According to a pair of Congressional experts the perception that Congress did not get anything done in 2007 is not accurate. Thomas Mann of the Brookings Institution said this year's sesson of Congress was definitely not a do nothing congress.
"In terms of new laws enacted, it compares favorably with the 104th Republican Congress which took office in 1994 elections," Mann said. According to him the 1994 congress failed to enact all but one provision of their Contract with America during its first year. By contrast most of the items on the Democratic new direction agaenda found they way into law. Norman Ornstein of the American Enterprise Institute also gave the 2007 congress a passing record. Congress's record looked worse that it was, he said. Both experts said that negative perceptions of congress resulted from not being able to end the war in Iraq, which they said was impossible give the democrats narrow margin, as well as the partisan bickering between republicans and president Bush. They also pointed out the accomplishments were made while Republicans and Bush did everything they could to slow down the progress. Given the perception of the Democratic congress on this forum I found this to be interesting.

I do not know what they fuck they were doing in 2007 but in 2008 the world caved in around their heads and I bet some of them knew it was coming....

One: this was a record non-response thread. Old Tool even highlighted that one time. But two, it remains true. The Democratic controlled congress under Nancy Pelosi was statistically more productive than any Republican controlled congress including Newt Gingrich. Look it up yourself

Pelosi failed to pass a budget for fiscal 2010 and it had to be done after the Republicans took over Congress in the 2010 elections.
EPIC FAIL! Why didn't Fearless Leader keep Pelosi and Reid in line after he got into the White House? Obama is a great candidate, but a lousy leader. The abject failure of Obama to handle Reid and Pelosi is a hallmark of his tenure. The clusterfuck the Democrats did after Obama was elected reminds me of Will Rogers, who famously said, "I am not part of an organized political party. I am a Democrat" Res ipsa loquitur

Did the Federal government get smaller under George H.W. Bush? The Federal Government sure as hell didn't get any smaller under W. Since 1980, there has been a Republican President for 2/3 of the time, but the Federal government never got smaller and has grown exponentially! Only mongoloids expect the Republicans to create a smaller Federal government. Sure, Republicans babble about it all the fucking time, but it never happens. The last President who passed a balanced budget was Bill Clinton. The last Republican President who passed a balanced budget was Eisenhower. Do the math, Ace.

No that would be you telling the lies Ace. Nearly all governments have been reduced and especially the federal govenment under President Obama and all you on the right can do is lie about that.

What all of you are missing is this congress ended their session in 2007 with President Bush still in the White House and just before the GOP caused Great Recession.
But if anything what this thread really represents is the huge gap between reality and people's political perceptions.

If you or I used insider trading we would be convicted of a felony and sent to prison for a very long time. As well as forfeiting all of our assets. Congress decided that insider trading would be legal for them only while SHE was in charge. She is as crooked as they all are, Democrats and Republicans. But somehow the liberals conveniently overlook this fact and only see one side as the problem. Go figure? Look it up yourself

Yes, this is true. How about all those Americans that lost their lives for no reason? You just can't put a price on that....

And you would have had him what?
Not go after Osama? Let terrorists have their sanctuary in the Mid east? Shrug and say it's only a couple of buildings in New York, what the hell? You may disagree with how he did it, but to even suggest that going after the terrorists in their lair after 9/11 was pointless is the cowards mantra. That was what Clinton did; he let the terrorists blow up our embassies, attack our marine barracks, and try to sink our ships, and the most he came up with was to lob a few tomahawks into the dessert. And I said it in 1993 when we left Somalia after Mogadishu; we'll just have to go back in there and clean up that shit pool. Say what you will about Bush; Clinton did more to advance the cause of terrorism against the US than any other president. If he had done the right thing then, I believe we'd never have had to live through 9/11. See, he missed the history lesson from WWII; never, ever back down from a bully. And you only negotiate with him once you have a boot firmly planted on his neck. Pointless war? Fuck that.

See I told you you were just bullshitting yourself Ace because all you could do is change your story. Change your claim because its nothing more than false propaganda to begin with.

You cannot say that 9/11 would not have happened if Clinton had done the right thing, there was plenty evidence that the planning was not done by Bin Laden, he apparently just provided financial support. You do not take out terrorism by invasion but by surgical strikes, that would have saved a few Brit and American lives.

It amazes me that he can just keep going in circles about this stuff. But that's what happens when you allow yourself to be brainwashed by people who are willing to tell you what you want to hear instead of what's actually happening.

We hear them screaming Social Security is insolvent. Its going broke. Its breaking the government and the nation. All lies but let's say that its true in 2036 or something like that the program will be paying our more than its taking in. Fine, lift the cap on contributions that favor again that !% and we make social security solvent for the next 70 years. Quote:
I point out again neither you nor your source could dispute the actual numbers and research. All you could do is fall back on your old favorite ad homenim logical fallacy. Which is your only choice when the facts prove you wrong.

Once again what was the national debt when Bush took office? What was the budget deficit? (Hint there wasn't one and you know it Ace)? How much did President Bush increase the National Debt? How much of President Obama first year budget is actually the budget Deficit Bush left him?
