Yesterday, the Senate Democrats pushed for an overnight debate on a proposed timetable for troop withdrawal from Iraq.

Just out of curiosity, why wasn't Barack Obama present? Where was he during this important debate?

Obama has been a major opponent of the military operations in Iraq, yet when his party needed his vote, and his voice, on this issue, he was conspicuously absent.

Apparently, he was too busy campaigning at a Planned Parenthood conference (http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post_group/ObamaHQ/CtN5) to perform the job the people of Illinois elected him to do.
