MSNBC tried to do an article about the Republicans getting sworn in to Congress today.
The subheading was misleading:
"Republicans take charge of House, ending 2 years of Democratic dominance"
For the record, the House of Representatives was controlled by the Democrats since the 2006 elections (for which they were sworn in early January, 2007).
Simple math tells me 2011 - 2007 = 4.
Dems have been in control of the House of Representatives for four years - not the misleading two.
The misleading "two years" might be a reference to the past two years, when the House, Senate, and the President, were all Democratically controlled - but that was not stated in the article at the time I publish this.
