		<description>I am an independent non-white voter who is BEGGING America to not elect Obama as President.  There are SO MANY reasons if people would just pay attention.  

Wake up America!  He is an arrogant hypocrite who has proven to be one of the best politicians by managing to con people into believing that he represents "change" and that he's different when he is really THE typical politician.  He struts around like he is already President (remember the Seal???  Sure, it was a one time thing- baloney).  He's a wuss who only appears on media outlets that worship the ground he walks on (not brave enough to do a town hall meeting with John McCain).  Obama has demonstrated time and again that he doesn't have the intestinal fortitude to take criticism.  How on earth is he going to handle being President?  He has no experience and seems to "regret" an awful lot of his decisions.  He spends a lot of time criticizing our country, but doesn't offer any real solutions.  

His speech against the Iraq War was made not while in the US Senate, but in the Illinois state Senate, where he did not have the same information as the US Senators who voted on the decision to go to war.  Who knows how he would have voted if given the same information as the US Senate?  Yet, he continues to refer to this speech as an example of his superior judgement.  It's like comparing apples and oranges.  

What about all of his "Present" votes when he didn't even have the testicular fortitude to make a hard decision?

Obama will hand our country over to the illegals, terrorists, and European socialists.  His supporters should check his voting record.  There is not one solid example of bipartisanship in his political history, so what makes people think that he will suddenly become bipartisan and "reach across the aisle?" Oh, because he said he would.  He's already demonstrated over and over again that he's a lying fake....
 
I do not find his speeches "inspiring."  He says a lot of nothing and you never know how soon he'll change his stance after saying it.  Watch his unrehearsed answers and you'll hear a lot of the word "Uhh" in his responses (I counted 14 in a 2-minute clip once).  Take the teleprompter away and there's an empty suit.  I can't listen to him (and his "Uhhs"), his Socialist views, and his mouthy wife for 4 more years.

I could go on, but there's too much to go into.  I can't even watch the TV news anymore because I'd rather not see St. Obama being lauded by the MSM who are so definitely in the tank for him.

Although I'm not thrilled with John McCain as a candidate, he is still a better choice than Obama.  At least you know what you're getting.

PLEASE DON'T ELECT OBAMA.</description>

		<description>Some of you really need to do some research before posting on some topics. And the MSM needs to read up before they go putting these one sided stories out. The committee doesn't make any policy desicions on the war. Where has Demint been in the past 2 years if he was so concerned about this issue? And everything the committee has put for has been struck down by GWB so they can't achieve much with him in office. The republicans thought the could get a dig in because Obama was pressing them about the dire situation in Afghanistan.</description>

		<description>Fox probally won't put this on but here goes. McCain has missed more than 66% , of the votes in this current congress,  including the fact that he did not put in a vote for the GI bill, spoke out strongly against it with Mr. Bush and then in a town hall mtg a few weeks ago tried to take credit for it passing. And Mr. McCain decided to go to a fundraiser instead of voting. Barack has missed 44% and voting on most if not all of the major legislation regardles of the campaign</description>

		<description>So AlaskaAnnie - you're including Biden in with the irresponsible 'committee members' - who don't bother to hold their own committee meetings?  Thanks for pointing that out as well.  It still doesn't provide an excuse for Obama, however, for not doing anything about his OWN responsibility to his OWN committee - sub group or not. 'Personal responsibility' comes to mind - I believe it's his own term, or at least the one that he's been using of late. Don't miss the point due to semantics.  

What this does do, however, is point out that Barack (the 'community organizer') is not the so-called change agent he proclaims himself to be; he is merely a cheap suit that agrees to 'be involved' in everything...and yet does absolutely nothing.  A puppet.  A mouthpiece.

The reality is that Obama is a hollow, same-old-same-old politician who thrives on saying anything and thus lives a life of constant re-positioning... just to attempt to gain votes.

'Real change'.  Yeah, right........</description>

		<description>The fact is that unless holding this meeting will do something for the campaign then he can't be bothered.  Our troops don't matter a bit to him.  Only his campaign matters.  I am sure the little thorn in his side called Afghanistan should not be treated as if it is important.  If more and more of our troops are k illed so be it as long as his campaign survives.  

If this doesn't tell you want kind of president this man will make then all that support him will deserve what they get.  Unfortunately people that know what really is important will get the same bad deal.

		<description>Here you go folks....  It's a shame when the FACTs get in the way of the smears.  Typically mud slinging, round two.

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/07/republicans-wan.html
"Obama came under fire from party rival New York Sen. Hillary Clinton during the primary for ignoring his committee assignment and not chairing any NATO-related hearings since taking the chairmanship in January of 2007, after his presidential run was already in full swing. 

He chaired one hearing in April on nominations.

But has otherwise been engaged with his campaign. 

McCain has a similar problem. He is the ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, but has passed his duties, for the most part, off to Sen. John Warner, R-Va., a former chairman and returned only in April to hear testimony from Gen. Petraeus and Admiral Crocker on the status of the surge strategy. When Petraeus was nominated in May for a promotion, to go from leading the multi-national force in Iraq to leading US Central Command, which oversees Iraq and the entire Middle East, McCain did not return to the Hill for the May 22 hearing. 

UPDATE: Turns out DeMint, the ranking member, didn't attend the one hearing -- the nominations hearing --Obama chaired from his subcommittee on 4/7. He had the committee chairman, Sen. Richard Lugar, enter a statement into the record for him.

DeMint is the very same Senator who drew boos on the Senate floor when he made all his colleagues stay in town last Friday for votes on the Housing and AIDS bills last Friday and then skipped town himself to attend a wedding.
