TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- Two days after McCain formally accepted the nomination of his party, rival Obama accused his opponent of falsely portraying himself as a change agent despite championing the party agenda of the ruling GOP for the last eight years and tapping for the vice presidency Gov. Sarah Palin, who Obama says has taken earmarks “when it’s convenient."
“Don’t be fooled,” a particularly punchy Obama told a crowd this morning at a town hall meeting in Terre Haute, Ind. “These are the folks who have been in charge. John McCain’s party, with the help of John McCain, has been in charge.”
Criticizing new VP candidate Sarah Palin, Obama said she poses as an anti-big-spending maverick despite having pulled in pork-barrel projects into her home state. Calling Palin “a skillful politician,” Obama charged the Alaska governor with taking earmarks “when it is convenient” but decrying them now that she is headlining McCain’s agenda.
“Words mean something!” Obama said of Palin's reputation as an anti-earmark champion. “You can’t just make stuff up.”
McCain-Palin spokesman Tucker Bounds responded to Obama’s criticism of the Alaksa governor by alleging that Obama has a penchant for pork himself.

We mock what we don’t understand....
Hot air....There’s a bad temper in there...It’s coming out..

Actually, Dumbo, YOUR party has been in charge of both houses of Congress for the past two years.

And in Colorado Springs McCain/Palin's crowd is around 10,000?
Interesting!
Another day, another Obama “strategy”. I wonder what they are going to try tomorrow?
Any “leader” or “community organizer” from Chicago should have “C” branded into their foreheads and forbidden to hold any public office of trust...
hey Zerobama - there’s two kinds of change - good and bad. What you’re proposing is the WORST kind of bad change - SOCIALISM.
Hey Obama, you should put some LIPSTICK on that...
Actually....
....with the help of RINOs, the RATS have controlled the house and senate for a VERY LONG TIME.
The RINO in the WH has assisted them with their agenda. (education, Rx drug program, failure to really push social security reform, illegal immigrant amnesty, etc) The RINO candidate will continue that aid. So you see Obama, the problem is the overabundance of RAT programs and policies, not the absence of them.
The VP candidate is the change we have been looking for. Change will be in the wings waiting for an opportunity in 4 or 8 years. It's the best we can do at the present time.
“Words mean something!” Obama said ....”
What did “G-D damn America” mean to you? What did the rest of the racist hate you listened to for over 20 years mean to you, boy.
One thing you better look up, Obama, is the meaning behind the words, “Don’t Tread on Me”.
This POS will never be my president.
America First........ Obama last.
Particularly punchy??
The man gave the most boring stumbling speech possible.
