Obama's Sociopaths

In recent weeks I have been receiving a stream of hostile posts from Obama supporters. The posts' crude content has forced me to enable the moderator feature on replies. I've been getting about 500 views a day for the past week or two but I don't get a huge number of replies. Most of those that I do get, including the ones that argue with my views, are first rate. The exceptions are the pro-Obama posts, whose tone, lack of intellectual back-up and vulgarity are consistent with my assessment of the candidate. As well, the now-defunct New York Sun covered a shut-down of this blog, apparently due to complaints by Obama supporters.

Obama's supporters reflect the candidate's pathology. As I have previously blogged, Barack Obama is a sociopath, that is, someone with an incomplete conscience. He is far from unique among politicians, which is part of the reason why laissez-faire and limited government are necessary, and their weakening by Progressivism poses a serious threat to civil liberties. I would venture to guess that a good 10% of Congresspeople are sociopaths, and a good proportion of corporate executives as well. Fortune once reported that 8% of corporate executives given a written integrity test failed, which is not quite the same thing as saying they are sociopaths, but not far off. In the general population, the percentage of sociopaths is about 2%.

David Warren has posted on Obama's preposterous messianic pretensions (h/t Larwyn). Please allow me to quote from Warren's excellent post:

"...Obama has presented himself from the start as a messianic, "transformational" leader -- and thus played deceitfully with ideas that belong to religion and not politics. That he has done this so successfully is a mark of the degree to which the U.S. itself, like the rest of the western world, has lost its purchase on the Christian religion. Powerful religious impulses have been spilt, secularized.

"In this climate, people tend to be maniacally opposed to the sin to which they are not tempted: to giving Christ control over the things that are Caesar's. But they are blind to the sin to which they are hugely tempted: giving Caesar control over the things that are Christ's.

"'Faith, hope, and charity' are Christ's things. They apply, properly, outside time -- to a "futurity" that is not of this world. They must not be applied to any earthly utopia. A Caesar who appropriates otherworldly virtues, is riding upon very dangerous illusions. Follow him into dreamland, and you'll be lucky to wake up."

This kind of illusion is the stock in trade of con men and totalitarian dictators. It was true of Hitler, Marx, Stalin, and Castro. More generally, sociopaths tend to be charismatic or transformational. As well, they frequently engage in self-pity. We have heard repeated self-pitying complaints from both Barack and Michelle Obama about his (in my opinion kid gloves) handling by Fox News and by bloggers. There is little doubt in my mind that this sociopath cum "messiah" is capable of silencing mainstream media outlets like Fox as well as bloggers through suppressive executive action. I do believe that all Americans who might disagree with Obama's thuggery are in danger.

PS--Welcome back Larwyn. Keep slugging away!

McCain Sings Streisand

Raquel Okyay just forwarded this tape of John McCain singing Barbara Streisand. "She's been trying to do his job for a long time, now listen to what happens when he does her's"! Very funny. Almost as funny as Streisand's Progressive political ideas. Really.

Obama Rocks the Youth Vote While The Market's In Trauma

Contrairimairi just sent me this video. Is it the new Obama theme song?

"Obama, Obama, he won't say where he's froma"...Video located here.

Contrairimairi Angrier Than Ever

I just received the following e-mail from "Contrairimairi", who is upset about Barack Obama's unwillingness to open his books to the American people:

>Who cares about Obama's plan to "spread the wealth". This man is a Constitutional lawyer, and in the Phil Berg lawsuit, he has effectively argued that American citizens have "no standing" under the Constitution to insure that he is an American citizen, duly qualified by protections in the Constitution set forth by the Founding Fathers.

This is the MOST dangerous aspect of the ENTIRE election. Barack Obama, possibly an illegal alien by American law, is insuring that NO ONE can challenge his status to be a Senator, or POTUS.

The Founding Fathers feared that just such a situation might occur, and made explicit provisions in the Constitution to protect America from this very predicament. Mr. Obama has studied well. He found a "technicality" that would work to his benefit, and allow him to use our own court system against American citizens, who have asked only that he adhere to the legal prescriptions that were set forth to protect this great nation from "take-over" by outsiders.

There is not a shred of doubt in my mind now that this man is NOT an American citizen. There is not a shred of doubt in my mind that the reason so many of his "friends" are Anti-American radicals with nothing but contempt and hatred for this Country, and her people, is because they saw in him the "HOPE" and "CHANGE" to take America down from the inside. What so many have tried to do as adversaries from the outside, they saw as a challenge to do using America's own Constitution against her.

Oh........how HAPPY his thugs and Anti-American supporters from within and without this Country must be!

Add to this dilemma, a Democratic Party controlled House and Senate, and those who say America CAN survive this onslaught may just be proven WRONG!
Everyone thought it could never happen......people became apathetic......lost sight of America's precious principles, and now........Obama.

Trust me, his "spread the wealth" endeavors will look like child's play once he and his Democratic cronies who nearly DESTROYED this Country with their Stock Market shenanigans, decide to finish the job they started.
Americans will NOT be able to stop it if Obama wins and brings in a Congress that has NO RESTRAINTS.
