the libs are having a hard time rationalizing the actions of a nutcase...we are either ‘too stupid’ or ‘too racist’ to understand the suffering genius..

instead we are to ‘understand’ the pressures of the genius whilst he overcame the ULTIMATE tortures that dogged his youth...

notice their recent attempts to compare him to Lincoln (who was ‘wracked with melancholy’....)

Thanks for the ping. I read this earlier. It’s interesting, but it misses a couple of fundamental points. First and most obviously, he doesn’t try to compromise w Republicans. Whoever can not only think that but write it in a published essay reveals themselves to be a lousy observer.

Secondly and more importantly, it treats sociopathy as a minor thing. Oh, he’s just detached from his feelings and he operates on a purely intellectual plane. My cow. That’s like saying a person dying of lung cancer is suffering a mild allergy. Obama has one of the most serious Personality Disorders known to man. If mental illnesses were hurricanes, he’d be a Cat 5. ‘Years of psychoanalysis’ would not help him. There is no known cure for this type of sociopathy. It happened when he was very young, and barring a divine miracle, he will go to the grave w it.

Still it’s fascinating to see how liberals view Obama and his ‘issues’. There’s a lot of angst going around in leftist circles. They may not get it completely, but they know something’s wrong. Nice that they’re waking up at least to a degree.

Sheesh, what a bunch of psycho-babble.

The simple truth is Obama's a coward. He can't face any difficult situations - he always wants to run away and hide. Some of us in IL knew this even before he *won* (stole) the US Senate race. And that was by his known record in the IL Legislature were 'Brave Barry' voted 'Present' 52 times.

So that's what he's doing now as POTUS, voting 'Present'. His latest 'Present vote' being his passing the buck to that so-called Super Committee. And prior to that is was blaming Bush 105 times for his own screw-ups or running from the problem at hand.

It would not surprise me if that 'after work', up in the White House living quarters, Moose-hell dresses him up in a latex bodysuit and hangs him in a closet for the night. And before she turns out the light and closes the closet door, just for good measure she whips him for being a buffoon and complete failure.

Oops, the spell check demon got me..
"were 'Brave Barry' voted", should be: "where 'Brave Barry' voted"
