Obama’s continued pathological lying can only damage America. First, it instructs the public such behavior is acceptable. Moreover, Barack’s demagoguery is extraordinarily dangerous, since the average person has no means of independently verifying his claims, meaning voters fly blind for information on state policies and elections. This must change. The first step is replacing a hideously corrupt and incompetent mainstream media, already underway due to suicidally biased tendencies.
M. Scott Peck essayed on pathologically dishonest persons in People of the Lie.9 According to Peck, (a Christian convert after becoming a psychiatrist) people who habitually lie cross the line and become evil, devolving into enemies of humanity in their desire to hide deceptive and evil natures. He writes,
“Evil is the exercise of political power—that is, the imposition of one’s will upon others by overt or covert coercion in order to avoid spiritual growth. Because their willfulness is so extraordinary, and always accompanied by a lust for power, I suspect that the evil are more likely than most to politically aggrandize themselves…The malignantly narcissistic insist upon “affirmation independent of all findings.” Self-criticism is a call to personality change…The evil are pathologically attached to the status quo of their personalities, which, in their narcissism, they consciously regard as perfect. I think it is quite possible that the evil may perceive even a small degree of change in their beloved selves as representing total annihilation…They project their own evil onto the world. They never think of themselves as evil; on the other hand, they consequently see much evil in others…”
"Barack Obama obviously assumes his lies cannot be stopped and they aid change. But what does it mean Obama needs and feels privileged to lie? Certainly, that his policies are unacceptable if transparently presented. Further, that Barack carries Pragmatist definitions of truth and right and wrong inside, which, as discussed—is functionally indistinguishable from Marx’s diabolical ethics.
The above is from The Canada Free Press, which I know absolutely nothing about 'but' .. Everyone needs to read this entire article: Our Demagogue in Chief
People of the Lie is a good book - great description of commonalities of how a lot of evil people operate. I need to get another copy and read it again - it’s probably been a decade.
