Nothing they could enact on such short notice would be productive or helpful. It's a classic demonstration of the Taoist maxim: don't just do something, stand there. Of course, such behaviour will further enrage those true-believers who still cling to the notion of government as God, and congressmen as the repository of all wisdom and knowledge. But those guys are usually perma-raged, anyways. Everybody's worried and cautious, which is a good, conservative mind-set. If I thought the crisis might bring out the New Democrat hidden deep in the soul of Barrack Obama, I'd be delerious. I am, after all, nominally a Democrat. We'll see if such a beast exists in the unknown centre of the Glorious Mirrorball. I haven't seen any such evidence as of yet.
