Bull Puckey!!! How could he be stonewalled by a Democratic Congress when both the House and Senate were taken over by a Republican majority in the Clinton years and hung on in power through out the last 8 years?

By the way, the Republican party wasn't founded until 1854. The Democratic party traces it's roots to James Madison and Thomas Jefferson, both signers of The Declaration of independence and authors and signers of The Constitution and they were both dead when the Republican party came into being. Rolling in their graves, I'm sure, at the resurgence of the Wigs they had striven so hard to rid our country of.
