Chris Wallace: Obama's 'Heart Isn't Really Into Winning The War On Terror'

Has there ever been a period in US history when a new president faced so many crises on every front?

As a matter of fact, there was. The President was Franklin Roosevelt.

dave,

i'll give you the economy as a huge problem but what two wars did he inherit from the previous administration in 1933 when he took office?

The makings of the one in the Pacific and the one in Europe. There was no way we were going to avoid being involved in either of those. The seeds of the one in Europe were planted in the treaty that ended WWI.

those wars were no where in site in 1933 when roosevelt first entered office and it was his decision to enter the war in europe. the pacific was brought to us, but again, he did not inherit these wars having to face these crisis of a previous administration right out of the box. people now also expect obama to have fixed these situations in less than two years when the economy has had since reagan to get in the fix it is in and the wars where 7 years in the making when obama took office.

Hitler took office in January of 1933 and the Japanese invaded Manchuria in 1931, but whatever you think.

“I frankly find the partisan attacks against this President and resentment towards this president at a time of war unprecedented. “Sean Hannity March 28, 2003

Maybe Sean Hannity isn’t a biased right-wing hatchet man after all. He is a patriotic journalist merely following an established precedent (that he used to think was treasonous).

Sean Hannity used to think it was unpatriotic to criticize a president during wartime. So did Dick Cheney for that matter. In fact, many conservatives and pundits at Fox News passionately espoused the idea that politicizing events and undermining the President during wartime was unpatriotic and dangerous. But that was before Obama was in office and they were the ones doing the politicizing and undermining. Or maybe they have all forgotten that it is still wartime.

When Bush was president Fox News told us that Americans who criticize the President in wartime were a “bunch of traitors” should be put in detention camps or hung for sedition. Trent Lott, (R-Mississippi) once accused Tom Daschle (D-South Dakota) of trying to "divide the country." Lott ranted, "How dare Senator Daschle criticize President Bush while we are fighting our war on terrorism?"

Well aren’t we still fighting a war on terror? Aren’t troops still in Iraq and Afghanistan?

In 2007 Bill O’Reilly said, “There is no question the far left lives to hate the president.” But from the election of 2008 to this very moment you could say the same thing about Fox News and Obama. Fox News is essentially running a non-stop scripted Obama attack ad. I am personally in favor of an educated and informed public capable of voicing disagreement with the leadership, but I find the “flip-flop” Fox and the rest of the neo-cons have pulled on the issue of “patriotic Presidential critique” a little hard to stomach.

Note: In fairness to Chris Wallace, who is possibly the only serious journalist on Fox, there does not seem to be 100% compliance with the 24-7 scripted Obama attack ad. Here he is calling out the three hosts of Fox and Friends to task for their one-sided misrepresentation of Obama.

Jon Stewart also highlighted the hypocrisy of Fox News, comparing the way they treated Bush and the way the have treated Obama.
