With any luck the only place we'll be seeing him is on the side of a milk carton.

Yes, but is it also a manifestation of narcissistic personality disorder? Terrified Americans want to know.

Ben Smith seems to think its a possibility:

"During the 2008 campaign, Hillary Clinton suggested that if the emergency phone rang at 3 a.m. in the White House, you wouldn't want President Obama picking it up...She was wrong. Obama wouldn't pick it up in the first place. He'd let it go to answering machine. He'd be too busy chasing the nearest camera...Obama is the "Girls Gone Wild" president: Stick a lens in front of him and he'll take off his shirt, mince about like a coed, and babble nonsensical nothings to an audience oddly fascinated by his antics...Obama's desperate need for attention is clearly a psychological condition. He drinks in applause like a washed-up movie star..."

More:

"...Obama is an elitist through and through, disdaining ordinary Americans as "bitter [people who] cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them." He is manipulative in the extreme, seeing every crisis as an opportunity to magnify his personal power...Most dangerous, he requires a constant stream of paeans to his persona. ...With one exception: Obama has no interest in the attention or praise of Americans who challenge his radical agenda..."

Obama is always the last to weigh in on important issues.
And the first to respond to frivolous issues .
His first year as president , Obama held a party at the White House
every third night as noted by David Limbaugh
in " Crimes Against Liberty "
- Chapter 1, footnote # 66 .
He ignored General McChrystal for months until General McChrystal finally went public in the fall .
This embarrassing revelation prompted Obama to leap into action and dither
until December on making a
decision on a troop increase for Afghanistan.
One would think that his duties as Commander in Chief would always trump
his ESPN duties, but, apparently not.
Perhaps he thinks he was elected president of Sports Center.
I guarantee that Obama could not name a single battalion or locate a single FOB
in Afghanistan.
He can , however , tick off the latest injury reports from the NBA and NCAA teams ,
while ignoring the daily casualty reports
from the ongoing
combat operations in Afghanistan.
Maybe if our service members sported NBA type uniforms and colorful Nikes,
it might get his attention.
Even Michelle has publicly noted Obama's lack of attention to his formal duties
when she gave an interview to the New York Times in March 2009
and to Barbara Walters this past November.
In both interviews, Michelle Obama reiterated that Barack is too preoccupied
with her clothing and she often tells him
" to stay out of my closet "
and do something useful .
Have we reached the point where Obama's focus
on leisure activities has gone beyond
a personality quirk and become dereliction of duty ?

Pompous Jackanape in Chief. Obama diddles while the world burns.

Mark, preach it, bro. *fist bump*

I miss 'W'

How long can the media keep selling the illusion that this "deeply" shallow affirmative action shirker is a big brain with a fine education and temperament? Without his Alinsky playbook and teleprompter he's a stumbling fool. Anyone who pays the slightest bit of attention to more than skin color and pant creases can see this.
