I have been thinking about Bush using a Truman tactic for some time--now I see others are thinking the same way. Bush needs to call Congress back into session and have the Democrat leadership deal with the energy issue.
Bush could then deliver a message where he asks Congress to do their jobs - legislate (!!), for example:
(1) address the energy/gas crisis (i.e, offshore drilling and/or nuclear); and/or
(2) pass a budget — they have yet to pass one appropriations bill this year
because as Pelosi and Reid admitted — they are waiting for Obama to
become president to do a budget, which btw — is simply irresponsible and wrong.
I believe that the Democrats would whine and not pass a thing. Then Bush and McCain could hammer them for being a "do-nothing Congress."
