So how much are we, the taxpayers, paying for Barry's DNC fundraising trips?

Is he going to be fundraising on our dime every week up till 2012?

"Yeah, right .. fudge on all of 'em!"

President Barack Obama was in town tonight for a pair of Democratic fundraisers in Chicago where organizers hope to raise more than $2 million.

The president turned a big fundraiser at a downtown hotel into a bit of a pep rally for his effort to change the nation's health care system.

"I'm from Chicago. I don't break," he said, as the room erupted in cheers. "I've got great health insurance . . . I've got a doctor who follows me everywhere."

As Obama headed back to Air Force One, the motorcade took a surprise detour and pulled onto the tree-lined street of his Kenwood home on the South Side.

As the president spent a little time inside, a few neighbors stood on their porches and sidewalks to watch.

I don’t think any president should be able to take trips to campaign for others. Do presidents do any real work? It seems to me that all they do is travel, play golf, schmooz with other leaders, and take vacations.

If I had known it was that easy, I would have tried for the job myself!
