Why did Obama say that the Senate's banking committee is his committee?

Question

At today’s press conference, Barack Obama said that the U.S. Senate’s banking committee is his committee, which will surely come as a surprise to the chairman of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs committee, Christopher Dodd, an Obama sycophant.

Not only is the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs not HIS committee, Barack Obama is not even a member of the committee: http://banking.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Information.Membership

Answer 1

Speaking as  Senator....

Answer 2

Maybe that means Senator Dodd is actually a very well designed sock puppet controlled by Mr. Obama, and it really is his committee.

Answer 3

Because no money = no brownie points. America was built on the dollar. The dollar is God and God is just a concept that sells well

Answer 4

Because none of his worshipers ever question anything he says.  They take his word as gospel, that is why they adore him, they don't really care what he says, just the way he says it and the way he looks.

Answer 5

because most political decisions in U.S. now (constitutionally) rest with the president.

Answer 6

Haven't you heard, since the Obamessiah is omnipotent he can be whatever he wants.  Vote Obama.  Communism will work this time.

Answer 7

Nothing.

Answer 8

One of many many many lies.

He still thinks he was right in opposing the surge that has reduced our casualties and stabilized Iraq.

Who would vote for this buffoon?

Answer 9

antichrist. jk lol *flinch*

Well it certainly sounds creepy to me! I'm glad you made this known. People should be informed of what they're dealing with. he also believes in abortion. (I'm due to have a baby soon, so yeah)

Answer 10

He was wrong - he had a hand in getting the ball rolling, so to speak - but he wasn't on the actually committee.

Why he said it......generalizing to make a point, a gaffe - whatever you want to call it!

Answer 11

A ton of Obama's campaign money was laundered through the banking committee via the mid-east. They have a 'special' relationship.

Answer 12

I agree, obama is a bad person.  He could say that he wants to go to war in Iraq for the rest of his life,  and people will still love him just as much.  He could say he is the devil and people will still love him the same.  They just do, but I don't see anything for me to like about him.  I honestly hate all of them.  They are all bad people.
