President Barack Obama's fundraising blitz amid crisis after crisis around the world shows he's no longer interested in leadership, according to Matt Lewis, senior contributor for The Daily Caller and contributing editor for The Week.

"I'm not one of those conservatives who just reflexively attack Obama, but you have to say, especially about a week ago, it seemed like the world was collapsing,'' Lewis said Friday on "The Steve Malzberg Show'' on Newsmax TV.

"You had the situation in Gaza, you had Russian separatists shooting down a plane in Ukraine, passenger plane, you had Christians in Mosul being relocated, you had this border crisis down in Texas, and President Obama really going out of his way to not addressing any of it.

"He was in Texas and refused to go to the border and went to fundraisers in Texas. [He] went out to get barbecue and cheeseburgers in Delaware. So there was a real sharp dichotomy between the crises in the world and President Obama's behavior.''
