JFK, Lyndon Johnson and Carter all had house and senate majorities during the lengths of their tenure. I cited the Roosevelt one of 12 unopposed years just to show how ludicrous your "i believes" usually are. You could simply check these things yourself and make a more meaningful claim in support of your position. But rather, you just let your narrative do the talking.

So as you noted, Obama had more "political muscle than any president in modern times." So for accuracy, just do us a favour and post the dates that Obama had his iron grip on the senate and the house.

We want the facts right, not some left or right wing narrative? Thank you in advance for backing up your initial claim.

For the record, I agree with you that Obama has made many, many mistakes on many fronts. He's been especially bad on one front that I think is the most important of all, and I've posted this multiple times. However, that displeasure doesn't give me latitude to make other stuff up about the man.
