Where were the four democrats on Iraq vote day? ABSENT

So where were Clinton, Dodd, Obama, and Biden? Aren't they all still Senators, paid by the people of the United States of America? I noticed John McCain made it to debate about the funding for the Iraq War, but neither one of the four Democratic Senators bothered to show and stop the funding. I thought that was one of their main points - get out of Iraq.

I can't believe the American people pay these Senators to campaign instead of vote on important bills. They should be representing their constituency and stop blathering about getting troops out of Iraq and finally vote to make it happen. I guess the issue isn't that important, or they would have been in the Senate to debate and vote on the bill instead of selfishly trying to gain votes.
