I think you’re missing the part about the Dems controlling the Senate for the first two years, and GWB never having a conservative majority in the Senate, ever.
By the way, the Dems had a supermajority and couldn’t get health care through. (Miraculously!)
Nice chart though.
You're putting words in my mouth. I'm not missing anything. It's right there on the chart. I didn't say he had a Senate majority in the first two years. I merely presented the chart which shows he had an unprecedented period where he could have accomplished a great deal and he did nothing to shrink the fed.
And I guess your "qualifying" majority in the Senate, ever by saying "conservative majority" as opposed to Republican majority - which he DID have from 2003-2007.
