<br /> But during an afternoon speech to address the budget/debt, he  took his scornful, unstable despotic behavior to depths that should give the  nation cause for concern. Displaying a dark psychopathy more representative of  an episode of "The Tudors" television series, he invited Rep. Paul Ryan,  R-Wis.., to sit in the front row during his speech and then proceeded to berate  both Ryan and Ryan's budget-cutting plan. Even liberal Democrats were put off by  the act. MSNBC's Joe Scarborough questioned the sanity of Obama's  actions.</p>
<p>Today, criticism is coming from all sides. A senior  Democrat lawmaker said, "I have been very disappointed in [Obama], to the point  where I'm embarrassed that I endorsed him.. It's so bad that some of us are  thinking, is there some way we can replace him? How do you get rid of this guy?"  ("Democrats' Disgust with Obama," The Daily Beast, April 15,  2011)<br /> <br /> Steve McCann wrote: Obama's speech "was chock full of lies,  deceit and crass fear-mongering. It must be said that [he] is the most  dishonest, deceitful and mendacious person in a position of power I have ever  witnessed" ("The Mendacity of Barack Obama," American Thinker.. com, April 15,  2011).<br /> <br />McCann continued: "[His] performance was the  culmination of four years of outright lies and narcissism that have been largely  ignored by the media, including some in the conservative press and political  class who are loath to call [him] what he is in the bluntest of terms: a liar  and a fraud. That he relies on his skin color to intimidate, either outright or  by insinuation [against] those who oppose his radical agenda only add to his  audacity. It is apparent that he has gotten away with his character flaws his  entire life, aided and abetted by sycophants around him. …"<br /> <br /> With these  being among the kinder rebukes being directed at Obama, and with people becoming  less intimidated by his willingness to use race as a bludgeon, with falling poll  numbers in every meaningful category and an increasingly aggressive tea-party  opposition – how much longer before he cracks completely?<br /> <br /> The coming  months of political life are not going to be pleasant for Obama. Possessed by a  self-perceived palatine mindset, that in his mind places him above criticism,  how long before he cracks in public? Can America risk a man with a documented  track record of lying and misrepresenting truth as a basic way of life, who is  becoming increasingly more contumelious?<br /> <br /> Mychal Massie is a  nationally recognized political activist, pundit and columnist.
