There three comments below are completely accurate. The Graph is awfully wrong. Please remove it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.152.7.3 (talk) 22:28, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

please get the years accurate: the presidents are president from odd numbered years to odd numbered years. Reagan was prez from 1/20/81 to 1/20/89, noon of each day to noon of each day. It looks amature as is right now. Bush I, 1989-1993, Clinton 1993-2001, etc.Atrix20 (talk) 18:09, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

This graph is factually inaccurate. There was not "split control" of Congress during any point from 1995-June 2001 or from 2003- January 2007. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.16.152.11 (talk) 17:17, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

I think it should be removed. The data it is attempting to demonstrate is false. Look recently, after the elections in 2009-2010 congress would have been a "split" congress with the Republicans controlling the House and Democrats controlling the Senate (however, no longer a super majority). Without sources for the data in the graph it must be assumed false.(Dilly1979 (talk) 22:58, 11 September 2012 (UTC))

Logarithmic
From an economic and political point of view, wouldn't it make more sense to display this as logarithmic rather than linear? This way the percent difference by each year can be understood better. Zpowers (talk) 00:07, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

For the all the faults with this graph can it be removed? RacerMex
