There is a clinical name for the personality of Barack Obama, and that is a narcisist.

I suspected as much last fall, and now the man’s attitudes etc. are more out in the open.
So, LoTM, he probably, at some level, DOES believe he is the annointed one to deliver America (and maybe, the world) to a trans-national utopia of economic and racial harmony, and just a big enough jerk to try to do anything necessary to accomplish it.

It’s like so many other man-made utopian fanatasies that litter history. The greatest ‘humanitarians’ that ever lived paved the road to the future with a stack of human corpses.
The French Revolution, the Russian Revolution and Civil War, the Purges by Stalin, the Third Reich, the Killing Fields of Cambodia, the forced collectivization of China after Mao finally won the Chinese Civil War.
I don’t think that Obama is a ‘monster’, just a man that will make the most idealistic decisions based on his ‘trust’ of those that do not deserve it, and betrayal of those who thought him to be their friend. His own ego will drive him to do things no rational, sane man would do.
Just by reading the Belmont Club, we cannot wall ourselves off from the larger reality around us. That is, the praise, the fawning of the Media, the Celebrity class that falls all over the man and adores him. This feeds the need he has deep inside him that cannot be filled, and will make him do things that will appall us more in the times ahead. In this he is aided by the imbecilic (Pelosi) and the corrupt (Reid), who both believe they will ride out the storm to their own personal profit. Unhappy fools they will be in the end.
They should remember, that as the fable was told, the Ring can only have one master.

I hope that I am wrong and have misread it all, but I fear that I haven’t.
