   Get your facts right!   
      
   ·         The day the Democrats took over was NOT January 22nd   
   2009  -- it was actually January 3, 2007.   
      
   ·         That’s the day the Democrats took over BOTH the House   
   of Representatives & Senate, the start of the 110th Congress.   
      
   ·         The Democratic Party controlled a majority in BOTH   
   chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress   
   in 1995.

   For those of you who are listening to Liberals propagating the   
   fallacy that everything is "Bush's Fault"...   
   think about this:   
      
   January 3rd, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate   
   and the Congress (where the REAL power lies)  FROM the   
   Republicans:   
      
   At that time:   
      
   ·         The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77   
   ·         The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%   
   ·         The Unemployment rate was 4.6%   
      
   George Bush's Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT   
   MONTHS of JOB CREATION!

   Remember this day.   
      
      
   January 3rd, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over the   
   House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the   
   Senate Banking Committee.   
      
   The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in which   
   parts of the economy? BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!   
      
   THANK YOU DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS for voting to take us from a   
   12,600+ DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment to this CRISIS in   
   record time... by (among MANY other things) dumping 5-6 TRILLION   
   Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from Fannie Mae and   
   Freddie Mac   
      
   All this was done in three short years!   
      
   (BTW: - Beginning in 2001, Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to fix   
   Fannie & Freddie - because it was financially risky for the US   
   economy.  (Obviously, the Democrats ignored him every time).   
      
   Who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie   
   Mac?   OBAMA   
      
   And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie?  OBAMA &   
   the Democratic Congress   
      
      
   WHEN YOU VOTE ON NOVEMBER 2 -   REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED ON   
   JANUARY 3rd, 2007, THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!
