WASHINGTON — At 5 a.m. Tuesday, with 618 days left in office, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle will announce that the Obama library, museum and presidential center will be in Chicago.

Just after sunrise in Chicago, a video with the first couple will be released, and for the first time, the Obamas in their own words will comment on their post-presidential legacy projects.

At noon, Martin Nesbitt, the Obama friend who is chairman of the Chicago-based Barack Obama Foundation, and Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who was Obama’s first chief of staff, will hold a press conference at the Gary Comer Youth Center, 7200 S. Ingleside, to discuss the successful University of Chicago bid.

Oh, Joy!

And racial strife will finally end.

The city will be healed. Just by their presence.

Ain't it a beautiful thing?

The biggest part of the Obama Library will be the Fiction Section.With the Horror section coming in at number 2.

I’m sure people from Chicago won’t be going to do research there.Since their education system is so terrible.

I hope the Wookie has always felt comfortable with libraries at least (given her remarks about museums last week).

They ought to rethink this. There are a lot of vacant buildings in Detroit. “Motor City” is a much better example of the kind of worker’s paradise that Obama and his union buddies are turning thriving American cities into.

why do we need the press to interview a person we all know is a scumbag... there is no news there
hillary belong behind bars.....nowhere near the white house
for her to even consider running is a mockery
benghazi is not finished and e-mailgate has just begun
standby for some fun watching hillary get caught up in lies and crimes that may put her in jail, unless obumbler and her have already cut a pardon deal.... yeah on his last day “i pardon hillary and everyone else in my administration from any actual or future revealed criminal behavior”... is that legal probably not but what is leagal in this administration.... a mockery of the Constitution.

Well now we know why the original "Moo and Oink Butchers" at 72nd and Sony Island (quite near by) had to close.



Still, not far away at 8249 S. Cottage Grove is a Leon's Barbeque. The White Castle is closer still. And ALL of it is closer than the U of Chicago's actual campus, which is pretty much done by 61st Street.

Thank goodness it will LIE in Chicago. I can’t think of a more appropriate location.
