I found this interesting. John McCain missed 738 of 4104 roll call votes (18%) since Feb 4, 1993. That is more than all others. The graph below shows the percent of roll call votes John McCain was absent for during the member’s time in Congress. The absentee rate is in red. The two black dotted lines provide a context for understanding the significance of the absentee rate. The lower dotted line shows the median value for all Members of Congress in that time period. The upper dotted line shows the 90th percentile. A Member who approaches the upper dotted line is in the worst 10 percent of Congress.

It is more than all others? What's your parameter? All other senators since 1993 that have run for president twice? Notice those two big peaks correspond with his presidential races? Would you say that the % of missed votes during your career would be a fair gauge, regardless of how long you served? What is Obama's % of missed votes while being senator? Don't bother, I will tell you. He has missed 306 of 1287 votes,(24%) as a first time senator. Somebody told me he was running for president as well.
ok so far.... gee....sounds bad for that ol'bastid mccain wait a minute.....are you talking about the Messiah?????????? ......hmmmmm.......if 18% puts you in the worst 10% i wonder what bracket 24% missed votes puts you in?????????? i'm sure the democratic national committee will be calling you for more ideas rex..........
HOW TO START EACH DAY WITH A POSITIVE OUTLOOK.............. 1. Open a new file in your computer. 2. Name the file "Barack Obama" 3. Send it to the Recycle Bin. 4. Empty the Recycle Bin. 5. Your PC will ask you. 'Do you really want to get rid of Barack Obama?' 6. Firmly Click 'Yes.' 7. Feel better. Tomorrow we'll do Nancy Pelosi
I find it funny everytime I post something about McCain everybody jumps on board thinking I'm supporting Obama. I think both are idiots and those that vote for this crap.
The reason people jump on you is because your posts are so visibly one sided. When you make a post like this, the inference is that Mccain has a terrible record and Obama does not which is clearly not the case. You proclaim one side of an argument but your actions show another. It's truly gotten to the point where I don't even read your posts in the FSA because they're so ridiculous. I see the ostrich and I run for cover.
We think it's funny that you always present one-sided, usually incorrectly skewed information and proclaim that you are just stating facts. Your purpose may be your own little secret but what you do is not.
Did I miss something. Where is my arguement in this thread that was soooo one sided? I simply pointed out McCain's missed votes. If you want to point out Obama's then go the F ahead. And what information did I post that was incorrect?
