Question

Is it true that Obama was only in congress for 146 days?

Answer 1

I think it was 148 days...............sigh

Answer 2

I don't think so.

Unless you're counting weekends and other days he wasn't actually there?

Answer 3

yep its true.. and before that he was (dont quote me on the exact name of the position, i dont remember) a "community advisor" or something.

whatever it was, he was ineffectual.

Answer 4

Yes, that is true.

It is offset by the 12000 days that he's been a racist.  The roots of it are traced to his "stopped advertising my mothers race" decision.

Answer 5

So what if he was??  I would rather have someone who's not a career congress person, they get stale, old and worthless.......wait isn't that John McCain??????????

Answer 6

yeah then he announced he was running to be president

Answer 7

Yep! We've got a war veteran, POW victim, and 26-year member of the senate vs. a community organizer and a member of the senate for 146 days.

Answer 8

Senator Obama has only been a member of the Senate not the House of Representatives.

Answer 9

if you count fridays and weekends. and the 2007 august recess.
