19. Because of the Al Franken recount delay in '09 . . .

The democrats only had a 60 vote majority in the Senate for a total of 5 months in the 111th Congress, and that time was not contiguous because Franken wasn't seated until July of '09, then Ted Kennedy died and then Scott Brown defeated his dem replacement and the summer recess also interrupted that 5 month time period.

The repugs had the votes to filibuster and thus obstruct for most of the first two years that people like you claim there was a Democratic congress.

I don't agree with all of his policies either but if you're gonna list the things you don't like, list the things he accomplished also to be fair. You'll find the accomplishment list a lot longer.

And please don't exaggerate by saying he had a two-year dem majority.

That's just not factual.
