Is this the same committee Obama never held a hearing with ON ANYTHING.

What an opportunistic ***.

I guess he's trying to squeeze one in between campaign stops so at the next debate, he can say he did have a meeting while serving on this committee. Never too late to pad your resume...and his does need it.

Imay and mpwdc, totally disagree with you, let us not try to tire down a champion a winner like Obama.You are talking about Obama like Hill the Bosnian General or McCain the governor of Bagdad. God bless America and God bless Obama. OBAMA08

What are you guys
going to do when
Obama is President?

Where will the hate go?

I find Obama insufferable. And the Freeman story? The poster is absolutely correct. Hillary would have been crucified (speaking of "God") if she'd said anything like that. Bloggers would shake that story like a bone every chance they had.

And the committee -- isn't that the one Obama has totally ignored? Maybe a reporter could point that out, too.

Imay,liz, WestCoastManager, DCVoter and mpwc, Obama said that we have to lift people up and not to tear them down. Obama will carry out his duties in a very responsible manner better than Hill the Bosnian General and McCain the Governor General of Bagdad. God bless America and God bless Obama. OBAMA08.

The comments from IMAY (or maynot) and his ilk only point out the utter desperation of clintonistas and repugnants. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. I'm guessing he was trying to be funny!

The issue that needs to be front and center is beating John McCain and ensuring that we don't have 100 years in Iraq and "bombbombbomb, bombbomb Iran" in the White House for the next four years.

Obama 2008 -- Yes, WE CAN!!!

Jackt51,
You know, you finally have convinced me. We are so desperate because the Obama campaign is miles ahead and need not worry. As a result, I have to say you guys deserve a little nap. You can wake up in time to get another dose of coolaid, which will be available just short of the finish line.
========================================
Obama doesn't need any more help!
Obama is way ahead!
Obama, the Harvard elite, crack-smoking, bonehead and his arrogant supporters have time to enjoy a nap!
========================================

For those of you eating yourselves up because obama can't be stopped, I guess that since your chief strategist is now an ex, you would have to formulate another strategy, because every petty falsehood you've thrown his path doesn't not seem to have worked! He usually ends up unscathed!
And for Imay, why not come up with an allegation more serious that could show your age as an adult(if you're one). Your comment above has gone a long way to buttress my belief that obama will end up as the elected president come november. NOBODY has been able to come up with any serious allegations against him. He has nothing to hide.
As for electability, he has shown over and over again that he is more electable than any of his remaining opponents. And American people will go on to support him by voting for him and donating to his campaign! GOD BLESS AMERICA. Thank you!

Dew5050,
Your man Obama is just perfect isn't he? He has no serious flaws. He is a Washington outsider. He takes no federal lobbyist money (only paid help). He doesn't have a relationship with Rezko. He doesn't really have a relationship with Wright. He didn't hold a hearing on Afghanistan. He didn't admit he was a bonehead. He didn't admit cocaine use. He is just the perfect politician, never knew that such existed before.
========================================
Obama is the perfect guy in an empty suit!
========================================

Some people will complain about anything Obama does. All of those people post on this web site. God forbid he does the best he can while trying to finish off his (thus far, successful) run for President.

They're starting to sound like little kids! lol unbelievable.

OK, there's a lil bitty part of me that thinks it would be a hoot if Obama actually won the presidency to put the right wing of the Republican party in their place. Then, logic takes over, and I think of the absolute nightmare an Obama presidency would be. Still, it's a wee bit fun to think of all the right wingers staying up late in November watching in utter disbelief. CHUCKLE. Hillary 08. If not Hillary, McCain 08. Giggling at the suffering Obama would cause the Republican nut jobs while cringing at the thought of Pastor Wright anywhere near MY (emphasis MY) white house. Gosh, this is fun!

Good for him No sense of waiting and doing paper work.
Its called Multi-tasking

i can assure you that for the first time i am not voting democrat if obama is the party's nominee. he seems less than a patriot and seems angry at whites. this white, thus, will vote mccain.

The headline should be: After 16 months, Committee chair finally holds a meeting. What a crock! He is using it to pretend like he has been doing something all along.

There's an awful lot of us "if not Hillary then McCain" people out here. This is the reality that doesn't seem to have hit home with a lot of Obama supporters. We'll see, though, won't we?

So let me get this right: there is a foreign policy hearing tomorrow in Congress ,but this article is about how Obama will hold other hearings, because he has no role in the foreign policy hearing. That's it? You guys are so blatantly in the tank. How's this: the other candidates are urinating tomorrow but Obama is doing #2...Details at 11....

The real bore is Obama. Unfortunately, he's also a "distraction" from any real foreign policy. The lightweight committee nominations he'll chair tomorrow should be as close to a nomination as he can get. If, however, he does manage to receive the nod after the coming primaries, he will lose handily to McCain. He is a zero, just like the number of sub-committee meetings he's held since January 2007.

Sure kitty...its hit home. It's quite apparent we have a lot of whining children out here because hillary doesn't know how to run a campaign.

Barack Obama is running for President, NOT his pastor.
