Narcissism in Action

The weird part is his asking everyone else's impression of this Musca domestica...brings up this analysis done by an Israeli psychologist on this type of personality...a sampler:

Obama displays the following behaviors, which are among the hallmarks of pathological narcissism:

• Subtly misrepresents facts and expediently and opportunistically shifts positions, views, opinions, and "ideals" (e.g., about campaign finance, re-districting). These flip-flops do not cause him overt distress and are ego-syntonic (he feels justified in acting this way). Alternatively, refuses to commit to a standpoint and, in the process, evidences a lack of empathy.
• Ignores data that conflict with his fantasy world, or with his inflated and grandiose self-image. This has to do with magical thinking. Obama already sees himself as president because he is firmly convinced that his dreams, thoughts, and wishes affect reality. Additionally, he denies the gap between his fantasies and his modest or limited real-life achievements (for instance, in 12 years of academic career, he hasn't published a single scholarly paper or book).
• Feels that he is above the law, incl. and especially his own laws.
• Talks about himself in the 3rd person singular or uses the regal "we" and craves to be the exclusive center of attention, even adulation
• Have a messianic-cosmic vision of himself and his life and his "mission".
• Sets ever more complex rules in a convoluted world of grandiose fantasies with its own language (jargon)
• Displays false modesty and unctuous "folksiness" but unable to sustain these behaviors (the persona, or mask) for long. It slips and the true Obama is revealed: haughty, aloof, distant, and disdainful of simple folk and their lives.
  

And even more chilling:

The University of Chicago Law School provided him a lot longer than expected and at the end it evolved into, guess what? His own autobiography! Instead of writing a scholarly paper focusing on race relations, for which he had been paid, Obama could not resist writing about his most sublime self. He entitled the book Dreams from My Father.

Not surprisingly, Adolph Hitler also wrote his own autobiography when he was still nobody. So did Stalin. For a narcissist no subject is as important as his own self. Why would he waste his precious time and genius writing about insignificant things when he can write about such an august being as himself?

Beautiful.
