According to the Washington Post’s votes database, McCain has “missed 367 votes (61.4%) during the current Congress.” In fact, CQ reports today that McCain hasn’t voted in the Senate since April 8. Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) last voted on June 4.

Trolls, any thoughts? Care to jump in here and tell us about how Obama is the most lazy Senator or some such bs? Anything?
Oh, and when McCain did vote, ie. during 2007, 95% of the time it was in lockstep with GWB.
Suck on that trolls, your feeble and tragic ideology and party is falling apart before your very eyes. Popcorn at the ready.
June 25th, 2008 at 12:54 pmConsidering his record, do we really want him to be voting in the Senate?
And if Obama is not going to lead, and suppoort Dodd’s & Feingold’s filibuster of FISA, he needn’t show up again, either.
June 25th, 2008 at 12:57 pmWTF difference does it make? He wouldn’t have got it right or remembered anyway. We would be a lot better off if every one of the Rethug Senators could make the same claim. Who need the bastards?

June 25th, 2008 at 12:59 pmIsn’t it cute when 2 year olds talk? They have such trouble pronouncing people’s names, even ones that have a lot of /b/ and /m/ sounds (two of the developmentally easier ones) in them.

If you cannot rufe the argument, try and divert the attention. The last refuge of the lost and scared.
Poor Lock_Box seems to prove that his failure of a candidate is going to lose, and lose badly. Don’t worry, LB, Pres. Obama will bring about the change for which Americans are searching! ;-)
June 25th, 2008 at 1:04 pmThank you rogerse, you made my point for me. The talking point I’ve heard about Obama being a lazy Senator who never votes on anything has now been shot to hell. They are both on the campaign trail, so missing votes (within reason) is perfectly legitimate, they can’t be in two places at once they are human.
McCain: Obama: (your numbers)
missed 367 votes missed 259 votes
(61.4%) (43.3%)
during current Congress during current Congress
So I guess that means that Obama has a better attendance record vote-wise than McCain does, doesn’t it. Or am I wrong?
June 25th, 2008 at 1:05 pmoops sorry, that was lock box. You’re all the same anyway, I get you mixed up.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:06 pmWe’ve been told for years that “being president is hard work” so I guess we need to realize that running for president is “hard work”, too.
Let’s face it, having McCain there to vote only adds one more to the “whatever Bush wants” column.
PEACE
June 25th, 2008 at 1:08 pmBy the way, speaking of Obama vs. McCain there, LB, what are your thoughts on the McCain campaign’s apparent election financing fraud, the huge number of lobbyists on his campaign staff vs. Obama’s actually publicly financed campaign (i.e. via small individual donations) and his immediate policy once he won the nom of cutting out all PAC and Lobbyist money from the Democratic party?
Any thoughts?
June 25th, 2008 at 1:09 pmJohn McCain is such a maverick, he doesn’t even vote! What an independent spirit!
June 25th, 2008 at 1:10 pmDon’t kid yourself - OBama has missed a shitload of votes too

This may take a few minutes. lock-box is checking his latest list of RNC talking points to see if he has any thoughts.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:13 pmhey phred42, try to keep up with the class ok? We’ve already established that Obama has missed a bunch of votes as well. He’s also running for president which takes up a lot of his time, same goes for McCain. Obama is close to half, McCain is close to 2/3s, and that is the point, McCain has missed more. End of story.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:15 pmrogerse Says:
We still prefer anyone but a republican….even if you could come up with something it wouldn’t change that. We have seen what the republicans do when they do vote so you might as well get used to not having any representative at all….it’s over for the repubs…..why do you keep scratching and clawing?

_____________________________________
If you’re going to distract with shiny objects, you need to find shinier ones to be effective.
Obama has also missed a lot of votes. As has Hillary Clinton. We expect a lot of missed votes from any Senator who is campaigning to be President.
The point being made here is that McCain’s voting record in the Senate is significantly WORSE than the other Senators who have been running for President. Furthermore, McCain has missed several key votes, while Obama and Clinton have both managed to get back to Washington for votes on critical issues, or votes that were expected to be close.
Perhaps it’s that younger Senators can just move faster?
June 25th, 2008 at 1:17 pmGood, I hope he keeps it this way. We’re a lot better off methinks.

Once again, you post a link along with a pasted excerpt from the link, with no original comment of your own.
First, Obama voting “present” is not the same as not showing up to vote at all, which is the subject of this thread.
Second, this is off-topic, and therefore mere troll-droppings.
Flagged.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:24 pmNot only that, misshusseinmolly, but Obama’s primary campaign lasted three months beyond McCain’s. One might expect that, since running for President takes one away from normal Senate business, Obama would have missed more votes than McCain. Even Senator Clinton shold have missed more.
But no.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:24 pmNo, I believe in keeping them on track. I have learned (back in the 50’s) that republicans won’t do that. I oppose republicans….period.
get used to being the minority opposition party…..the only real use for a republican……time for you to sit down and shut up..isn’t that what repubs told the dems when they came to power?
June 25th, 2008 at 1:28 pmIt’s funny that the Neocons blasted Obama for being “prosumptious” for his mock presedential seal; however they make no mention of McCain’s Presidential postering (vising flooded Iowa, visits to Iraq, etc.)which undoubtedly contribute to his lack of voting (doing his job).
June 25th, 2008 at 1:30 pmmocha:
Speaking of Iowa, it’s funny they never mention that the elected officials in those flooded areas asked McCain NOT to come during the flood (Obama went before it hit in Illinois) because of the security headaches a high profile visit like that imposes upon an already stressed and stretched police force. He went anyway.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:31 pmliberal traitor -
exactly…
June 25th, 2008 at 1:32 pmroger,
June 25th, 2008 at 1:33 pmDon’t try to pretend to be an expert on something you know nothing about. Voting present is a strategic move, and is usually done when your party has enough votes to pass a bill, but there is something in the bill you don’t like. It is a little protest against your own party, without actually killing a bill you support overall.
Considering that McCain had locked up his nomination months before Obama, makes his voting record even worse
June 25th, 2008 at 1:34 pmGuess you don’t realize what a fool you are making yourself look like. I fear that you actually think you have a point. Sad, just sad.

