Mcain has worse Afghanistan hearing record than obama
The McCain campaign criticism of Sen.
Barack Obama's hearing record on Capitol Hill led us to put the shoe on the other foot.
It turns out that presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain has attended even fewer Afghanistan-
related Senate hearings over the past two years than Obama's one. Which is a nice way of saying, McCain, R-
Ariz., the top Republican on the Senate Armed Service Committee, has attended zero of his committee's six
hearings on Afghanistan over the last two years.
Meanwhile, Obama attended the full Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Afghanistan in March
2007, although he used the opportunity to ask Gen. James L. Jones, then the commander of NATO, about
Pakistan.

whenever you hear someone from the McCain campaign accusing Obama or any Democrat of anything wrong, search on that same topic and McCain's name or whomever the Republican making the accusation is.
Most of the time, you will find that is THEIR sin. check it out. I'm not kidding.
I think it is the old "offense is the best defense" strategy with a special Rovian twist of the bold-faced lie added in.
