The Boulevard of Broken Dreams

I would love to know what is going on with the Democrats right about now. I keep remembering Daley going to Chicago some months ago. Since then he’s kept a fairly low profile. If this were ancient Rome perhaps Great Leader would have, by now, uttered, ‘You too, Daley?’ But in these times there are those who work behind the scenes, hold meetings, and keeping the troops together. There is probably a shadow DNC waiting for Great Leader and his inner circle to lose the election - just like the rest of the country.

One person said he takes a stack of briefing books. Others aren’t sure what he does.

Take your pick.

One veteran Democratic campaign operative put it more bluntly when asked to assess Obama’s approach: “He just hates politics and politicians.”

Most despot-minded, wanna-be communist dictators do hate "politics and politicians." They think of those things as being "beneath" them and "petty." Which is why The Won always talks down to people!

His narcissism is the very reason that he still holds his head high; at this point, most normal people, even the least-humbled, SHOULD know, WOULD know, it is time to be humble - not this man! That will NOT happen!

Actually, I don't know if any of this is really true. Think about Obama's life...has he ever really worked? Has he ever really had to apply himself to something? Certainly not as a community organizer. As a state senator and then US senator, he frequently didn't vote or voted present. Now as president, he really has to work, the office itself demands it. You can't vote present as President. There are too many people knocking on the door of the oval office needing answers and decisions.

I think he's just as vain and narcissistic as he's always been. I think he is still a true believer in socialism and antagonistic towards the American system.

However, I honestly think he's just plain 'ol lazy and really doesn't give a damn about putting in the time or effort. He's never had to, why should he now? I can thoroughly see him turning on the light in that private office so that everyone will think he's working and then go watch the game on TV instead.

Bozo leaves it up to the 850 maladjusted loons he’s hired at US expense to run things in his perpetual absence. He is a jackass lunatic marxist moron of the first order.

And furthermore, I don’t like him very much.

[NonValueAdded]

OK, that's actually the parkway of broken promises. (Orlando has lost its municipal mind)

[Aevery_Freeman]

Uhhh...are you sure these are wolves?

Thanks, Tex!

Don’t disagree with that at all!

“That said, I find these constant PC references to Obama as merely a narcissist to be a bit tiresome - he’s a stone-cold psychopath, but that’s not acceptable to say in ‘polite’ discussion, of course.”

Well, it’s not for PC reasons, it’s for understanding, and further, PREDICTING reactions and future behavior.
AND
It’s not an ‘excuse’ either.

In ascending order of DISorder:
NPD
Sociopath
Psychopath

There are no ‘clear’ lines of distinction, I’ll grant you. It’s like the judge said @ obscenity; “I know it when I see it.”
In a way, NPD’s are more maddening, because they operate ‘just under the radar’, as opposed to out-and-out psychos, but in many important ways, their behaviors and actions are just as damaging and corrosive as true psychos.
Cheers!

Hmmmmm. I thought he was still hot and heavy with Kal Penn. Although D. Axlerod does fit the description of the fellers he “met” at Man’s Country in the good old days: White and older.

THEY ARE HYENAS!
