Maureen Dowd, "Alone Again, Naturally": Why Doesn't Obama Go to St. Louis?

In her latest New York Times op-ed entitled "Alone Again, Naturally," Maureen Dowd, frustrated by Obama's disappearing act, asks:

"Why should the president neutralize himself? Why doesn’t he do something bold and thrilling? Get his hands dirty? Stop going to Beverly Hills to raise money and go to St. Louis to raise consciousness? Talk to someone besides Valerie Jarrett?"

Answer? Simple. See the Mayo Clinic's definition of narcissism:

"Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance and a deep need for admiration. Those with narcissistic personality disorder believe that they're superior to others and have little regard for other people's feelings. But behind this mask of ultra-confidence lies a fragile self-esteem, vulnerable to the slightest criticism."

Ring a bell?

Exhibit genuine compassion in St. Louis or anywhere else for that matter? Get real! It's all about him.
