Yes, it’s only too obvious.
I’ve said this before and it applies not just to Obambi but to most leftist leaders (Kerry, Gore, Clinton, Chavez, etc).
Just for the record:
Narcissistic DSM IV Criteria
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
(1) has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
(2) is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
(3) believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
(4) requires excessive admiration
(5) has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
(6) is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
(7) lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
(8) is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
(9) shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes
“NPD is the prime disorder experienced by all the madmen of history from Hitler to Stalin, Mao, Kim, Pol Pot, Osama, Khomeini, Saddam and Idi Amin. These men wreaked havoc and killed millions. They looked normal. Few suspected their insanity until it was too late.”
Is the Pope Catholic?
Maybe he picked it up from Hillary who got it from Bill?
From what I’ve seen, Obama suffers only from delusions of adequacy.
Clinton (both, different disorders) and lately- Pelosi (*yikes) seem notable Obama is worrisome though- some of history's worst leaders have been men who resented and hated their fathers/mothers and inwardly, felt the need to atone for deep rooted insecurities that resulted. Obama sure drew two losing cards for parents...
I don’t think that the senator has a “disorder”.
Obama knows that the liberal base wants a savior and someone to obey without question. He’s just delivering what they want.
Of course, many politicians have high opinions of themselves and are narcissistic, but I don’t think this senator is really exceptional in this regard.
Obama - A legend in his own mind
Obama is *very* aware of what he is. There are people on this board who have met him in person, he's easily the most personable democratic politician. Even hardcore conservatives like him in person.
This is what makes him dangerous. Obama is *not* crazy and has complete control over himself(unlike Billy C).
Underestimate him at your own peril.
Not only does The One, The Obamesiah, Barak Obama have NPD, he has one of the most extreme cases I’ve ever seen. And I have (unfortunately) had to deal with several people with bonafide NPD diagnosises, usually as a result of helping female friends deal with the psychos after a break up. (For some reason, many nice and otherwise intelligent women seem irresistably drawn to NPD types.)
Is the Pope Catholic?
I have never seen a candidate (or a dictator) hold his nose so high. It’s just about parallel to the ground. Typical black snob.
Like the classic narcissist, Obama loses his composure if he is scoffed at or laughed at. Pat Buchanan is adept at responding with laughter at a ridiculous point brought up by an opponent. If McCain can hammer away at Obama’s delusional sense of grandeur, the messiah will respond by looking somewhat less than Presidential.
If the pattern of a narcissist is compared to Obama’s past affiliations, one can conclude that he used Reverend Wright and his church for his political ambitions and did not care a whit about the teachings of the church. He stayed with Wright until he could derive no further benefit, then abandoned the Reverend. The same likely could be said for some of his other associations.
His radical view on abortion is a clear sign of his lack of empathy.
He lies with ease, which is another sure sign.
God willing, this man will never become President.
He’s a DimRat they all do!
Don’t know about NPD, but someone who would say, “we are the ones we’ve been waiting for”, is odd.
To the author of this article,
Lay people who engage in psychiatric diagnosis of people they’ve never met and do not know are...narcissistic.
Obama has done what I thought at one time was impossible, outdone Bill Clinton when it comes to narcissism and ego-centricity.
