So is the hypocrisy! The collective stupidity of the left is a national shame.

FOX News and (Special Report) continue their migration as a second CNN outlet with their commentary on the obama-McChrystal deal today. FOX was "so impressed" with the obama speech and his favorite son comments about "Stan" as he handed him his exit papers. FOX was so impressed that obama is giving Petreaus what amounts to the title of replacement in chief for Afghanistan. FOX has conveniently forgotten the obma/biden/clinton sharp and near endless criticism of Petreaus and "his surge" in Iraq. Not only obama, but biden and clinton hung an anvil around Pertreaus's neck regarding his plan, view and strategy for winning the war in Iraq back in 2007. Now the WH believes that Petreaus is just wonderful. Wow! And no one in the MSM questions the change in thinking. I guess they would have to admit an error in judgment regarding the successful surge in Iraq. FOX, too "chose to overlook" that 2007 commentary, critique and WH history regarding their so-called love of Petreaus. Another hypocritical move which the NYT, WAPO and the networks will fall all over themselves in pontificating the one's new magnificence. I would expect obama to be compared to Truman and Lincoln for his skillful handling of "a conflicted general". Surely, this represents an opportunity for Michael Moore and his film crew.

Another nail in Big Media's coffin. Just proves again never say ANYTHING within 100 feet of a reporter. Let them talk to the PR hack who gives them caned press releases. Or if you are president start your own new agency.

Yup, the libs are all excited about a guy they called "General Betrayus" Now they'll call him, "General Please Save Us!"

All we can do is shake our head and laugh at the hypocrisy of the hard left these day, hoping the American people wake up in November and kick the bums out. We have exactly what the left elected - the bafoonery, unprofessionalism and outright managerial incompetence is stunning. Team Obama is displaying the same kind of amateurish management of government we saw from a distance with the former Soviet Union. Pretty soon they'll be painting the grass green to show how wonderful their socialist paradise is working when the Czars visit town.
