ATLANTA (AP) — President Barack Obama is pledging to be an "insourcing" leader who will bring jobs that have moved overseas back to the U.S.

The president was building upon his campaign's recent attacks on Republican rival Mitt Romney's business record. The Obama team says the private equity firm Romney formerly ran invested in companies that sent jobs to China and India.

Obama says the American people need a president in the White House who will bring jobs back to the U.S., not ship them overseas.

The president spoke at a 500-person fundraising reception, with ticket prices started at $500 per person. He had additional fundraisers planned later Tuesday in Florida.

Question...Why has it taken him 3 years of declaring this for it still not to have happened? It is because he is incompetent.

Proud2BLiberal is proud of what promises he has kept including; outlaws to infiltrate our borders and continue to kill unborn helpless babies with a freaking heartbeat. His healthcare reform package approval by the Supreme Court sent the market in a downward spriral after this announcment of the ruling. How do you call that pulling the U.S. out of a depression?

How can you say he has helped the gays? Has there been any law passed that allows them anything resembling a marriage?

I will give you this, he is pulling the old Robin Hood thing, stealing from the rich, and giving to the poor, while the massive middle class is sitting stagnant. He is taking more and more of my money everyday. Something tells me my money went to you...I WANT IT BACK NOW!!!

President Obama promises to bring jobs back, while Mitt Romney promises to send more America jobs to India and China. See Bain Capital

Bain capital is in business to MAKE money and is very good at it!..

Obama is a POLITICIAN and is not very good at creating jobs..

Some people have to drive 60 miles a day, even if they are lucky enough to have a job.

What's he been doing for four years other than passing unconstitutional health care bills?

Oh, I know-Let's give all illegals amnesty..

Actually, new polling suggest the Bain argument is playing well in swing states like Ohio. No one but ignorant hicks want's an Outsourcer in Chief, which is exactly what Romney would be if elected president. "Tank yew for callin Whie Hou, dis Peggy, how may I direc you cawl?"

Let's get real if he can do it now, then why couldn't he have done it back in the beginning of all of the Unemployment Problems!!! He needs to do something to help the people who are not working and have been out of work for years. I am one of the 99er's, I have not had Unemployment Benefit in over a year and a half. It is getting harder to find a job, and over the last 3-1/2 years I have had only a few interviews.

God Bless all of Unemployed American's we need to say a pray that something changes and soon!!!

Sorry OweBama, we're not buying your rhetoric this time around..

What did you do for 4 YEARS?..Unemployment over 8% for a whole 4 year term-First time in history!

You'll need to create jobs for all the illegals you intend to grant amnesty..

looking forward to your political demise.
