Please...fact check me. I didn't spend all that much time figuring out (again) that Democrats "CONTROLLED CONGRESS" for a time-period of LESS THAN 50 DAYS in 2009. Given the power of the unneeded filibuster rule and the fully-revealed GOP party strategy, any simpleton can find the truth: Between the swearing-in of Al Franken in July, 2009 and the death of Ted Kennedy in August of that year, the Democrats did have a 60-vote membership in the US Senate. Forget the US House - matters always resolved by majority rule. So consider how many times we've heard the assertion: Democrats had control of Congress for THREE YEARS and they didn't get (insert something) done or they swung the US toward socialism or (yadayada....).
I just want to remind people here and elsewhere that this is just ONE of the MANY BIG LIES in play this election season.
Feel free to correct, revise or extend my remarks. I yield the balance of my time.
