Obama does not speak. He reads. This does not bode well for TOTUS.
Follow the yellow brick road.
Psychopath (or sociopath) in Chief; convince me otherwise …
Lying is a way of life for these people, they lie to manipulate and get what they want, usually a ‘grand’ feeding of the ego.
Please, someone, tell me I’m wrong.

Characteristics of Psychopathy
http://lifestealers.homestead.com/Characeristics-checklist.html
KEY FEATURES OF PSYCHOPATHY – Robert Hare
Glib and Superficial
Psychopaths are often voluble and verbally facile. They can be amusing and entertaining conversationalists, ready with a clever comeback, and are able to tell unlikely but convincing stories that cast themselves in a good light.
Egocentric and Grandiose
Psychopaths have a narcissistic and grossly inflated view of their own self-worth and importance, a truly astounding egocentricity and sense of entitlement, and see themselves as the centre of the universe, justified in living according to their own rules.
Lack of Remorse or Guilt
Psychopaths show a stunning lack of concern for the effects their actions have on others, no matter how devastating these might be. They may appear completely forthright about the matter, calmly stating that they have no sense of guilt, are not sorry for the ensuing pain, and that there is no reason now to be concerned.
Lack of Empathy
Many of the characteristics displayed by psychopaths are closely associated with a profound lack of empathy and inability to construct a mental and emotional “facsimile” of another person. They seem completely unable to “get into the skin” of others, except in a purely intellectual sense.
Shallow Emotions
Psychopaths seem to suffer a kind of emotional poverty that limits the range and depth of their feelings. At times they appear to be cold and unemotional while nevertheless being prone to dramatic, shallow, and short-lived displays of feeling. Careful observers are left with the impression they are playacting and little is going on below the surface.
Poor Behavior Controls
Besides being impulsive, psychopaths are highly reactive to perceived insults or slights. Most of us have powerful inhibitory controls over our behaviour; even if we would like to respond aggressively we are usually able to “keep the lid on.” In psychopaths, these inhibitory controls are weak, and the slightest provocation is sufficient to overcome them. But, their actions have a “cold” and focused quality about them, and return to “normal” is quick.

I would tell you that you are wrong – but then I would be lying.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the big lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” ~ Dr Joseph Goebbels
The follow-up is those who tell the truth or try are enemies of the state and if they can not be shut-up they are executed. Gives a whole new meaning to “Homeland Security”
Gail, the subject is psychopaths in positions of power; once you have crossed the Rubicon into Psychopath-land the telling of lies is routine … or haven’t you been paying attention to my ‘lecture series’ on this subject?
And I am taking it the one step further.
Psychopaths become very very dangerous when you expose their lies. They are your “Buddy” as long as you go along with what ever they say. Challenge them and they can and will try to kill you. – BTDT and have the scars to prove it.
Tell me this doesn’t fit Barack Hussein Obama to a “T”:

Psychopaths suffer from the most extreme form of narcissism.
Narcissists put others down, or dominate them, in order to get validation as superior to them. Usually such individuals seem to be exactly as they are: smug, snobby, self-absorbed to the point of being ridiculous.
Since psychopaths wear a mask of sanity, however, their narcissism is better camouflaged, at least initially. It’s also far more acute and dangerous.
Psychopaths put others down in order to crush them. No matter how charming and modest they may seem in superficial contact, their ego feeds upon the victimization of others, including–or rather, especially–their family members, spouses, lovers and children.
They aren’t satisfied with simply proving their superiority. They need to also humiliate and harm those around them in order to feel empowered and superior to them.
Clinically speaking, narcissism constitutes what Hervey Cleckley calls in The Mask of Sanity a “pathological egocentricity and incapacity for love.”
Narcissists are so self-absorbed that they can’t envision the needs and reactions of others. They regard others as mirrors whose main role is to reflect–and magnify–the image of their own greatness.
Although psychopaths are narcissistic to an extreme, they’re also far worse than most narcissists. At least most narcissists—excluding perhaps “malignant narcissists”–can experience self-doubt. They also need love and validation from other individuals .

