El wrongo - at least in part: the Contract with America accomplished a lot. So good was it that Clinton was able to take credit for its successes in 96 against Dole/Kemp - and then take credit again launching Obama to re election in `12 - against Romney. Now I know you're going to bring up the Bush years, and you have a point, but the problem was they didn't want to oppose their own party's President. So 2000-2006 is a phony comparison.
That was not the last time they had control of everything.
Whatever Happened to the Contract with America?

Try reading what I wrote. I did not mention the Clinton years.
BTW, the Contract with America was 20 years ago, and that was the last time they did anything useful. How sad is it that their best work was with Clinton as POTUS?
Now I know you're going to bring up the Bush years, and you have a point, but the problem was they didn't want to oppose their own party's President. So 2000-2006 is a phony comparison.
Phony comparison?!?
Talking specifically about the feckless record of the Republican House and Senate, with a Republican president, and a majority Republican-appointed SCOTUS judges is a phony comparison?!? That's not a comparison, that's a statement of fact and history.
