nine times the length of the Gettysburg address, and after all Lincoln was answering an easier question, the higher purpose of the union and the soldiers who fell in battle."
This lapse of delusion occurred in front of a friendly audience. Overall, Barack Obama seems to be slipping into a slightly more delusional state these days.
On Monday, following his embarrassing answer on Saturday, Obama stopped by the Washington Nationals home opener to loft an effeminate toss toward home plate constituting the ceremonial first pitch. After this display, Obama was mucking it up in the press booth talking about his love of the Chicago White Sox. The announcers asked Obama which players he supported growing up a White Sox fan. After hemming and hawing for about 30 seconds, Obama responded that he grew up in Hawaii and was actually an A's fan. Again, he avoided mentioning any players by name. Obama seems to believe that he can say whatever he wants, and not reap the consequences or be forced to defend his empty assertions. Obama behaves in a manner so disconnected from reality that he is shocked when someone has the audacity to question him. Obama acts like his word is infallible.
In March of last year Obama was on “60 Minutes” with Steve Kroft. Throughout the interview as Kroft questioned about the economic downturn and people losing their life savings, Obama just kept laughing. A one point CBS’s Kroft stopped him and asked, “Are you punch drunk?" How will the American people react to seeing their president laugh off their predicament? Obama’s inappropriate laughter clearly demonstrated he has lost touch with the pain that people are feeling.
Obama portrays himself as the larger-than-life figure towering above the political fray. At the summit when Obama was pushing his health care package through Congress, he attempted to act as if he were the chief arbiter of truth. With petty insults, he slapped down what the Republicans proposed and audaciously claimed his was a “bipartisan bill.” Obama distorts the truth with such frequency that one must start to question if Obama even realizes he is lying or is so disassociated from the truth that he believes what he says.
A further example of Obama’s delusions of grandeur occurred when he gave himself a “good solid B plus.” Believing that his presidency was an above average success when America is hurting is absurd. Obama went so far as to claim that he would give himself an “A” once health care was passed. Obama is not living in the same reality as the rest of us.
As Charles Krauthammer wrote, “Not that Obama considers himself divine. (He sees himself as merely messianic, or, at worst, apostolic.) But he does position himself as hovering above mere mortals, mere country, to gaze benignly upon the darkling plain beneath him where ignorant armies clash by night, blind to the common humanity that only he can see."
Obama sees himself as the greatest man to be president in all time. He truly believes it when he said "we are the ones we have been waiting for," and "this is the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and the planet began to heal." He believes that he can do anything he pleases and the people will love him for it. Obama plans to radically transform this country and go down in history as, in his mind, the greatest ever. Obama is clearly disconnected from reality.
Obama is, according to Newt Gingrich, “potentially the most dangerous (president), because he so completely misunderstands reality.” Gingrich was referring to Obama’s inept and weak stance on missile defense amongst other things. Even Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said that Obama is an amateur; so much for wowing the world. Obama lives in an alternate universe where he treats our friends poorly and expects our enemies to change and become our friends. Here’s hoping that the voters help to connect this president back to reality in November.
1Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
3For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
4For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
5They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
6Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
7Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
8They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
9They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
10Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
11And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
12Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
13Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
14For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
15If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
16When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
17Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
18Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
19How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
20As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
21Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
22So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
23Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
24Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.
It would go to Slow Plugs Joe and the entire nation will breathe a sigh of relief as we drift back to blissful gridlock.
Soros will have a stroke. He can't live long enough to do this again. Perhaps the French will catch up with him and he will croak in a Poly Voo slam-ea!
Don’t forget the State Of The Union Address.
I personally believe he is a sociopath, and a pathological liar. But what do I know?
maybe his driver took to St. Elizabeth’s Hospital (a very large psychiatric hospital in DC)to see if they had any beds available but on the other hand St. E’s banned smoking in 2007
If he really cracks up he might like Sheppard-Pratt in Towson,MD I hear they take private pay patients
Good question! In most states, a person can be evaluated by a county MHP, (mental health professional) if a person is thought to be in danger of harming himself, others, or is gravely disabled. I don't know about you, but I feel we are in the others category and are in danger of being harmed by The One. So when is he going to have his MHP eval?
He seems to delight in doing this, remember he gave Hillary the finger during one of their debates.
always remember...
The difference between a conservative and a liberal...
A conservative bases his politics on his morals...
A liberal bases his morals on his politics
In that case, I’ve been in trouble for long time!
After Ruby Ridge and Waco, I was always concerned Clinton would try a martial law scenario. With The One, I almost hope he tries it. I think it would truly backfire. Go ahead Obama, bring it on!
It is not outside the realm of possibility. Seriously.
This is an excellent analysis. Ubama is crazy as a loon.
0bamao is not stupid.
However, there is no reason to discount 0bamao allowing certain entities within the borders to inflict damage upon his perceived enemies. There is no reason why 0bamao would not be internally “pleased” to see a surge in domestic terror from once dormant jihadis or Latin loose cannons such as MS-13. He could deflect and seek a modified form of martial law to “protect” the general population. A significant portion of the population would accept his “good intentions” and not question his motives.
Funny thing you would mention that. Seems like what was unthinkable is becoming entirely plausible.
And May is next month.
This is the most obvious proof that he is hiding his citizenship status.
Think about it. How could a narcissist resist not shoving his birth certificate in his distractors faces during an election in order to garner sympathy and in his case play the race card.
This guy can’t even find a way to ignore Palin. Tit for tat is the way this guy operates.
“Didn’t believe I was eligible because I am Black”
If anyone has not seen Sarah Palin’s speech yesterday at the SRLC in “New Orleans, look at it.
She demolishes Obozo and others with aplomb.
So much so, Obozo felt compelled to reply to her.
She cuts him down to size, and the Muslim Narcissist in Chief can’t take it.
Pass the popcorn. She’s in no ways tired. You betcha.
I’m waiting for that breakdown. I hope it happens on a live TV broadcast.
Are you my twin??
I want to see him taken off the podium by medics!!!
Me too! I want to be on your Good Article Ping list. I’m upset that I’m not already!
