How much does Barack "GDA" Obama care about issues?

Obama says is not about wearing a flag pin or saluting the National Anthem (?), "it's about issues" he said. Wanna take a look at the way he's been taking care of issues as a senator? http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/members/o000167/votes/missed/

1. he's gonna CHANGE things!! wow. now all i wanna know is what he's gonna change...
2. Apparently not much because he rarely mentions any issues.
3. Umbomba's black
4. Seems about right. He is the candidate of change. Nothing else/
5. Take a look at McCain and Hilary's missed votes. It's tough to Campaign and vote in Washington at the same time.
6. umm i never heard him mention anything but how there needs to be CHANGE. well what is he going to change? thats the real question. and people think the issues he talks about are important. i never heard him talk about any issues.
7. Obama Cares !.....about Africa, Palestine, etc. ---Oh..Did you mean America ? NO
8. man, that is a lot of missed votes. Perhaps some of the change he should do is to show up to work occasionally.
9. Boy do you know how to put a spin on things. Obama never said any of that. He never said GDA nor did he not salute the National Anthem or wouldn't wear the Flag Pin. I like his voting record over that of any Rep's. Rep's have taken this country on the down hill road. No more voting for Rep's until they learn what a Rep's is all about.
10. It is the nature of the beast that a campaign for president is a full time job. If you have a better way for a candidate to camapaign and work miracles with their day job, feel free to share it with the candidates. Mr. Obama is working for the residents of the state of Illinois. If, when he loses this election, they are unhappy with his performance, they will not elect him again. I wouldn't vote for Barry if he were the only candidate. Him missing votes right now is a non issue to me and a waste of time. Frankly, every vote he misses is a plus in my opinion. fs
11. Obama is a Elitist Liberal Sociolist Far Left Plant by the new Owners of the Democrat Party. He refusted to wear a Flag Pin, or salute the American Flag while the National Anthem was being played. His Wife hates America, and they both are connected to the Extreme Liberals, and KnownTerrorists. Now, because of his losses, and bad press, Obama, the changer, had today started to wear an American Flag Pin. This phony will do what ever it takes to win the election. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT HE WILL CHANGE, AND IT APPEARS BY HIS EVASIONS OF SUCH QUESTIONS, THAT HE WILL NEVER ANSWER SUCH QUESTIONS. Obama Lies and attempts to hide the truth about Himself, His Wife, His Friends, and his close associates. But the TRUTH WILL WIN OUT!
12. poor black guy getting all the heat because he happens to be black
13. OK, so he was busy that day. Or maybe he had a sore throat. Or maybe his dog ate his homework. Or maybe... he just doesn't care. I've made-up my mind about Obama, now it's YOUR turn !!! Say "NO": to Osama, to Obama, and to Chelsea's momma... vote McCain !!!
