CHICAGO — President Obama is back in his adopted hometown tonight for three campaign fundraisers and an overnight stay (sans family) in his private home on the city’s South Side.
“It’s good to be back home. I’m sleeping in my bed tonight. I’m going to go to my kitchen and might cook something. Putter in my backyard,” Obama joked before a crowd of 350 donors at the Chicago Cultural Center. “The White House is nice, but I’m just leasing.”
Obama said he wants to extend that lease for another four years, and argued that voters in November will need to weigh a stark choice before giving him the opportunity.
“The choice in this election will be between a vision that didn’t work in 2000-2008. Didn’t work before the Great Depression. The Gilded Age. We’ve seen this philosophy before. But usually we’ve come to our senses. We see that’s not how democracy is built.”
“That’s the vision we’re going to have to confront and address in this election,” he said. “The good news is when you cut through the noise and just ask people, most people agree with us.”
Obama acknowledged, as he did earlier in the day, that today’s jobs report left much to be desired, attributing the lackluster numbers to the European debt crisis.
“We saw that in today’s job report. A lot of that is attributed to Europe, the cloud coming over the Atlantic. The world economy has been weakened by it, but beyond that we still know too many friends, family out of work. Too many people struggling to pay bills,” he said.

(”They’re not for you, little girl, they’re much too beautiful for that.”) How much more disgusting can you get? Somehow it just seems to fit here.
yep, smoking coke and smoking pole..
Is he planning a quick trip to Gurnee in a limo, or a down-low visit to his old church chums?
Go home to your real home, Kenya, and stay there.
Isn’t this the first time he’s been there since the election? Wonder who’s tucking him in tonight.
Hope he doesn’t spend much time cleaning it up. I’m not sure it’s his house anymore...seems there’s talk that a skip tracer found out that a Cook County Circuit Judge-(initials: JS) and Bath-House Barry’s accountant own the house.
It has 6 or 7 “PIN” numbers when it should only have 1. (Northern Trust Company)
I heard he was there to check whether the furnace needed a new thingamajig.
....do Larry Sinclair and then finish up with a snout full from Reggie Love.
Awesome!! It probably does, but what??
Been kinda cold here in Ohio today, how dfifferent can it be in Illinois?
Can the guy sound any more gay?
Myself and every other SOB I know *work* in our backyards.

IMO, this is Obama’s “malaise” speech. Things will get better when Americans buy more “thingamajigs.” LMAO!
Yo Kenyan! You be 16 trillion dollars behind in your rent!
Does the jerk ever work. Not only is he incompetent but he is the laziest President in our history.
Well the South side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
of a man named Leroy Brown.
Let’s just make sure he can go back home and putter, cook and sleep in his own bed PERMANENTLY come November.
Have his sons been hanging out at the house?
I was thinking the same thing. Bush would go home often when he was in the White House. Strange that one wouldn’t go home once in a while.
The Clinton’s went home, but then again I don’t think they owned one at the time.
“I’m going to go to my kitchen and might cook something.”
I suggest that four year old ground beef down in the meat tray. Yummy.
