He's cut the budget. He's cut waste from Medicare. He's cut millions from Medicare waste to make the PPACA self-funding with no tax increase. The PPACA protects consumers. He's given multiple incentive tax breaks across the board to individuals and small businesses. He's shrunk the number of people in the federal government. The auto bailout is virtually paid back (Chrysler paid back all of theirs this week) and we still have an auto industry with all the associated jobs and supportive businesses. We are not in a depression. He's signed in multiple laws to protect citizens (Lilly ledbetter, etc). He's gotten us out of Iraq. He is drawing down in Afghanistan. He requested and received billions in defense spending cuts.
Etc., Etc, Etc.
