There must be a missing gene in the liberal mind or Michael Savage was right, liberalism is a mental illness. Democrats had control of the senate and the house for four years and they had the presidency for two (long long) years. What happened during that time besides "cash for clunkers" and the 3,000 page law they call "health care" which was struck down as unconstitutional by a federal judge? Republicans have had a majority only in the House for a little over two months. The GOP has to deal with crazies like Harry Reid who would obstruct everything the GOP wants to do and a vice president who is literally short a few million brain cells. Factor in the kid neo-socialist president who flees the Country every time the going gets rough and it's a wonder anything gets done. Be patient, the GOP has already forced the president to open oil drilling sites for American companies rather than communist regimes. We have a new (unconstitutional?) military conflict that republicans have to deal with and possibly impeachment proceedings.
Ya sure, Vilson.
Another squawk and holler Neo-Con, without the slightest concept of reality.
