I found a poll where 51.1% of Americans polled approved of the job Obama is doing as president. It's the only poll that counts and it took place on Nov. 6, 2012.

Please pass this on to hcap.
Thank you.

Well...it could also mean "conceited or egotistical".
But if you use it this way...then you would have to label ALL the presidential candidates as such.
Don't you HAVE to be "conceited or egotistical" to a pretty large extent if you presume to lead a powerful nation like ours?

A good example of narcissism would be someone losing an election and not having a concession speech prepared because you can not conceive of losing.
Another example would be disappearing from public life for months after that loss because you were incapable of dealing with that loss.
That same politician famously stated that he enjoys firing people. A person enjoys firing people because doing so gives them a feeling of power. An exaggerated need for power is a sign of narcissism. A person enjoys firing people because he lacks the ability to understand how being fired affects the person being fired. Lack of empathy is a classic sign of narcissism.
Is quoting one's own post a sign of narcissism? I hope not.

I ask Lotta Kash and whoever else want to respond to point out specific actions by President Obama that prove Obama is a narcissist and you tell me to read a book. Answer the question as asked.

You heard it here first.
2016 - Repubs take WH, Senate and House.

So, at what point does he say, "I can't take this anymore, f**k it, I quit."
January 20, 2017?

I am pretty sure you guys will have BM working as an official repug pollster in '016. That is if Fox doesn't hire him first.
(Hey BM, if you do wind up at Fox, soak 'em for all their worth )

Judging by your signature line, and the fact that you always THINK you know what someone meant, even when they say something entirely different, you would qualify.

I never did like that speech, really the country should just stay out of your business and enforce laws, contracts, etc.
http://spectator.org/blog/2011/01/20...on-jfks-innaug
On the 50th Anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s innaugural address, I couldn’t help but think of Milton Friedman’s take on the speech’s most famous line, which served as the opening of Friedman’s 1962 classic Capitalism and Freedom:
“In a much quoted passage in his inaugural address, President Kennedy said, “Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.” Neither half of the statement expresses a relation between the citizen and his government that is worthy of the ideals of free men in a free society. The paternalistic “what your country can do for you” implies that government is the patron, the citizen the ward, a view that is at odds with the free man’s belief in his own responsibility for his own destiny. The organismic, “what you can do for your ‘country”implies the government is the master or the deity, the citizen, the servant or the votary.
To the free man, the country is the collection of individuals who compose it, not something over and above them. He is proud of a common heritage and loyal to common traditions. But he regards government as a means, an instrumentality, neither a grantor of favors and gifts, nor a master or god to be blindly worshipped and served. He recognizes no national goal except as it is the consensus of the goals that the citizens severally serve. He recognizes no national purpose except as it is the consensus of the purposes for which the citizens severally strive.
The free man will ask neither what his country can do for him nor what he can do for his country. He will ask rather “What can I and my compatriots do through government” to help us discharge our individual responsibilities, to achieve our several goals and purposes, and above all, to protect our freedom? And he will accompany this question with another: How can we keep the government we create from becoming a Frankenstein that will destroy the very freedom we establish it to protect?

That could be wishful thinking if Obamalama gets his Amnesty passed and millions more Democrat voters.

Answer the questions found here. Take the test for yourself.
Then, if you can be objective, answer the questions as if you were Obama. It should not be too difficult, just think about the way he's presented himself and responded to situations in the last 5 to 6 years. If you're honest, even with a moderate degree of giving him the benefit of the doubt, Obama's score is very high and definitely has narcissistic traits.
For those wanting to cut to the bottom line, same web site, here's their discussion of the traits: http://psychcentral.com/disorders/na...rder-symptoms/
