McCain slams Obama for missing a vote he also missed.

Following Iran’s missile tests this week, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) slammed Sen. Barack Obama’s (D-IL) position on the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, declaring, “This is the same organization that I voted to condemn as a terrorist organization when an amendment was on the floor of the United States Senate. Senator Obama refused to vote.”

The problem with the critique? McCain also missed that vote on the Kyl-Lieberman amendment on September 26, 2007. Records show that Obama was in New Hampshire and McCain was in New York instead of being in the Senate chamber for the vote in question.

Indeed, McCain — the most absent Senator — has missed more than 60 percent of the votes in the 110th Congress.

1. K&R!

I really think his age is starting to show - lots of short term memory loss. Maybe he should stick to a script.

3. He's either a liar or forgetful. Probably both, but in this case, I vote liar--

after all, he is trying to take credit for the Webb/Hagel GI Bill, which he opposed right up until he didn't vote for it. He probably thinks no one pays attention to any of his Senate activities--or NON-activities.

7. McCain is a real asshole. There's no excuse for this. He can

certainly have his staff pull up his full voting record. We need to make sure he's not given any more passes on this kind of stuff.

I think he's deliberately lying and using the media's reluctance to challenge him (because he's old, you know) to his benefit.

9. He forgets to mention that Obama said he would vote AGAINST it
