POLITICO 44

SHAKER HEIGHTS, Ohio - President Obama left the Cleveland area and an afternoon of health care reform events for two Democratic National Committee fundraisers in Chicago, where he struck a defensive and at times defiant tone about his top priority.

After touching down in his home city for the first time in more than five months, Obama first attended a $15,200-a-person dinner at the Lincoln Park home his campaign fundraiser Penny Pritzker, where he took a shot at the media for what he deemed its "lack of sustained focus on the facts" concerning health care reform, which he said "makes it very difficult" for him.

Then he moved on to an event at the Hyatt Regency, where he defiantly told a crowd of about 750 donors, "We are going to pass health care reform in 2009."

And he used the backdrop of the street-fighter politics that define his home city to fire back at his Republican critics – one of whom, Sen. Jim DeMint, he said has told the GOP that defeating health care reform would “break” Obama.

Let me tell you something," Obama said. "I'm from Chicago. I don't break."

The RACIST remarks following the Officer Crowley/Dr Gates confrontation may awaken enough sheeple to realize who 0bama really is and who it is they elected to govern the USofA.

0bama is not Post-Racial, he is a Race-Bait Racial. And he should NEVER have made the remark he did. He got defensive instead of presidential.

Those remarks will overshadow EVERYTHING else that goes on in DC for a long long time.

He is a radical Marxist, Race-Baiting, Community organizer, mob thug.

He will go down as the worst President ever elected.

I wonder why Al Sharpton and Jesse rentthemob Jackson are so quiet.

"he took a shot at the media for what he deemed its "lack of sustained focus on the facts" concerning health care reform, which he said "makes it very difficult" for him."

That's the very thing about media which is the reason he got elected, their LACK of focus on the facts!

It's the LAST thing Obama should want them to do. Perhaps now that he's biting the hand that helped him up, they will start checking into the facts more carefully...

Prove it! You claim you were born in Hawaii. Do you also have a fake BC from Illinois?
