Obama on being chairman of Senate subcommittee

Furthermore, the NATO-led ISAF in Afghanistan is one of the best and most diverse coalition forces established and certainly better, and more effective, than the "coalition" in Iraq. As of June 2008, there are about 53,700 ISAF troops in Afghan representing 37 countries (26 from NATO). And the US makes up about 24,000 of that number. This coalition shows the world is willing to fight an honorable war. Not a war based on a lie, such as the one in neighboring Iraq...

It's amazing how many ppl r fooled by this and many other videos & statements about this very issue. It is true that Obama is the chairman and that he hasn't held any meetings about Afghanistan. However, the problem is that his subcommittee DOES NOT have oversight of Afghanistan! He is the chrmn of the Subcommittee on EUROPEAN relations w/ oversight of NATO. This subcommittee does not have primary, secondary, or teritary jurisdiction directly connected to Afghanistan except NATO. Factcheck plz!

i can't believe obama has gotten this far. and all on pure unadulterated hype. hey, i have no experience either so you know i'm not a washington insider. vote for me!

Hypocrisy!! Obama has gotten off easy so far.

Obama scares me because I doubt he has any convictions of his own. The dude really is an empty suit.

he's an empty suit whose entire campaign is one big GAP ad.

That logic makes no sense what-so-ever. Why would it ruin her chance against Obama? Is it because she and Bill makes more money than Obama and Michelle? If Obama can loan his compaign 5 Mill I would wonder why because he is NOT worth between 10 mil and 50 mil. Not because I can not see his tax form.

Actually they are talking about the txt from a year ago. The correct answer is "she is not required to".  Obama just release his and challanged her to do the same and of course the OB supporters started "speculating" when she refused.

What is with you and this Tax return thing? Did Obama's compain put you in charge of finding out her taxes? I don't know why she has not released her taxes. I also don't know if she has gone to the bathroom in the last hour.

Actually, the answer is 41 to 15 during their first 2 years. You want to try again?
