It was because in the 2006 midterm elections the republican voters; and that included many freepers wanted to teach the GOP a lesson and so they sat the election out, which gave the majority of both houses to the rats and we know how that turned out. I have never forgiven them for that, and I will not forgive them if they do that again, especially since the rats only purpose is to impeach President Trump and remove him from Office

when GWB got a Dem congress look at the bills he signed.
