As for your last question about the willingness of Congress, I think Congress may very well have been willing to do some of these things, but Bush likes to veto a LOT.
Well, if they were really interested in good government, they could muster up the override.

But I'm totally with you that the last Republican Congress was craptacular and not up to the task.
