Barack Obama’s recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine paints a portrait of a president under siege and lashing out.
For example, the Tea Party is, according to Obama, the tool of “very powerful, special-interest lobbies” — except for those in the Tea Party whose motivations are “a little darker, that have to do with anti-immigrant sentiment or are troubled by what I represent as the president.”
Fox News, the president informs us, “is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world.”
[....]
Set aside the discordance of these words coming from a man who said, on the night of his election, “I will listen to you, especially when we disagree.” There is a hazardous dynamic developing.
To understand why, let’s start with this: President Obama is a man of unusual vanity and self-regard. He considers himself to be a world-historical figure who deserves treatment bordering on reverence. That is why over the years he has surrounded himself with individuals who have a romanticized view of Obama....
When a powerful man like this is successful, it can make him impossible to live with. When a powerful man like this is failing, he can become dangerous.

somebody ought to send him a pair of little steel balls... adn some strawberries.
Wow. It couldn’t be more clear that anyone who disagrees with this would-be-dictator is labeled an “enemy”. God help us if he should ever figure out a way to become President for Life.
I feel a bumper sticker comin' on.... JOE BIDEN FOR PRESIDENT 2010!!!
(Well after all, he is tested and found to be pre-cracked!)
You know what he needs....His Birth Certificate pinned to his forehead.
Well, we knew he had a severe case of malignant narcissism even before he won the election.
Want to know what happens when a malignant narcissist is crossed? Take a look at Hitler.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer fellow. (snicker, snicker)
I still believe that if he and his agenda are repudiated, he will either resign and leave the country or have a nervous break-down. Probably the later so he can blame it on Fox and the Tea Party and get sympathy.
“Fox - Angry, extreme charges”?
Let’s see if we can find examples on Fox;
Glen? No.
Bill? No.
Gretta? No.
Sean? No.
How about on MSNBC?
Mathews? Yes, at least once a week.
Olberman? Yes, nightly.
O’Donnel? Yes, daily.
Quite a few Freepers predicted this.
I remember him in speeches after the health care bill was passed mocking people in his shrill shuck-n-jive voice about how critics said it would be Armageddon, he didn’t realize that the asteroid wouldn’t impact until November.
“Want to know what happens when a malignant narcissist is crossed? Take a look at Hitler.”
There are other parallels as well. Hitler was a “dilettante dictator.” He was a great campaigner who loved the hear himself speak before adoring throngs, but once in office he wouldn’t put in a hard day’s work. Oh, I guess in some ways it’s an unfair comparison. To my knowledge, Hitler never swung a golf club.
Sounds like a good time for a re-Photoshop of the infamous Thorazine ad.
The Tea {party. like Soylant Green, is People.
People who are fed up with the way this dipstick is crewing up OUR country.
It isnt lobbying groups or powerful special interest, but people , People who have had too much of Obama’s crap shoved down their throats.
Too much of borrowed money and trillions printed up with nothing behind it. People who earn their living being forced into living on less because he wants to distribute the money of hard working Americans to people who wouldnt hit a lick at a fly.
Enough of apologies to countries who hate us when Aemrica has nothing to apologise for.
Enough of Illegals coming into America and costing us Billions of dollars.
Troubled by what he represents as President. WTF does that mean?
He is playing the Race Card?/
Things are pretty bad when it comes to the President of the United States lowering himself to playing the Race Card. He should be ashamed of himself.
I hate it when people compare Barry to Hitler; at least Hitler was able to secure the Olympics for his country.
Ooooh, I pray it happens.(Resigning and leaving the country.) I would even volunteer to help them pack their stuff. The WH is going to need some serious decontamination after this sleazy administration leaves.
Good point; touche.
The ballot box can't remove a President for Life.
If it gets to that point, it is time to move on to the next box ...
