WASHINGTON -- Curling up into the political fetal position and begging others to do what he does not have the guts to do himself, President Obama yesterday issued an executive order establishing the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform.

"The politics of dealing with chronic deficits is fraught with hard choices and therefore it's treacherous to officeholders here in Washington," Obama said as he outsourced the single most basic and important responsibility he and Congress has to the American people:

To behave like adults with our money.

For starters, we need a law that states that no spending bill may be passed and signed into law without first being read by all members of congress. This is the job we sent them to Washington for.

No one who examines Zer0’s personal history could doubt that he is complex-ridden with more hangups than a walk-in closet. He has been an outsider and a misfit all his life who has practiced the “fake it until you make it” axiom but now has shown the world what he really is - a boob and a bungler. A very radical boob but a boob nonetheless.

Obama's 2011 budget request includes a new spending item; $1.4 BILLION to help developing nations fight climate change and limit carbon emissions when man caused global warming is a total FRAUD. Obama's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform has one goal, RAISE TAXES when the real problem is IRRESPONSIBLE SPENDING.

I assume you mean “The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders?”

A definite fit - he’s one sick puppy.

yes-he has a personality disorder (a few actually) and there is no fix for that, no meds and the he will NEVER change.

it’s very scary to have him ‘in charge’...that actually makes him WORSE!

When do you think he will have his total mental collapse and what will it be like?

Thank you.

We know he is not well upstairs, but I would love for someone like yourself with your professional background to pinpoint some of these disorders since you mentioned he has several which can’t be fixed.

I would really love to get a handle on this.

Thank you.

He won’t have one. His ego would never allow that. He’s a narcissistic sociopath, not a psychopath or neurotic person.

He must be admired and he is always right-in his mind. So he will adapt/change if he has to, but only if it serves him. These are not generally people who ‘snap’-they just re-invent and put on another mask.