As I recall very soon after Obummer took office someone in print pointed out his narcissism.
He is either a liar or incapable of managing the regulatory state so as to deliver on his promises. Of course, it could be both.
And of course whether he is a full-blown sociopath or psychopath has little bearing on anything because most people assume (or think) that other people ‘think’ like they ‘think’ … when nothing could be further from the truth.
There are, quite literally, monsters out there, ready to take advantage of you; some of those monsters are in politics. And they don’t give a d*mn what you or I think.

AMEN!
You do not have to be a Christian to know evil when it is front and center. One encounter is enough. I worked with a guy who thought it was outrageously funny that a girl he and his buddies gang raped in college turned around and committed suicide. That is just one example among many. This guy was very very scary and my roomie was stupid enough to date him.
The way he handled the Rev. Wright episode in the 2008 campaign–by lying–had nothing to do with “managing the regulatory state”. The lie he told–and had all of his surrogates, including Hillary Clinton, tell–about Benghazi, had nothing to do with “managing the regulatory state”. I don’t see how any reasonably competent mind can still be in any doubt that he has lied consistently, inveterately, at every step, since he entered the national spotlight (and no doubt from early youth, as his published thoughts and his longtime associations show). But he is not a psychopath, to the point of hurting those CLOSE to him (though he is a pathological liar before the American people); he identifies with Muslims and Blacks, and uses what he considers subtle means–i.e., abuse of his political position and authority–to harm those he has been taught from youth are suppressive of those he identifes with. But his means are NOT subtle (so he is incompetent in his delusion of superiority over his enemies), because he telegraphs them with blatant lies and because their effects are so consistently hurtful, the opposite of what he promises (and of what reasoning people can see from the outset will be hurtful).
The root of Obama’s problem – did it stem from rejection by his parent(s)?
– – – – – – –
But it is events in very early child hood that may be the real key to the psychopath. In trying to understand the underlying cause of the psychopath’s many traits, some psychiatrists have focused on one: aggr ession. Whether they are vio lent criminals or male viol ent boss es, all psychopaths appear to be wag ing a war with the rest of us.
The cause of this aggr ession often seems to be be fear – a deep-seated fear triggered by parental rejection. The rejection may have followed a difficult birth or early post-natal problems that prevented genuine emotional bonding between the parent and the child. It may be simply that the child was unwanted, a burden on an already hard-pressed family.

Whatever the cause, such an infant quickly gains an impression of the world as a harsh, unforgiving, even vic ious place. In time it comes to believe that it can trust no-one, and must learn to outwit those that would do it harm.

My brother is a sociopath and came from a loving home. The guy I just mentioned was the same. A neighbor’s child who liked to torture and kill animals had loving, kind and very exasperated parents. Another friend with two children had a normal younger child. The older child was completely unmanageable and would do as she wished no matter what forces were brought to bare. Only HER WISHES counted, pleasing her parents, bribery, disipline nothing worked. Both he parents had PhDs in Psychiatry (MDs with a concentration in Psychology)
I think you are looking at something inborn in many cases. I have seen personality traits passed from father to offspring with my sheep, goats and horses. (Different mothers)
This is not to say you can not make an animal or person vicious through bad experiences.
That may have been part of the problem. joshua over at Dr. Curry’s blog says he has been under a shrink’s care for 40 years. I will stop there, as my view of the profession is off topic.
+1 for the likely genetic influence, Gail.
At least the male ones.
If one has to go to a psychiatrist for years, then its not working. The shrink merely becomes a counselor and someone to listen. I have a friend who has gone for years and she is just plain crazy, eat up with OCDS and unreasonable fear of germs for one, always sick with something, very unsocial and she is nearly 70 yrs old.
Confidentially? Confidently?
Read my lips!
