This is complete crap. Who controlled Congress during the periods in question? Oh yeah, the Republicans.

It’s obvious that the right are playing dirty just as expected. They are spinning these rumors and propaganda to swing the undecided voter. I am not buying it. Obama at the very least will get this country back on her feet and producing jobs and begin to reduce the deficit, end the war, and bring some needed stability. I love this country too much to vote in another 4 years of greed and good ole boy politics. The repugs are out of touch. Spoken by a reformed repug turned democrat.

You need to bone up on your Constitution. NOBODY Controls Congress. They are just out there. Read “Herding cats” by Senator Lott.
Then you will understand that to ‘control’ Congress, you need a bunch of things to all happen at once. The last time Congress was ‘controlled’ was over 150 years ago, by a party that doesn’t exist today.
Checks and balances built into the Constitution and the rules Congress uses allow a minority to block the majority, if they really want to pay the price.
Then there are the various veto’s and the Supreme Court. What is the point of ‘controlling’ congress if the President kills anything they do or the SC declares it is unconstitutional? When did they stop teaching Civics in High School?
