I've just been reading the following article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism

I kept on being reminded of a particular person, by phrases such as:

- Narcissists think they are better than others - Narcissists' views tend to be contrary to reality - Narcissists perceive themselves to be unique and special people - Research upon narcissists’ behaviour in resource dilemmas supports the case for narcissists as being selfish - An unrealistic sense of superiority - Pursues power at all costs, lacks normal inhibitions in its pursuit - Devalues and exploits others without remorse - Lacks values

Who do you think the person is? (And no, it's not me, before the first "clever" supporter of Mr X predictably says so....)
