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 citys South Side.
Its good to be back home. Im sleeping in my bed tonight. Im 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 Im 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 didnt work in 2000-2008. Didnt work before the Great Depression. The Gilded Age. Weve seen this philosophy before. But usually weve come to our senses. We see thats not how democracy is built.
Thats the vision were 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 todays jobs report left much to be desired, attributing the lackluster numbers to the European debt crisis.
We saw that in todays 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.

Putter in Tony Rezco’s backyard. With the SS and Chicago Police providing a ring of steel around him, he and his neighbors will be the only people on the South Side safe from gang gunfire tonight. Last weekend the South Side had ten killed and thirty wounded.
LMAO Yeah I was wondering what could be in the house worth cooking too.
Where was the wide load? Out flying around in our plane I guess.
He couldn’t look more GAY than that pic......unless it’s where he’s riding his bike.

Obama warns of a return to the policies of 2000-2008.
