I have been a member of this board for less then a day and I have read a few misinformed replies about blaming the republicans for all that is wrong with this country. I am here to set the record straight.
Since 1945 the democrats have controlled the house all but 7 times
From 1949 to 1993 the Democrats have controlled the house.
= 44years
2006 until the present the Democrats have controlled the house.
=4 years
