I also remember Trent Lott’s agreeing to “sharing” power with the Democrats when the senate was 50-50. Also remember the 108th senate was 51-49 GOP with Snowe, Collins and Specter as well as other left leaning senators.

The reality is GW Bush only had a favorable split in the senate for the 109th, having 55 GOP senators. That’s two of 8 years as we lost all of congress in 2006.

Excellent point. I bring this up whenever and wherever I can. It neutralizes a lot of their arguments.GW’s last two years were dominated by a hostile commie Congress.He was not able to get much done being averse to self legislating like we see with the current regime.