OK, I was wondering what McCain was doing, since he wrapped up the GOP nomination months ago, and didn’t even have anyone to run against.
So, he was too busy posturing as President to act as Senator.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:38 pmI bet if the Kucinich impeachment articles were successful in the House - and started the trial in the Senate - McCain would be there!
Oh, wait, Pelosi is keeping it buried in the House. Sorry.

Any doubt at all?
June 25th, 2008 at 1:46 pmWell, that would imply that he says things because it is a personal political move…..oh yeah….he does.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:48 pmSince Dubya has been absent all of his ‘presidency’, maybe McDepends is just practicing up for following in his hero’s footsteps.

Just a friendly suggestion. No need to thank me.

Maybe McCan’t would have voted “present” but just couldn’t remember that he was.
After November nobody tell McCant that the race is over. Let him keep campaigning and avoiding votes indefinitely.
Maybe McCant can bring crybaby Boehner and some of his other obstructionist loser cohorts on the campaign trail so the grown ups could get something constructive done on the Hill.
June 25th, 2008 at 2:01 pmBetter McSame campaign slogan-
Get off my lawn, or I’ll bomb Iran.
rogered up the arse is around 14 years old, I would guess. I didn’t know the RNC could hire kids that young to disrupt blogs, not that he does a good job at it.
His typing and language skills makes it hard to understand what RNC talking point he is trying to make.
And block_head is just a punk, a stupid one at that.
June 25th, 2008 at 2:02 pmuh, backup. mccain hasn’t voted since the beginning of april on anything……his primary ended and he still hasn’t voted. Obama voted this month…..big difference and it isn’t easy for the repubs to explain and so they want to say….they are all the same…..they are not.
June 25th, 2008 at 2:02 pmI think that is a distinct possibility.

That’s OK — if you ever made such an “admission”, nobody would believe it anyway. In order to be “indoctrinated” by any professor of any kind, you generally have to go to college.

But, dear boy, you must first graduate from high school, then onto college. To get into college, you need to be tested and have the grades necessary for the school to accept your enrollment. Since it appears you never graduated high school, and you certainly couldn’t ‘test’ your way into college - your statement seems silly. I do hope you can at least get your GED; that will get you a job a Walmart - maybe as a greeter.
Not to be rude, but you have again, talked yourself into a corner. I’m just trying to help you out.

See, let me explain it to you…
If by posting the KKKarl Rove quote I was showing that I “value” his opinion, this would Imply that I, like Mr. Rove, believe that too much education is a bad thing because well-educated people tend to vote Democratic.
See what I mean?
Just to clear up any confusion, I don’t agree with that. I think more education is a good thing.
I was posting the quote as an example of a common belief among the Right.
I think most people here would get that from the “context” of my post, but I understand how you would miss it.
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Now, I think there are some popsicles still left in the break room fridge…
June 25th, 2008 at 2:42 pmthe tenure system is there to protect free thought from goose-stepping idiots. I can see why you would be against it, lockjaw.

What political leaning were you before College?
did you have a preference? or did you really not care that much?
I shouldn’t bother with a reply. But, my answer will once again show your assumptions to be ridiculous.
My family was very political. My parents discusses politics all the time. He was a Nixon Republican and she was a Kennedy Democrat. I greatly admired Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King and Eugene McCarthy, so I became a liberal. In 1976, the first presidential election in which I was old enough to vote, I cast a ballot for Eugene McCarthy, who ran as an independent. That fall, I was a freshman in college, and the “quacked out professors” hardly had time to “indoctrinate me”. In 1980, I voted for former Republican John Anderson, who also ran as an independent. So, you can see the “quacked out professors” did not make me more liberal. In fact, in the 80’s, I was foolish enough to vote Libertarian, until I finally began to understand the dark side of libertarianism.
So, you can see that you premise is wrong, at least in my case.
Now go spew you anti-education somewhere else, dumbass.

June 25th, 2008 at 5:34 pmMcCain is missing votes to go get the votes of people who were members of the “Lollipop Guild”. Mashed veggies and tasty puddings with “like-minded” folk are enough reason for Johnnie ToughTalk to ignore his Constitutional Duty, to you know…vote on policies that shape our nation.
So as president, will someone sign his name using a rubber stamp when he’s taking a seven-hour nap?
June 25th, 2008 at 7:44 pmkeep in mind that many of the votes take place in the later part of the afternoon….way past grampy mccains bedtime

Yes, probably the same person who does that for Bush now.
June 26th, 2008 at 8:15 amI thought Bush didn’t sign his name because he got confused with the placement of E and O in his first name. That and he wants to use his favorite Crayola to sign it…and be allowed to color outside of that “pesky black line, because I have a creative side”.
