Since Democrats took control (Jan. 2007):
 

# The price of oil has almost doubled
# Job growth has been cut in half (80,000 jobs lost in the last two months alone)
# The average family grocery bill has increased about $70 per month
# The stock market has lost about 10% of its value
# Home prices have fallen roughly 8%
# Consumer price inflation has increased over 4%, the largest calendar increase since the early 90s.

You should look up the definition of the word "control"...

And you think the democrats are responsible?

These are of course the faults of Democrats. It has nothing to do with the policy decisions over the past 7 years. It also has nothing to do with banks and borrowers being fucking morons for the past decade.

Thats because bush is still here so they can't do much. Once the idiot is out of here, we will all be better off

Maybe because every time they try and do something the republicans filibuster.

I think the dems should use the nuclear option that the repubs were always threatening to use.

Don't you worry, come next year things will be really different. Gonna be a landslide for the dems.
