Under President Obama:
1. We pay less of a percentage of our personal income in federal taxes since any time since 1950.
2. Taxes are lower for the middle class now than when he took office.
3. Politifact says that Obama's statement that "taxes are lower now for CEO's and hedge fund managers than at any time since the 1950's" is 'mostly true'.
4. The Dow Jones has more than doubled since its nadir a couple months after President Obama took office.
5. President Obama got 'Obamacare' passed - and it was a REPUBLICAN idea pushed by the Heritage Foundation and Newt Gingrich until somebody with a (D) behind his name was able to get it passed.
6. President Obama will likely get immigration reform passed - and in a form that is much more conservative than Reagan's amnesty.
7. President Obama has deported more immigrants than any other president.
8. Bush gave up on Osama bin Laden - President Obama didn't.
9. AND Obama was able to get almost all of the above done despite the fact that he's had to deal with the most obstructive Congress since the Civil War!
If only Barack Hussein Obama had an (R) behind his name, he'd be called the Second Coming of Reagan by our nation's Republicans!
