First,    Please do send me your sources that support your belief that the Dems commanded congress during times when the Repubs called the shots on redistricting!  I am prepared for a long wait!

Second,    While looking for info that is non-existant please read your post and then read mine CRD.  You claimed (incorrectly) that even though Repups held the same advantage for 2 decades the Dem still had majorities.  That is simply not a fact...look it up! Dems controlled more state houses prior to 2010 and they used their redistricting advantage to dominate congress too.  When that changed to advantage GOP the gerrymandering reversed and the Repubs took over.  Those are the facts. 

Third,    I agree that gerrymandering and other forms of politically based districting has been around for a long time.  The point is I think it is not fair or good practice then or now.  Obviouslly you think it is fine...at least as long as it is the Republicans are calling the shots.  Now, how about an answer to my question...will you consider it just as benign a practice when it is the Democrats doing it?
