That's what whores do, it's all about money and doing whatever they have to in order to get it, shameless, diabolical political whore.

There's a big difference between not attending a meeting as one of many invitees and not ever holding a single meeting as the chairman.

I think we'll get a lot of these as time goes on. There had to be a reason Hillary didn't attack him on these issues earlier, and I don't think it was common courtesy. It had to be because she didn't want to get smeared in the process.

It's really not surprising. She tends to try to smear people on the vary things she herself is guilty of.

Hey, look at the picture of Hillary on this post. It looks like Huffpo has darkened it quite a bit. What ar they up to? Are they trying to make Hillary look ominous and evil?

As an earlier commentator pointed out, HRC is a member of Armed Services, not the chairperson; BHO is chair of the subcommittee in charge of NATO/Afghanistan oversight. He's the one in charge and if he doesn't have time for the responsibilities of the position, he should resign and let another member be chairperson.

I'd also like to add that Senator Clinton is chairperson of the Subcommittee on Superfund and Environmental Health, where, as Joe Wilson recently pointed out , she has convened extensive hearings.

Whaaaaaa????!!! This cannot be!

Now, Hillary will have to figure out a way to blame this on Obama.

Or the biased media.

Of course she skipped the hearing, she's the candidate of "expereince" not "judgement".

Sheesh - aren't you guys listening to the campaign at ALL?

The MSM won't talk about this though because they're afraid of being accused of bias against Clinton.

oops! it must have slipped her mind, she was too busy campaigning to get McCain elected at the time.

She skipped the FISA vote as well and she was right there in DC. Guess she didn't want to upset the GOP.

Does Hillary Clinton not owe the public some honesty. She should freely admit that she still believes in the Iraq war like McCain, she still believes with Joe Lieberman that we should bomb Iran, she has no compassion for womaen and children and supports more cluster bombs, she is ready to accept outright racists in her campaign, she is willing to send out emails saying Obama is a muslim, she is more than willing to scare ppoor uneducated older women into submission, she is willing to say that her and McCain only are worthy due to their experience but she is unwilling to make her income tax returns public.

The key difference: Clinton is a member of her committee ... Obama is a Chair of his committee. She has actually done work on the Armed Services Committee where as Obama has not on his. What she was pointing out was that he jumped on as chair at the start of his campaign for additional resume material and has not done anything yet with the position. Obviously she will try to spin it to get some extra political mileage but the fact is that he really hasn't acted as chair on the committee and should not be using it as credentials.

Attack now apologize latter, if necessary. HRC counts on the American public having a very short attention span.

Clinton doesn't care whether the accusations she hurls are accurate, fair or will come back to smack her in the back of her head. She's desperate, so anything that will help her survive to fight another is okay with her. More of the same old politics. And she wonders why Obama supporters express reservations about voting for her in the general election if she should become the nominee.
