first win, after GWB lied the country into Iraq and had the biggest finacial collapse since the Great Depression our countrymen and woman saw fit to give the GOP the biggest midterm blowout win in modern history because the dems tried to start to fix our Healthcare system.

A repeated pattern where Rs leave the country a hot mess and stir up some kind of bullshit the country guzzles down like an oreo milkshake to take power yet again.
