Wow. I admit to reading World Net Daily, but usually do not source them in my blogging. And while I generally agree for the most part in the socio-political philosophy of the site, it sometimes slants in a more harsh manner than I am comfotable with. In the current climate, however, it is a useful tool for an attempt at counterweighting against the obviously more vicious than what’s on the dem-left side.

Still, today’s post does address what should have been a story. American knew nothing of this man and little was asked by a MSM that’s been a PR wing for the Democrat Party for decades now. Any inquiry into the President’s past were trivialized, demonized or squashed outright.

While the hero worship by some in the MSM continues – he was actually asked by a NYT reporter during a presser what enthralled him now about the presidency – his action’s are now completely public, and he can no longer live behind spin. It’s likely to be catching up with him. Hence today’s WND column.

But beyond Obama’s political ideology, many Americans are troubled also by his strange personality attributes: He greatly exaggerates his achievements, expects constant praise and admiration, believes he’s special, doesn’t appear to concern himself with other people’s feelings, expresses disdain for those he feels are inferior, sets unrealistic goals, appears as tough-minded and unemotional, and other qualities – all of which are textbook symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder

If there is a parallel, one only need to take a brief look back at the constant character assasinations of President Bush advanced by Democrarts and their media flacks. Narcissism cuts deep though and is applied differently than any other perceived failing of Bush. Listen to what these observers say:

Indeed, the word “narcissist” is increasingly being applied to America’s 44th president. Pulitzer prize-winning columnist and former psychiatrist Charles Krauthammer asks, “Does the narcissism of this man know no bounds?” Jack Kelly, journalist and former high-ranking Reagan administration Pentagon official, says: “The most dangerous thing about having a narcissist in a position of power is his unwillingness – perhaps his inability – to ever admit error. … Obama acknowledged the troop surge in Iraq has produced dramatic improvements, but said he still would oppose it.” Radio giant Rush Limbaugh said of Obama recently: “He’s supremely narcissistic … This is all about him. This has nothing to do with the country. It has nothing to do with our way of life. Every aspect of his presidency is about building him up, making him appear to be savior, messiah …”

While the quote is easily cast aside by democrats with Limbaugh’s inclusion, Kelly and Kraughthammer are seasoned respected journalists. With Obama’s term providing nothing that coincides with his hope and change mantra and his actions only providing fuel for partisanship, a crisis will test a narcissist. The conditions are perfect for an over reach one way or the other that potentially crush his presidency and harm the nation.

Americans of any persuassion do not want this to happen. Even though Democrats seemed to be rooting against the American armed services in Iraq, Republicans will not doing anything similar. So if Obama fails a test that comes from overseas by over reaching it will give support to the label.

And what blame will American put on the Democrat Party at that point as it was they whom anointed him, enabled him and kept his failings behind the curtain? Will the democrat’s MSM pay a price? Or will they throw him overboard?

We must wait and hope none of this comes to pass. Heaven help us if it does.

It took less than a week before Barack Obama showed weakness. By evoking the name of radio icon Rush Limbaugh to Republican congressional members, the new president displayed not only a lack of sophistication in philosophy but also in personal weakness.

To play the Limbaugh card to the face of Republican legislators demonstrates just how little he respects and understands positions contrary to his own. Its one thing to associate the radio giant with voters but quite another to believe that seasoned and hardened pols march in lock step to what Limbaugh says on the radio. This was a disturbing lack of savvy in this demonstration and revealed desperation when faced with anything but adulation.

Those GOP members of congress must have left unimpressed, but also concerned that the new president has a tendency to see things through an extremely narrow set of core perceptions. It signals that he will seek out the extreme left of his party at signs of pressure. But it indicates, too, that he may also lash out unnecessarily in a manner which favors our enemies. The later should be of the greatest concern to the people of our nation no matter their political leanings.
