Given who and what Obama is — a guy who’s never worked hard physically or mentally — it’s no surprise at all to hear him say that America is soft. A malignant narcissist sees everything through his own prism. What he said, folks, is a gentle poke at himself, which is about the maximum in self-criticism you’ll ever hear from a narcissist.
It’s also no surprise that, with Obama in the White House, Vladimir Putin is spending more time than ever having macho pictures of himself publicized:
Putin understands that, while America may not be soft, her leader certainly is, and those contrasting images have a resonating propaganda value.
UPDATE: The Anchoress has a different take. She thinks Obama is hard as nails — when it comes to his Leftism.
