Is this a fact? From what I can tell, it is not like Obama is taking away the focus from providing incentives to small businesses that will fuel the economy.

National debt reduced greatly, wages grew as industry boomed and more jobs were created. VERSUS The Bush-Cheney Admn. Record national debt, weakest job creation cycle since Great Depression, record bankruptcy rate and alarming increase in poverty. We are now a nation having gone from being the nation with biggest budget surplus in history to becoming the the one with largest deficit.

So again the tired old "tax and spend" allegations against Democrats are not true. So anyone who wants to regain financial health for themselves and their country...had best turn to history for the facts...
