The one thing that is striking about Obama is his anger. It never seems to leave him. Obama is consumed by anger. You can tell when he struggles to keep his anger under control in the face of protests. His smiles are not those of warmth but of disdain or mockery. Obama's anger is a leftist anger. He's angry at America and Israel. He's also angry at the Europeans.
Obama's persona is contrived in many ways. Yet something I've come to realize about Obama is that behind his narcissistic veneer is someone who may be severely damaged. Obama has been groomed by Leftists and the one Leftist looming large in Obama's life was Frank Marshall Davis who was believed to be abusive to little children.
What I wonder is how abusive was Davis to Obama? If there was abuse, was it used as a tool to radicalize Obama. Further, is this also the reason he seems to have such disdain for his white family? If there was abuse, did they fail to protect him?
Abuse and dehumanization would explain extreme narcissism as a defense mechanism. Drug abuse, as a means of escape from disturbing memories, could have been another result of physical and mental abuse. No doubt, Obama would have developed numerous coping mechanisms allowing him to suspend moral qualms about lying in order to cope and manipulate those around him to soothe his fragile psyche.
Perhaps Obama deserves disdain for his actions, an assertion I wholeheartedly beleive. However, until now, I would have never believed that he may deserve our pity as well.
He isn't getting pity from me.
I do not pity the foo. He is an adult. Beyond childhood where you are in life is the sum result of your actions. Somehow, he rose pretty high despite them. Bush for all of his faults never once cried like a baby because people said mean things about him, and if obama had 1 eleventy billionth the mean things said about him that Bush had said about him since the first day he was elected he probably we have already shot up a post office.
“Would have shot up a post office”, not “we”...sorry
All of what you say is true, but Obammie did not get where he is on his own.
The neo-Marxist have been grooming him for some time, and with his ignorance, remains a puppet of those who want America destroyed.
There's no liar lying like an angry man.
It's why you can't have a civilized debate with a liberal. In their hearts, they know that what they're trying to convince you of is a lie. Because they sense that you know they're lying, they blow up on you.
It's basic human nature, and something that most of us learn when we're kids. We seem to forget this simple wisdom as we grow older, and are confronted with complex arguments and relationships, but the basics never change.
Obama is always angry, because he's a walking, talking lie, from start to finish. A complete and utter fraud.
he was teased alot in his younger days because of his ears. He’s extremely thin skinned and if you mock him, it really gets under his skin
He's kind of like those who think artists should be excused from common courtesy because they're geniuses--Obama thinks he's a genius who should be excused from bourgeois measures of excellence like delivering lower unemployment when you say you will, instead of increasing it.
Note that he was known not for bringing quality to the Harvard Law Review but "balance" (multiculturalism):

(Please note, the only thing he may have published in the Review was an unsigned note about there being no fetal rights for the unborn.)
We know about the community organizing--more about him hanging around with people who agreed with him and cheered him when he advocated for them.
Then he ran for president, surrounded, as usual, by paid staffers and friendly crowds and fawning journalists.
He entered the White House never having to work with people who have opposing views that had to be considered--when "advocating" he never had to deal with what the other side thought, just had to make demands.
He has a leftist's view of America as a powerful, crushing capitalist monstrosity that causes all the world's ills, and the US isn't the solution for anything, but the problem. When it is cut down to size, all nations will be equal, and everyone'll be happy cuz no one will have anything others don't.
He's mad at Israel because he wants to be the one who brought peace to that area, and Israel's determination to exist is in the way of that--his and Palestine's idea of peace being the peace of the grave for those damned pesky Jews.
Whether with the friendly criminals of Chicago or the nauseatingly boot-licking press, Obama is happiest when he can sit there being smug around people who believe in his superiority; he gets mad when he's expected to display mere competence (and fails).
I think he hates himself for being a purple lipped sissy.
Something sure ain’t right with this guy.
Something ain’t right with McCain either.
We were just so screwed last election...
Just imagine how grumpy he’ll be after November....
He just an arrogant, narcissist a’hole. He’s only angry when he doesn’t get his way or having trouble getting his way or when people criticize him. Criticism is devastating to a narcissist. Then they can become dangerously angry and revengeful.
AND the fact that he’s married to a woman(that’s debatable) and wants to be with men.
I anticipate a Commodus type melt down by Zerø in the near future.
Who would, in their right mind , pity a dangerous mad dog!!?
Other mad dogs I guess. I have no pity for 0 at all.
He’s emotions are frozen at his abuse age; he’s a mental wreck.
We don’t know the half of it.
The kicker, we have replaced his family and abusers as the hate object. He has to make the world pay. Same beast, different name.
All dictators have dysfubctional histories.
He makes Jim Jones look like Mary.Poppins.
Now you really don't believe that he was elevated mysteriously do you? I think it is safe to say he 'rose' in the ranks because of being a minority. Did he 'pay' anything for Columbia? Did he 'pay' anything for Harvard? Did Michelle? I think we all know the answer to those questions
ANY job he ever got since college - did he really compete for and 'earn' them? No, probably not.
He is the very epitome of the imbalance of favor towards minority 'opportunities' [favoritism]. Yet, he rails against and plots the downfall of the very system which elevated him. He's a hatred-filled vessel with little ability who is a slick talker and knows how to play ignorant people.
Post turtle.
And there's no sadder turtle than a post-turtle that needs desparately for everyone to believe it really can climb a post.
The vast majority of his anger was caused by the rejection by both his mother and his father.
