Why is Obama criticizing McCain for not being able to multitask?

To my understanding, Obama can't do two things at once either. McCain wants to temporarily put the campaigning on hold, along with the debate, so he can do his job that he was hired to do (as was Obama).



At the same time, Obama continues to campaign, but he's not going back to the senate... so he's not multitasking either. He just wants to talk about the economy, but where is that going to get us if they are not part of the planning?Why is Obama criticizing McCain for not being able to multitask?Did McCain just find out today that the economy is in sh*ts?

If the republicans would have done what's right for the country for the past 8 years, we wouldn't be in this sh*t!



"It's my belief that this is exactly the time when the American people need to hear from the person who, in approximately 40 days, will be responsible for dealing with this mess," Obama said at a news conference in Clearwater, Fla. "It's going to be part of the president's job to deal with more than one thing at once."



Obama 08!|||I saw the comment also on the news

.

And I thought about it for a moment and it does make a lot of sense

.

The president does not have only one thing that is on the days plan of things to do

.

Why doesn't McCain take a couple of hours off on the debate time to attend it

.

And let the public see how he can handle himself in a complex situation of politics

All at the same time

.

Because while a president the president has tons of things always looking for a moment of his time to take care of

.

And if McCain can not do a debate and a seat in the Senate listening to the debating

.

WELL get REAL

.Why is Obama criticizing McCain for not being able to multitask?You are absolutely correct. All Obama wants to do is talk, talk, talk. At least McCain is heading back to Washington to actually DO something.



This shows a lack of basic leadership skills on Obama's part as well as a complete disregard for the taxpayers. This is what Obama thinks of us. We are not even worthy for him to go back to Washington and do HIS JOB.



I haven't always been a big McCain supporter, but during this test, McCain has completely earned my loyalty. He is doing the right thing. ||| McCains putting his "Country First" slogan before putting the actual country first. Its so political Im surprised some Republicans are THAT hard headed, they cant even see past it.



McCains not president, He cant anything except about this crisis (that was caused by Repubes to begin with) and besides, didnt McCain make it a point that Obama would not debate him?



I commend Obama for not only following through with his promise AND being able to give his views and help on other matters.:)Why is Obama criticizing McCain for not being able to multitask?You are 100% correct. WITH ...these people your damned if you do and damned if you don't...........i get a kick out of these Lying mouthed Liberals, yesterday Reede %26amp; Pelose both criticized McCain and said his vote was crucial.............he's going to do the right thing by the people that he currently represents and they are still bitching, never ever ever

witnessed such outright hate and bias as i have in this election.

We as a people have reached a new LOW.............Started by the press who Coronated Obama, and have been in the tank from day One

for him,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Who the hell in there right mind would listen to any of those incompetent morons anyway i know i sure as hell don't.They call themselves Journalist what a

JOKE|||Because it's true.



McCain will not be any where working out the fine print of the $700 billion bailout.



So he's lying as to why he's canceling his debate. Read the real reasons below:



http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/24鈥?/a>|||Because as President you need to be able to multitask, how hard is it to understand. It is obvious this is a ploy by the McCain campaign to delay the fact that McCain is running scared and doesn't want to debate Obama or isn't prepared enough to debate...|||You need to get your facts straight. Obama has met with economic leaders, including Hank Paulson, on a near daily basis and has offered an economic plan that most economists agree with.



Meanwhile, John McCain is trying to go into hiding.|||It is just a political attack. Maybe Obama should put the American citizens first. I think it is very un-Presidential of Obama to be more concerned with a debate that can easily be postponed than a financial crisis.|||Maybe because multi-tasking is a major part of a presidents every day life. If McCain isn't able to do that, for whatever reason, he isn't qualified to be president.|||He doesn't have to physically be there to be part of the talks, it's called video conferencing. McWar is just dodging the campaign cause the tide has really turned against him.|||One question.



Would you praise Obama if he had done the same thing? Or simply say he was afraid to debate McCain?



I guess you would agree with whatever McCain and his supporters say.

That's called being a sheep.|||nice try



It doesn't require multitasking to participate in a debate that has been scheduled for months. It is one day. The people in Washington DC can plan their plans about the economy without McCain there holding their hands.|||Because he is working like a senator, not as a president.



Obama is always ahead in every move. It was McCan who was saying "Fundamentals of our economy are strong"|||McCain hasn't done the 'job he was hired to do' since April.....he hasn't voted 64% of the time. http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congr鈥?/a>|||If McCain can't stand the heat he needs to get out of the kitchen. He is a big boy. Obama will be our new leader soon, thank goodness!|||He gets flubbed up when

telepromter goes out,

forgot to put hand over

heart when pledging allegiance,

et.|||McCain can't multi-task. That's why he chose Sarah Palin as his VP Candidate.|||Because Sen. McCain is his opponent in the presidential election. That's what they do.|||

I鈥檓 sure McCain will say he is unable to multitask due to his being a Vietnam POW

|||Well I can do 2 things at once but di McCain have a chance to respond?|||Obama has style I wonder if the sex is good between him and his wife? Now there is the real question|||McCain is the one running!!! AND ALL YOU FOLLOWERS OF MCCAIN ARE COWARDS TOO!!!|||they do anything in politics |||I am surprized he even knows the meaning of that would. I didn't think Obama had it in him |||Obama used that nasty ad for his campaign and later proved himself to the world that it was a foolish thing to do. The reason why McCain has not been accustomed to the 21st technological era is due to his war injuries. Does that make him incompetent? Of course not!|||Haha



Looking at Obummer's senate performance, it is safe to say that he cant even do ONE thing at once ;)|||Obama will answer that after his cigarette break.|||Because Obama is a desperate shmuck!



Will he debate his own views Friday?|||Mr OBamba's teleprompter has a timer and that's the only worry he has..|||You hit the nail right on the head. McCain is putting Country first just like he should.
