'My Behalf'

In part of his pro-gay marriage address, Obama mentions that his logic includes that "sailors and soldiers are out there fighting on my behalf." Perhaps bored with the rote homosexual outrage, a number of Freepers take it out of context, and fasten onto this as proof of Obama's eeeevil narcissism.

rfreedom4u thinks Obama meant troops fight on the President's behalf:

That is complete and utter bull$h1t!! We are sworn to “support and defend the CONSTITUTION” not that bastard. And while we are doing just that, he pisses all over it and us.

mongo141 just wallows in rage:

FK him, the little Marxist SOB! Didn’t he ever hear of the rest of the country. I am so angry I can hardly type. All the years of crappy food and no full nights sleep while I am out on sub patrols and getting shot at and I have HIM for a Prez?, Little Narsistic SOB, the guy belongs in a mental hospital. Sorry one and all, I shouldn’t respond to statements like that without going and sitting in a dark room for a while, I am just too old to get my B/P jacked up like that.

Gay State Conservative sees proof Obama thinks like a dictator:

Un-flippin-believable! Let's scan the history books to see which armies were expected to serve a *leader* instead of a *nation*... Nazi Germany,that's an easy one The People's Liberation Army? The Soviet Red Army? The North Vietnamese Army?

combat_boots also:

This is creepy. It’s despotic. The guy thinks himself King. He has to be from someplace that had a king when he lived there. Americans think of A king, not King.

livius:

Whatever he is, Obama makes me absolutely sick. How in the world did we ever end up with such a megalomanic lunatic in the WH?

Easy, you made him up.

Xyz22 actually cedes the point, but is still furious:

He says these things and has NO CLUE. Of course, they are fighting on his behalf. Who or what else could our men and women in the military be fighting for?! God, what a despicable man.

haroldeveryman adds in the gay angle:

Apparently, Barry just couldn’t accept the idea that soldiers and sailors out there were fighting on HIS behalf until he could see himself as reigning over the first gay superpower since Sparta. God save the queen!

ArmyTeach goes in for the Freudian analysis:

Wasn’t it Indonesia and wasn’t Suharto the so-called President, in power for decades with virtual absolute power? And didn’t Obama spend his formative years in Indonesia? Childhood experience can have a profound and lasting influence.

CitizenM does the distance psychoanalysis, in great detail.

I lived with a narcissist. The signs are very clear once a person has experienced them. Obama is what is called a Malignant Narcissist. There is lots and lots of information on the web that describes that emotional condition...and almost all of it describes Obama. We all have a bit of healthy narcissism, it is what helps us overcome negative situations and strive for goals and have a normal level of self-esteem. With Obama, as with other Narcissists, what evolves is a very unhealthy, unbalanced, need to be loved and appreciated because sometime in their life they suffered an extremes sense of being unworthy. Obama's narcissistic personality probably resulted from not knowing who his father really was, being dragged to Indonesia by his mother to live with another man who, apparently, had no close or loving ties with Obama, and of course, being abandoned by Mom to live with grandparents who didn't seem to happy about the situation and having a bi-racial grandson.

...

Obama has a very serious condition and I am sure those who are closest to him, and promote/support him are well aware that his psyche is quite disturbed. I am sure they have continually done whatever they could, whatever was necessary, to keep him from breaking down under the pressures of criticism and failures. But they have used him for their own anti-American, hateful goals because the Narcissist needs to be loved, adored, and needed every minute of his life and that makes him gullible. As long as his puppeteers feed his fragile ego, he willingly performs as they wish. This is why, for years and years, I have said that all high level elected officials should have to undergo a thorough psychiatric test before being having their name on a ballot.

unkus fantasizes that this isn't going to end well.

He’s evil and extremely dangerous. I think we’ll see a nasty show down.

little jeremiah sums it all up:

There is nothing - not one dang thing - that Zero has ever said, every done, or could ever say, or do, that is praiseworthy, benign, or even neutral. He is 100% evil.
