Democrats haven't done much

Over two years ago the Democrats took over the running of Congress. They have not done a thing but complain about everything the president tries to accomplish.

The first six years of President Bush and a Republican Congress we had a good economy with only 4.5 percent unemployment. Now we have 5 percent, not that bad but a change. We have gas and oil at a price so high that many Americans are asking Congress to start drilling for the millions of barrels that lie off each coast and in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, but the liberals will not go against the environmentalists that control them.

Homes have lost value. They are anxious to surrender in a war that 77 percent voted to get into, and is now going very well thanks to the American military and President Bush wanting to achieve a victory. The Democrats are asking people to vote for the most far left presidential candidate this country has ever nominated, Barack Obama, a man that says we need change. Change to what, bigger government control of our lives, what we drive, or what we keep our home thermostats at, along with higher taxes? I hope not.
