I'm not sure I understand your point. I'm not saying that Bush can "make" Congress do anything; however, he could have taken his case to the American people (as he did with Iraq) and asked for their support. Members of Congress listen to their constituites or they don't get re-elected. And Treasury could have proposed legislation (like they just did) before this. So if everyone knew this was coming, how come no one did anything?

But the truth is no matter whose fault it is, we are where we are. And I'm not smart enough to know if the bailout will fix things or just punt things. Apparently a lot of other people a lot smarter than me are in the same boat. I'm sitting here watching financial experts discussing this and they can't agree either.
