The Reality of the Democratic Majority

So, it's been almost one year since Election Day 2006, when the Democrats gained a handsome majority in the U.S House and Senate. The 110th Congress was given a mandate by the people of America to begin making drastic changes - in particular, changes in the Iraq war. The Democratic majority, led by Nancy Pelosi in the House and Harry Reid in the Senate, unveiled a "Six for '06" agenda of what the new majority planned to do in its first 100 days.

Let me reiterate one more time - it's been almost a year since then, and what does the Democratic Congress have to show for it? Abysmal approval ratings and a track record of doing nothing.

The whole Pelosi-Reid show in Congress has become a failure. What have they got to show for their first year? Nothing!

Anyone remember the good old days of the "Contract with America"? Not only did the Republican Party pass nine out of ten goals [which is a lot more to say than the Democrats' "lofty" six point program] but it went on to produce balanced budgets and have higher approval ratings than the current Democratic majority.
